Romans 15

1 The strong must bear with the weak. 2 We may not please ourselves, 3 for Christ did not so, 7 but receive one the other, as Christ did us all, 8 both Jews 9 and Gentiles. 15 Paul excuseth his writing, 28 and promiseth to see them, 30 and requesteth their prayers.

 15:1 ¶ We 2249 then 1161 that are strong 1415 ought 3784 z5719 to bear 941 z5721 the x3588 infirmities 771 of the x3588 weak, 102 and 2532 not 3361 to please 700 z5721 ourselves. 1438

 15:2 y1063 Let y700 z0 x1063 every one 1538 of us 2257 please 700 z5720 [his] neighbour 4139 for 1519 [his] good 18 to 4314 edification. 3619

 15:3 For 1063 even 2532 Christ 5547 pleased 700 z5656 not 3756 himself; 1438 but, 235 as 2531 it is written, 1125 z5769 The x3588 reproaches 3680 of them that reproached 3679 z5723 thee 4571 fell 1968 z5627 on 1909 me. 1691

 15:4 For 1063 whatsoever things 3745 were written aforetime 4270 z5648 were written 4270 z5648 for 1519 our 2251 learning, 1319 that 2443 we y2192 z0 through 1223 patience 5281 and 2532 comfort 3874 of the x3588 scriptures 1124 might have 2192 z5725 hope. 1680

 15:5 Now 1161 the x3588 God 2316 of patience 5281 and 2532 consolation 3874 grant 1325 z5630 you 5213 to be y846 likeminded 5426 z5721 x846 one y240 z0 toward another 1722 240 according 2596 to Christ 5547 Jesus: 2424

 15:6 That 2443 ye may y1392 z0 with one mind 3661 [and] 1722 one 1520 mouth 4750 glorify 1392 z5725 God, 2316 even 2532 the Father 3962 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 15:7 Wherefore 1352 receive x4355 ye y4355 z5732 one another, 240 as 2531 y2532 z0 Christ 5547 also y2531 x2532 received 4355 z5639 us 2248 to 1519 the glory 1391 of God. 2316

 15:8 Now 1161 I say 3004 z5719 that Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 was 1096 z5771 a minister 1249 of the circumcision 4061 for 5228 the truth 225 of God, 2316 to y1519 confirm 950 z5658 the x3588 promises 1860 [made] unto the x3588 fathers: 3962

 15:9 And 1161 that the x3588 Gentiles 1484 might glorify 1392 z5658 God 2316 for 5228 [his] mercy; 1656 as 2531 it is written, 1125 z5769 For y1223 z0 this y5124 cause 1223 x5124 I will confess 1843 z5698 to thee 4671 among 1722 the Gentiles, 1484 and 2532 sing 5567 z5692 unto thy 4675 name. 3686

 15:10 And 2532 again 3825 he saith, 3004 z5719 Rejoice, x2165 ye y2165 z5682 Gentiles, 1484 with 3326 his y846 x848 people. 2992

 15:11 And 2532 again, 3825 Praise 134 z0 the x3588 Lord, 2962 all 3956 ye y134 z5720 Gentiles; 1484 and 2532 laud 1867 z5657 him, 846 all x3956 ye y3956 people. 2992

 15:12 And 2532 again, 3825 Esaias 2268 saith, 3004 z5719 There shall be 2071 z5704 a root 4491 of Jesse, 2421 and 2532 he that shall rise 450 z5734 to reign over 757 z5721 the Gentiles; 1484 in 1909 him 846 shall y1679 z0 the Gentiles 1484 trust. 1679 z5692

 15:13 Now 1161 the x3588 God 2316 of hope 1680 fill 4137 z5659 you 5209 with all 3956 joy 5479 and 2532 peace 1515 in y1722 believing, 4100 z5721 that y1519 ye 5209 may abound 4052 z5721 in 1722 hope, 1680 through 1722 the power 1411 of the Holy 40 Ghost. 4151

 15:14 And 1161 I 1473 myself y846 x848 also 2532 am persuaded 3982 z5769 of 4012 you, 5216 my 3450 brethren, 80 that 3754 ye y846 x848 also 2532 are 2075 z5748 full 3324 of goodness, 19 filled 4137 z5772 with all 3956 knowledge, 1108 able 1410 z5740 also 2532 to admonish 3560 z5721 one another. 240

 15:15 Nevertheless, 1161 brethren, 80 I have written 1125 z5656 the more boldly 5112 unto you 5213 in y575 some sort, 3313 x575 as 5613 putting y1878 z0 you y5209 in mind, 1878 z5723 x5209 because 1223 of the x3588 grace 5485 that is given 1325 z5685 to me 3427 of 5259 God, 2316

 15:16 That I y3165 should x3165 be 1511 y1519 z5750 the minister 3011 of Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 to 1519 the x3588 Gentiles, 1484 ministering 2418 z5723 the x3588 gospel 2098 of God, 2316 that 2443 the x3588 offering up 4376 of the x3588 Gentiles 1484 might be 1096 z5638 acceptable, 2144 being sanctified 37 z5772 by 1722 the Holy 40 Ghost. 4151

