Romans 15

1 Now we that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

We ought now we ourselves who [are] strong the weaknesses of the weak to bear and not ourselves to please;

2 Let each one of us please his neighbour for that which is good, unto edifying.

Each (for *k*) of us the neighbour should please unto the good for edification.

3 For Christ also pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell upon me.

Even for Christ not Himself pleased but even as it has been written: The reproaches of those reproaching You (fell *N(k)O*) on Me myself.

4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope.

As much as for was written in the past (all things *O*) for our own instruction (was written, *N(k)O*) so that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures hope we may have.

5 Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus:

The now God of endurance and encouragement would He give you the same to be of mind with one another according to Christ Jesus

6 that with one accord ye may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

so that with one accord with one mouth you may glorify the God and Father of the Lord of us Jesus Christ.

7 Wherefore receive ye one another, even as Christ also received you, to the glory of God.

Therefore do receive one another even as also Christ received (you *N(K)O*) to [the] glory (*no*) of God.

8 For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises [given] unto the fathers,

I say (for *N(k)O*) Christ (Jesus *K*) a servant (to have become *NK(o)*) of [the] circumcision for [the] truth of God in order to confirm the promises given to the fathers,

9 and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles, And sing unto thy name.

and [for] the Gentiles for mercy to glorify God even as it has been written: Because of this I will praise You among [the] Gentiles and to the name of You will I sing.

10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

And again it says: do rejoice you Gentiles with the people of Him.

11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; And let all the peoples praise him.

And again: do praise all you who [are] Gentiles the Lord, and (they should praise *N(K)O*) Him all the peoples.

12 And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be the root of Jesse, And he that ariseth to rule over the Gentiles; On him shall the Gentiles hope.

And again Isaiah says: There will be the root of Jesse, and the [One] arising to rule over Gentiles, in Him [the] Gentiles will hope.

13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Ghost.

And the God of hope would fill you with all joy and peace in believing for to abound you in hope in [the] power [of the] Spirit Holy.

14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

I have been persuaded now, brothers of mine, also myself I myself concerning you that also you yourselves full are of goodness filled with all (*no*) knowledge, being able also (one another *NK(O)*) to admonish.

15 But I write the more boldly unto you in some measure, as putting you again in remembrance, because of the grace that was given me of God,

More boldly however I have written to you (brothers *k*) in part as reminding you because of the grace which having been given to me (by *NK(o)*) God

16 that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus unto the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.

for to be me a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles administering the sacred service of the gospel of God, so that may become the offering of the Gentiles acceptable sanctified in [the] Spirit Holy.

17 I have therefore my glorying in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.

I have therefore (the *no*) boasting in Christ Jesus the [things] pertaining to God;

18 For I will not dare to speak of any things save those which Christ wrought through me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,

Not for will I dare anything to speak of what except has accomplished Christ through me unto [the] obedience of [the] Gentiles by word and by deed,

19 in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Ghost; so that from Jerusalem, and round about even unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ;

in [the] power of signs and wonders, in [the] power of [the] Spirit (of God, *NK(O)*) so as for me from Jerusalem and around unto Illyricum to have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.

20 yea, making it my aim so to preach the gospel, not where Christ was [already] named, that I might not build upon another man’s foundation;

thus now (being ambitious *NK(o)*) to evangelise not where was named Christ, so that not upon another’s foundation I may build

21 but, as it is written, They shall see, to whom no tidings of him came, And they who have not heard shall understand.

Rather even as it has been written: To whom not it was proclaimed concerning Him they will behold and those that not have heard will understand.

22 Wherefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you:

Therefore also I was being hindered many [times] to come to you,

23 but now, having no more any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come unto you,

Now however no longer a place having in regions these a great desire now having had to come to you for (many *NK(O)*) years,

24 whensoever I go unto Spain (for I hope to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first in some measure I shall have been satisfied with your company)—

whenever (maybe *N(k)O*) I shall go to Spain (I will come to you *K*) I hope for going through to see you and by you to be equipped there, if of you first in part I shall be filled.

25 but now, [I say], I go unto Jerusalem, ministering unto the saints.

Now however I am going to Jerusalem ministering to the saints.

26 For it hath been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints that are at Jerusalem.

Were pleased for Macedonia and Achaia a contribution certain to make for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem;

27 Yea, it hath been their good pleasure; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it [to them] also to minister unto them in carnal things.

They were pleased for, and debtors they are of them; If for in the [things] spiritual of them shared the Gentiles, they ought also in the material things to minister to them.

28 When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by you unto Spain.

This therefore having finished and having sealed to them fruit this I will set off through you into (*k*) Spain.

29 And I know that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.

I know now that coming to you in [the] fullness of the blessing (of the gospel *K*) (*k*) of Christ I will come.

30 Now I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;

I exhort now you, brothers, through the Lord of us Jesus Christ and through the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in the prayers for me to God,

31 that I may be delivered from them that are disobedient in Judaea, and [that] my ministration which [I have] for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;

so that I may be delivered from those refusing to be persuaded in Judea and (so that *K*) the service of mine which [is] in Jerusalem acceptable to the saints may become

32 that I may come unto you in joy through the will of God, and together with you find rest.

so that in joy (having come *N(k)O*) to you through [the] will of God (and *ko*) I may be refreshed with you.

33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

And the God of peace [be] with all of you, Amen.
