Romans 15
1 We which are strong, ought to beare the infirmities of the weake, and not to please our selues.
ⲁ̅ϣϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛϥⲓ ϩⲁⲙⲙⲛⲧϭⲱⲃ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉ ⲙⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲛⲧⲙⲁⲣⲉⲥⲕⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲁⲛ
2 Therefore let euery man please his neighbour in that that is good to edification.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲁⲣⲉⲥⲕⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲑⲓⲧⲟⲩⲱϥ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲁⲅⲁⲑⲟⲛ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ ⲡⲕⲱⲧ
3 For Christ also would not please himselfe, but as it is written, The rebukes of them which rebuke thee, fell on me.
ⲅ̅ⲕⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲧⲁⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲣⲁⲛⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲙⲓⲛ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲥⲏϩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲛⲟϭⲛⲉϭ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲟϭⲛⲉϭ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ϩⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϫⲱⲓ
4 For whatsoeuer things are written aforetime, are writte for our learning, that we through patience, and comfort of the Scriptures might haue hope.

5 Now the God of patience and consolation giue you that ye be like minded one towards another, according to Christ Iesus,

7 Wherefore receiue ye one another, as Christ also receiued vs to the glory of God.

8 Nowe I say, that Iesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision, for the trueth of God, to confirme the promises made vnto the fathers.

9 And let the Gentiles prayse God, for his mercie, as it is written, For this cause I wil confesse thee among the Gentiles, and sing vnto thy Name.

10 And againe he saith, Reioyce, ye Gentiles with his people.

12 And againe Esaias sayth, There shall be a roote of Iesse, and hee that shall rise to reigne ouer the Gentiles, in him shall the Gentiles trust.

13 Nowe the God of hope fill you with all ioye, and peace in beleeuing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the holy Ghost.

14 And I my selfe also am perswaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodnes, and filled with all knowledge, and are able to admonish one another.

15 Neuerthelesse, brethren, I haue somewhat boldly after a sort written vnto you, as one that putteth you in remembrance, through the grace that is giuen me of God,

16 That I should be the minister of Iesus Christ toward the Gentiles, ministring the Gospel of God, that the offering vp of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the holy Ghost.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲣⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲗⲓⲧⲟⲩⲣⲅⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲉⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲓϣⲙϣⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲫⲟⲣⲁ ⲛⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲥϣⲏⲡ ⲉⲁⲩⲧⲃⲃⲟⲥ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲛⲁ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ
17 I haue therefore whereof I may reioyce in Christ Iesus in those things which pertaine to God.

18 For I dare not speake of any thing, which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient in worde and deede,
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲉⲉⲓⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲉϫⲉ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲙⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ ⲉⲡⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ϩⲙ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲡϩⲱⲃ
19 With the power of signes and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God: so that from Hierusalem, and round about vnto Illyricum, I haue caused to abound the Gospel of Christ.

20 Yea, so I enforced my selfe to preach the Gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should haue built on another mans foundation.

21 But as it is written, To whome hee was not spoken of, they shall see him, and they that heard not, shall vnderstand him.

24 When I shall take my iourney into Spaine, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my iourney, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, after that I haue bene somewhat filled with your company.

25 But now go I to Hierusalem, to minister vnto the Saints.

27 For it hath pleased them, and their detters are they: for if the Gentiles be made partakers of their spirituall things, their duetie is also to minister vnto them in carnall things.