 15:17 I have 2192 z5719 therefore x3767 whereof y3767 I may glory 2746 through 1722 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 in those things which pertain x4314 to y4314 God. 2316

 15:18 For 1063 I will y5111 z0 not 3756 dare 5111 z5692 to speak 2980 z5721 of any 5100 of those things x3739 which y3739 Christ 5547 hath y2716 z0 not 3756 wrought 2716 z5662 by 1223 me, 1700 to x1519 make y1519 the Gentiles y1484 obedient, 5218 x1484 by word 3056 and 2532 deed, 2041

 15:19 Through 1722 mighty 1411 signs 4592 and 2532 wonders, 5059 by 1722 the power 1411 of the Spirit 4151 of God; 2316 so y5620 that x5620 from 575 Jerusalem, 2419 and 2532 round about 2945 unto 3360 Illyricum, 2437 I 3165 have fully preached 4137 z5760 the x3588 gospel 2098 of Christ. 5547

 15:20 Yea, 1161 so 3779 have I strived 5389 z5740 to preach the gospel, 2097 z5733 not 3756 where 3699 Christ 5547 was named, 3687 z5681 lest 3363 I should build 3618 z5725 upon 1909 another man's 245 foundation: 2310

 15:21 But 235 as 2531 it is written, 1125 z5769 To whom 3739 he y846 was y312 z0 not 3756 spoken 312 z5648 of, 4012 they x846 shall see: 3700 z5695 and 2532 they 3739 that have y191 z0 not 3756 heard 191 z5754 shall understand. 4920 z5704

 15:22 For which cause 1352 also 2532 I have been y1465 z0 much 4183 hindered 1465 z5712 from coming 2064 z5629 to 4314 you. 5209

 15:23 But 1161 now 3570 having 2192 z5723 no more 3371 place 5117 in 1722 these 5125 y575 parts, 2824 and 1161 having 2192 z5723 a great desire 1974 these x575 many 4183 years 2094 to come 2064 z5629 unto 4314 you; 5209

 15:24 Whensoever 5613 1437 I take my journey 4198 z5741 into 1519 Spain, 4681 I will come 2064 z5695 to 4314 you: 5209 for 1063 I trust 1679 z5719 to see 2300 z5664 you 5209 in my journey, 1279 z5740 and 2532 to be brought on my way 4311 z5683 thitherward 1563 by 5259 you, 5216 if 1437 first 4412 I be y1705 z0 somewhat 3313 x575 filled 1705 z5686 with y575 your 5216 [company].

 15:25 But 1161 now 3570 I go 4198 z5736 unto 1519 Jerusalem 2419 to minister y1247 z5723 unto x1247 the x3588 saints. 40

 15:26 For 1063 it hath pleased x2106 them y2106 z5656 of Macedonia 3109 and 2532 Achaia 882 to make 4160 z5670 a certain 5100 contribution 2842 for 1519 the x3588 poor 4434 saints 40 which 3588 are at 1722 Jerusalem. 2419

 15:27 It hath pleased x2106 them y2106 z5656 verily; 1063 and 2532 their y846 x848 debtors 3781 they are. 1526 z5748 For 1063 if 1487 the x3588 Gentiles 1484 have been made partakers 2841 z5656 of their y846 x848 spiritual things, 4152 their duty x3784 is y3784 z5719 also 2532 to minister 3008 z5658 unto them 846 in y1722 carnal things. 4559

 15:28 When therefore 3767 I have performed 2005 z5660 this, 5124 and 2532 have sealed 4972 z5671 to them 846 this 5126 fruit, 2590 I will come 565 z5695 by 1223 you 5216 into 1519 Spain. 4681

 15:29 And 1161 I am sure 1492 z5758 that, 3754 when I come 2064 z5740 unto 4314 you, 5209 I shall come 2064 z5695 in 1722 the fulness 4138 of the blessing 2129 of the x3588 gospel 2098 of Christ. 5547

 15:30 Now 1161 I beseech 3870 z5719 you, 5209 brethren, 80 for y1223 the Lord y2962 Jesus y2424 Christ's y5547 sake, 2257 x1223 x2962 x2424 x5547 and 2532 for 1223 the x3588 love 26 of the x3588 Spirit, 4151 that ye strive together y4865 z5664 with x4865 me 3427 in 1722 [your] prayers 4335 to 4314 God 2316 for 5228 me; 1700

 15:31 That 2443 I may be delivered 4506 z5686 from 575 them that do not believe 544 z5723 in 1722 Judaea; 2449 and 2532 that 2443 my 3450 service 1248 which 3588 [I have] for 1519 Jerusalem 2419 may be 1096 z5638 accepted 2144 of the x3588 saints; 40

 15:32 That 2443 I may come 2064 z5632 unto 4314 you 5209 with 1722 joy 5479 by 1223 the will 2307 of God, 2316 and 2532 may y4875 z0 with you 5213 be refreshed. 4875 z5667

 15:33 Now 1161 the x3588 God 2316 of peace 1515 [be] with 3326 you 5216 all. 3956 Amen. 281
