Romans 15:1-13 - Accept One Another According To Christ's Example

¹ Now we the strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the frail, and not to please ourselves. ² Let each of us please his neighbor for what is good toward edification. ³ For Christ also did not please himself, but as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell upon me. ⁴ For as many things as were written previously were written for our learning, so that through perseverance and through the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope. ⁵ Now may the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to think the same way among each other, in accord with Christ Jesus, ⁶ so that unanimously, with one mouth, ye may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁷ Therefore receive ye each other, just as Christ also received you for the glory of God. ⁸ And I say, Christ Jesus became a helper of men of circumcision, for the sake of God's truth (in order to confirm the promises of the fathers), ⁹ and the Gentiles, for the sake of mercy, to glorify God, as it is written, Because of this I will give thanks to thee among Gentiles, and will sing to thy name.

¹⁰ And again he says, Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people. ¹¹ And again, Praise ye the Lord all nations, and let all the peoples praise him.

¹² And again, Isaiah says, There will be the root of Jesse, and he who arises to reign over Gentiles. In him Gentiles will hope.

¹³ Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, for ye to abound in hope in the power of Holy Spirit.
