Romans 15:4-13 For whatsoever things were written aforetime, were written for our instruction, that we, through patience and consolation of the scriptures, may have hope.

Wesley⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ For whatsoever things were written aforetime, were written for our instruction, that we, through patience and consolation of the scriptures, may have hope. ⁵ Now the God of patience and consolation give you to think the same thing, according to Christ Jesus, ⁶ That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁷ Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also hath received you, to the glory of God. ⁸ Now I say, Christ Jesus was a servant of the circumcision, for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to 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 faith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and one arising to rule over the Gentiles: in him shall the Gentiles hope. ¹³ Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, by the power of the Holy Ghost.
