Romans 15:1-13

But we who are stronger must bear with the feebleness of the weak, and not so as to please ourselves. Each one of you should please his neighbor unto good, for edification. For even Christ did not please himself, but as it was written: "The reproaches of those who reproached you fell upon me." For whatever was written, was written to teach us, so that, through patience and the consolation of the Scriptures, we might have hope. So may the God of patience and solace grant you to be of one mind toward one another, in accord with Jesus Christ, so that, together with one mouth, you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. For this reason, accept one another, just as Christ also has accepted you, in the honor of God. For I declare that Christ Jesus was the minister of circumcision because of the truth of God, so as to confirm the promises to the fathers, and that the Gentiles are to honor God because of his mercy, just as it was written: "Because of this, I will confess you among the Gentiles, O Lord, and I will sing to your name." And again, he says: "Rejoice, O Gentiles, along with his people." And again: "All Gentiles, praise the Lord; and all peoples, magnify him." And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be a root of Jesse, and he shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, and in him the Gentiles shall hope." So may the God of hope fill you with every joy and with peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope and in the virtue of the Holy Spirit.
