| 1 | Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves. | Ro 4:20 1Co 4:10 2Co 12:10 Eph 6:10 2Ti 2:1 1Jn 2:14 |
| 2 | Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up. | Ro 14:19 1Co 9:19-22 1Co 10:24 1Co 10:33 1Co 11:1 1Co 13:5 Php 2:4 Php 2:5 Tit 2:9 Tit 2:10 |
| 3 | For Christ also didn`t please himself. But, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me." | Ps 40:6-8 Mt 26:39 Mt 26:42 Jn 4:34 Jn 5:30 Jn 6:38 Jn 8:29 Jn 12:27 Jn 12:28 Jn 14:30 Jn 14:31 Jn 15:10 Php 2:8 |
| 4 | For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope. | Ro 4:23 Ro 4:24 1Co 9:9 1Co 9:10 1Co 10:11 2Ti 3:16 2Ti 3:17 2Pe 1:20 2Pe 1:21 |
| 5 | Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus, | Ro 15:13 Ex 34:6 Ps 86:5 1Pe 3:20 2Pe 3:9 2Pe 3:15 |
| 6 | that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. | Ro 15:9-11 Zep 3:9 Zc 13:9 Ac 4:24 Ac 4:32 |
| 7 | Therefore receive one another, even as Christ also received you, to the glory of God. | Ro 14:1-3 Mt 10:40 Mk 9:37 Lk 9:48 |
| 8 | Now I say that Christ has been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers, | Ro 3:26 1Co 1:12 1Co 10:19 1Co 10:29 1Co 15:50 |
| 9 | and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "Therefore will I give praise to you among the Gentiles, And sing to your name." | 2Sa 22:50 Ps 18:49 |
| 10 | Again he says, "Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people." | Dt 32:43 Ps 66:1-4 Ps 67:3 Ps 67:4 Ps 68:32 Ps 97:1 Ps 98:3 Ps 98:4 Ps 138:4 Ps 138:5 Isa 24:14-16 Isa 42:10-12 |
| 11 | Again, "Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles! Let all the peoples praise him." | Ps 117:1 |
| 12 | Again, Isaiah says, "There will be the root of Jesse, He who arises to rule over the Gentiles; On him will the Gentiles hope." | Isa 11:1 Isa 11:10 Rev 5:5 Rev 22:16 |
| 13 | Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit. | Ro 15:5 Jer 14:8 Jl 3:16 1Ti 1:1 |
| 14 | I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others. | Php 1:7 2Ti 1:5 Phm 1:21 Heb 6:9 2Pe 1:12 1Jn 2:21 |
| 15 | But I write the more boldly to you in some measure, as putting you again in memory, because of the grace that was given to me by God, | Heb 13:22 1Pe 5:12 1Jn 2:12-14 1Jn 5:13 Jud 1:3-5 |
| 16 | that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit. | Ro 15:18 Ro 11:13 Ac 9:15 Ac 13:2 Ac 22:21 Ac 26:17 Ac 26:18 1Co 3:5 1Co 4:1 2Co 5:20 2Co 11:23 Ga 2:7 Ga 2:8 Eph 3:1 Php 2:17 1Ti 2:7 2Ti 1:11 |
| 17 | I have therefore my boasting in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God. | Ro 4:2 2Co 2:14-16 2Co 3:4-6 2Co 7:4 2Co 11:16-30 2Co 12:1 2Co 12:11-21 |
| 18 | For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed, | Pr 25:14 2Co 10:13-18 2Co 11:31 2Co 12:6 Jud 1:9 |
| 19 | in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God`s Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ; | Ac 14:10 Ac 15:12 Ac 16:18 Ac 19:11 Ac 19:12 2Co 12:12 Ga 3:5 Heb 2:4 |
| 20 | yes, making it my aim so to preach the gospel, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build on another man`s foundation. | 2Co 10:14-16 |
| 21 | But, as it is written, "They will see, to whom no news of him came. They who haven`t heard will understand." | Isa 52:15 Isa 65:1 |
| 22 | Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you, | Ro 1:13 1Th 2:17 1Th 2:18 |
| 23 | but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you, | Ro 15:32 Ro 1:10-12 1Th 3:10 2Ti 1:4 |
| 24 | whenever I journey to Spain, I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while. | Ro 15:28 Ac 19:21 |
| 25 | But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints. | Ro 15:26-31 Ac 18:21 Ac 19:21 Ac 20:16 Ac 20:22 Ac 24:17 1Co 16:1-3 Ga 2:10 |
| 26 | For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem. | Ac 11:27-30 2Co 8:1-9 Ga 6:6-10 |
| 27 | Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things. | Ro 11:17 1Co 9:11 Ga 6:6 Phm 1:19 |
| 28 | When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by you to Spain. | Php 4:17 Col 1:6 |
| 29 | I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ. | Ro 1:11 Ro 1:12 Ps 16:11 Ezk 34:26 Eph 1:3 Eph 3:8 Eph 3:19 Eph 4:13 |
| 30 | Now I beg you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me, | 2Co 4:5 2Co 4:11 2Co 12:10 1Ti 6:13 1Ti 6:14 2Ti 4:1 |
| 31 | that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints; | Ac 21:27-31 Ac 22:24 Ac 23:12-24 Ac 24:1-9 Ac 25:2 Ac 25:24 1Th 2:15 2Th 3:2 |
| 32 | that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest. | Ro 15:23 Ro 15:24 Ro 1:10-13 Ac 27:1 Ac 27:41-43 Ac 28:15 Ac 28:16 Ac 28:30 Ac 28:31 Php 1:12-14 |
| 33 | Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen. | Ro 16:20 1Co 14:33 2Co 5:19 2Co 5:20 2Co 13:11 Php 4:9 1Th 5:23 2Th 3:16 Heb 13:20 |
