Berean Standard Bible
KJV
King James Version
We who
are strong ought to bear with
the shortcomings
of the weak and not to please ourselves.
We then
that
are strong ought to bear the infirmities
of the weak ,
and not to please ourselves.
Each
of us should
please his neighbor
for his good ,
to build
him
up
.
Let
every
one
of us please his neighbour
for his good to edification
.
For even Christ did
not please
Himself ,
but as it is written :
“
The insults
of those
who
insult
You
have
fallen
on Me. ”
For even Christ pleased
not himself ;
but ,
as it is written ,
The reproaches
of them
that
reproached
thee
fell
on me.
For everything
that
was
written in
the
past
was
written for our instruction
, so
that through endurance
and the
encouragement
of the Scriptures ,
we
might have hope.
For whatsoever
things
were
written aforetime
were
written for our learning
, that we
through patience
and comfort
of the scriptures might have hope.
Now may
the God who
gives
endurance
and encouragement
grant you harmony
with
one another in
Christ Jesus ,
Now the God of
patience
and consolation
grant you to
be
likeminded
one toward
another according
to
Christ Jesus :
so
that with one mind and one voice
you
may
glorify the
God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
That ye
may
with one mind and one mouth
glorify God ,
even
the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Accept
one another, then,
just
as Christ accepted
you,
in
order
to bring
glory to
God.
Wherefore
receive
ye
one another, as Christ also
received
us
to the
glory of
God.
For
I tell
you
that Christ has
become
a servant
of the circumcised
on
behalf
of
God’s
truth, to confirm the promises made to
the patriarchs,
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:
so
that the Gentiles may
glorify God for His mercy .
As it is written :
“Therefore
I will praise
You
among the Gentiles ;
I
will
sing hymns
to
Your
name. ”
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.
Again, it
says:
“
Rejoice, O
Gentiles, with His people. ”
And
again he
saith
, Rejoice, ye
Gentiles, with his people.
And again :
“
Praise the Lord, all you
Gentiles ,
and extol
Him, all you
peoples
. ”
And again ,
Praise the Lord, all ye
Gentiles ;
and laud
him, all ye
people
.
And once
more
, Isaiah
says:
“The
Root of Jesse will
appear
, One
who
will
arise
to rule
over the Gentiles; in Him the Gentiles will
put
their
hope
. ”
And again
, Esaias
saith,
There
shall
be
a
root of Jesse, and
he
that
shall
rise
to reign
over the Gentiles; in him shall
the Gentiles trust
.
Now may
the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as
you
believe
in Him
, so
that you
may overflow
with
hope by
the power of the Holy Spirit
.
Now 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
.
I myself am convinced
, my brothers
, that you
yourselves
are full of goodness, brimming
with knowledge, and
able to instruct
one another.
And
I myself also
am persuaded
of
you
, my brethren
, that ye
also
are full of goodness, filled
with all
knowledge, able also
to admonish
one another.
However
, I have written you a
bold
reminder
on
some points
, because of the grace God
has
given me
Nevertheless
, brethren,
I have written the
more
boldly
unto
you in
some sort
, as
putting
you
in
mind,
because of the grace that
is
given to
me of
God,
to
be a
minister of Christ
Jesus to the Gentiles in
the
priestly
service
of
the gospel of God, so
that the Gentiles might become
an
offering
acceptable to
God
, sanctified by the Holy Spirit
.
That
I
should
be the
minister of Jesus Christ
to the Gentiles ,
ministering
the gospel of God, that the offering
up
of
the
Gentiles might be
acceptable, being
sanctified by the Holy Ghost
.
Therefore I exult
in
Christ
Jesus in my
service
to God.
I
have
therefore whereof
I may
glory
through
Jesus Christ
in those
things
which
pertain
to God.
I will not presume
to speak of anything
except
what
Christ has
accomplished
through
me in
leading
the Gentiles to
obedience
by word and deed,
For
I will not dare
to speak of any
of
those
things
which
Christ hath
not
wrought
by
me ,
to
make
the Gentiles obedient,
by word and deed,
by
the
power
of
signs and wonders, and
by the power of the Spirit of God .
So from Jerusalem all
the
way
around
to
Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed
the gospel of Christ.
Through
mighty
signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God ;
so that
from Jerusalem ,
and
round
about
unto
Illyricum, I have fully preached
the gospel of Christ.
In
this
way
I
have aspired
to preach the gospel where Christ was not
known
, so
that
I would
not
be
building
on
someone
else’s
foundation .
Yea,
so
have I
strived
to preach the gospel ,
not
where Christ was named
, lest
I should
build
upon
another
man's
foundation :
Rather,
as it is written :
“Those
who
were
not told
about
Him
will
see
, and those
who
have not heard will
understand. ”
But
as it is written ,
To
whom
he
was
not spoken
of
, they
shall
see:
and they
that
have not heard shall
understand.
That
is
why
I have often
been hindered from coming to you.
For
which
cause
also
I have been much
hindered from coming to you.
But now that
there
are
no further
opportunities
for
me
in these regions
, and since
I
have
longed
for
many years to visit
you ,
But now having
no more
place
in these parts
, and having
a
great
desire
these
many years to come
unto
you ;
I hope
to see you on my way to
Spain.
And
after
I have
enjoyed
your company for
a
while,
you
can
equip
me
for
my
journey
.
Whensoever
I take
my
journey
into
Spain,
I
will
come
to you:
for
I
trust
to
see you in
my
journey,
and
to
be
brought
on my way thitherward
by
you,
if
first
I be
somewhat
filled
with
your company.
Now ,
however,
I am
on
my
way
to
Jerusalem to serve
the saints there
.
But
now I go
unto
Jerusalem to minister
unto
the saints.
For Macedonia and Achaia were
pleased
to make a contribution for the poor among
the
saints in
Jerusalem.
For it
hath
pleased
them
of
Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain
contribution for the poor saints which
are
at
Jerusalem.
They
were
pleased
to
do
it ,
and indeed
they owe
it
to
them
. For if the Gentiles have shared
in
their spiritual blessings
, they
are
obligated
to minister to
them with
material
blessings
.
It hath
pleased
them
verily;
and their
debtors
they are
. For if the Gentiles have been
made
partakers
of
their spiritual things
, their
duty
is
also
to minister unto
them in
carnal
things
.
So
after
I have completed
this service
and have safely
delivered
this
bounty
to them, I will set
off
to
Spain
by way
of
you.
When
therefore
I have performed
this ,
and have sealed
to them this
fruit
, I will come
by you into
Spain
.
I know
that when I come to
you, I will
come in the fullness
of the blessing of Christ.
And
I am
sure
that ,
when I come unto
you, I shall
come in the fulness
of the blessing of the
gospel
of
Christ.
Now I urge
you, brothers
, by
our
Lord Jesus Christ
and by
the love of the Spirit, to
join
me in my
struggle
by
praying
to God for me .
Now I beseech
you, brethren
, for
the
Lord Jesus Christ's
sake,
and for
the love of the Spirit, that
ye
strive
together
with
me in your
prayers
to God for me ;
Pray
that I may be delivered from the
unbelievers
in Judea,
and that my service in
Jerusalem may be acceptable
to
the saints there,
That I may be delivered from them
that
do
not
believe
in Judaea;
and that my service which
I
have
for
Jerusalem may be accepted
of
the saints ;
so
that by
God’s
will
I may come to
you with joy and together
with you be refreshed.
That I may come unto
you with joy by
the
will
of
God,
and may
with you be refreshed.
The God of peace be with all
of
you. Amen.
Now
the God of peace be with you all
. Amen.
