Romans 15:1-13

Darby Translation

15 But *we* ought, we that are strong, to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

² Let each one of us please his neighbour with a view to what is good, to edification.

³ For the Christ also did not please himself; but according as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproach thee have fallen upon me.

⁴ For as many things as have been written before have been written for our instruction, that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

⁵ Now the God of endurance and of encouragement give to you to be like-minded one toward another, according to Christ Jesus;

⁶ that ye may with one accord, with one mouth, glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁷ Wherefore receive ye one another, according as the Christ also has received you to [the] glory of God.

⁸ For I say that Jesus Christ became a minister of [the] circumcision for [the] truth of God, to confirm the promises of the fathers;

⁹ and that the nations should glorify God for mercy; according as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among [the] nations, and will sing to thy name.

¹⁰ And again he says, Rejoice, nations, with his people.

¹¹ And again, Praise the Lord, all [ye] nations, and let all the peoples laud him.

¹² And again, Esaias says, There shall be the root of Jesse, and one that arises, to rule over [the] nations: in him shall [the] nations hope.

¹³ Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that ye should abound in hope by [the] power of [the] Holy Spirit.
