Whatsoever things are written aforetime, are written for our learning: that we, through patience and comfort of the scripture, might have hope.

The God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may be rich in hope through the power of the holy ghost.

We which are strong ought to bear the frailness of them which are weak, and not to stand in our own conceits.

I have, therefore, whereof I may rejoice in Christ Jesus, in those things which pertain to God.

The God of patience and consolation give unto every one of you, that ye be like likeminded one towards another after the example of Jesus Christ:

Wherefore receive ye one another as Christ received us, to the praise of God.

I myself am full certified of you, my brethren, that ye yourselves are full of goodness, and filled with all knowledge, and are able to exhort one another.

For I dare not speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the gentiles obedient, with word and deed,

in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the spirit of God: so that from Jerusalem and the coasts round about, unto Illyricum, I have filled all countries with glad tidings of Christ.

but as it is written, "To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that heard not, shall understand."

but now seeing I have no more to do in these countries, and also have been desirous many years to come unto you,

when I shall take my journey into Spain, I will come to you. I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you after that I have somewhat enjoyed you.

When I have performed this, and have brought them this fruit sealed, I will come back again by you into Spain.

For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia, to make a certain distribution upon the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.

For this cause I have been oft let to come unto you:

It hath pleased them verily, and their debtors are they. For if the gentiles be made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is to minister unto them in carnal things.

The God of peace be with all you Amen.

And I am sure when I come, that I shall come with abundance of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

Now go I unto Jerusalem, and minister unto the saints.

Let every man please his neighbor unto his wealth and edifying.

that I may be delivered from them which believe not in Jewry; and that this my service, which I have to Jerusalem, may be accepted of the saints,

And I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers.

for this purpose: that I should be the minister of Jesus Christ among the gentiles, and should minister the glad tidings of God, that the gentiles might be an acceptable offering, sanctified by the holy ghost.

I beseech you brethren for our Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the spirit, that ye help me in my business, with your prayers to God for me,

And let the gentiles praise God for his mercy. As it is written, "For this cause I will praise thee among the gentiles, and sing in thy name."

that ye, all agreeing together, may with one mouth praise God the father of our Lord Jesus.

For Christ pleased not himself: but as it is written, "The rebukes of them which rebuked thee, fell on me."

So have I enforced myself to preach the gospel: not where Christ was named, lest I should have built on another man's foundation,

And in another place Isaiah saith, "There shall be the root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the gentiles: in him shall the gentiles trust."

Nevertheless, brethren, I have somewhat boldly written unto you, as one that putteth you in remembrance, through the grace that is given me of God

that I may come unto you with joy, by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.

And again he saith, "Ye gentiles rejoice with his people."

And again, "Praise the Lord all ye gentiles, and laud him all nations."
