Romans 15:1-13

21st Century King James Version

15 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

² Let every one of us please his neighbor for his good to edification.

³ For even Christ pleased not Himself, but as it is written: “The reproaches of them that reproached Thee fell on Me.”

⁴ For whatsoever things were written in times past, were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.

⁵ Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another, according to Christ Jesus,

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

⁷ Therefore receive ye one another as Christ also received us, to the glory of God.

⁸ Now I say, that Jesus Christ was a minister of the Circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers,

⁹ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy; as it is written: “For this cause I will confess to Thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto Thy name.”

¹⁰ And again he saith, “Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with His people.”

¹¹ And again, “Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles, and laud Him, all ye people.”

¹² And again Isaiah saith, “There shall be a Root of Jesse, and He that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, in Him shall the Gentiles trust.”

¹³ Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope through the power of the Holy Ghost.
