Romans 15 We then who are strong, ought to bear the infirmity of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ We then who are strong, ought to bear the infirmity of the weak, and not to please ourselves. ² But each of us should please his neighbor, in good things, as conducive to edification. ³ Because Messiah also did not please himself; but, as it is written: The reviling of thy revilers fell upon me. ⁴ For every thing written of old, was written for our instruction; that we, by patience and by the consolation of the scriptures, might possess hope. ⁵ And may the God of patience and of consolation, grant to you, to think in harmony one with another, in Jesus Messiah; ⁶ so that with one mind and one mouth, ye may glorify God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Messiah. ⁷ Wherefore, receive ye and bear up one another, as also Messiah received you, to the glory of God. ⁸ Now I say, that Jesus Messiah ministered to the circumcision, in behalf of the truth of God, in order to confirm the promise made to the fathers; ⁹ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercies upon them, as it is written: I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and to thy name will I sing psalms. ¹⁰ And again he said: Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. ¹¹ And again he said: Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye nations. ¹² And again Isaiah said: There will be a root of Jesse; and he that shall arise, will be a prince for the Gentiles; and in him will the Gentiles hope. ¹³ Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace, by faith; that ye may abound in his hope, by the power of the Holy Spirit. ¹⁴ Now I am persuaded, my Brethren, even I, concerning you; that ye too are full of goodness, and are replenished with all knowledge, and are able also to instruct others. ¹⁵ Yet I have written rather boldly to you, my Brethren, that I might put you in remembrance; because of the grace which is given to me by God, ¹⁶ that I should be a minister of Jesus Messiah among the Gentiles, and should subserve the gospel of God, that the oblation of the Gentiles might be acceptable, and be sanctified by the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ I have therefore a glorying in Jesus Messiah, before God. ¹⁸ Yet I presume not to speak of any thing done for the obedience of the Gentiles, which Messiah hath not wrought by me, in word and in deeds, ¹⁹ by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Holy Spirit; so that from Jerusalem I have made a circuit quite to Illyricum, and have fulfilled the announcement of the Messiah; ²⁰ while I was careful not to preach where the name of Messiah had been invoked, lest I should build upon another man's foundation; ²¹ but, it is written: They, to whom mention of him had not been made, will see him; and they, who had not heard, will be obedient. ²² And on this account, I have been many times prevented from coming to you. ²³ But now, since I have no place in these regions, and as I have been desirous for many years past to come to you, ²⁴ when I go to Spain, I hope to come and see you; and that ye will accompany me thither, when I shall have been satisfied, in some measure, with visiting you. ²⁵ But I am now going to Jerusalem, to minister to the saints. ²⁶ For they of Macedonia and Achaia, have been willing to make up a contribution for the needy saints who are at Jerusalem. ²⁷ They were willing, because they were also debtors to them: for if the Gentiles have been participators with them in the Spirit, they are debtors to serve them also in things of the flesh. ²⁸ When therefore, I shall have accomplished this, and shall have sealed to them this fruit, I will pass by you into Spain. ²⁹ And I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Messiah. ³⁰ And I beseech you, my Brethren, by our Lord Jesus Messiah, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye labor with me in prayer to God for me; ³¹ that I may be delivered from them in Judaea, who believe not and that the ministration, which I carry to the saints in Jerusalem, may be well received; ³² and that, by the good pleasure of God, I may come to you with joy, and may take comfort with you. ³³ And may the God of peace be with you all: Amen.
