Romans 15
1
We who are strong have to be a support to the feeble, and not give
pleasure to ourselves.
2
Let every one of us give pleasure to his neighbour for his good, to make
him strong.
3
For Christ did not give pleasure to himself, but, as it is said, The
bitter words of those who were angry with you came on me.
4
Now those things which were put down in writing before our time were for
our learning, so that through quiet waiting and through the comfort of the holy Writings we
might have hope.
5
Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the
same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:
6
So that with one mouth you may give glory to the God and Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
7
So then, take one another to your hearts, as Christ took us, to the glory
of God.
Cristo, a Esperança dos Judeus e Dos que Não são
Judeus
8
Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision to give
effect to the undertakings given by God to the fathers,
9
And so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for his mercy as it is
said, For this reason I will give praise to you among the Gentiles, and I will make a song
to your name.
10
And again he says, Take part, you Gentiles, in the joy of his people.
11
And again, Give praise to the Lord, all you Gentiles and let all the
nations give praise to him.
12
And again Isaiah says, There will be the root of Jesse, and he who comes
to be the ruler over the Gentiles in him will the Gentiles put their hope.
13
Now may the God of hope make you full of joy and peace through faith, so
that all hope may be yours in the power of the Holy Spirit.
O Motivo de Paulo Escrever a Carta
14
And I myself am certain of you, brothers, that you are full of what is
good, complete in all knowledge, able to give direction to one another.
15
But I have, in some measure, less fear in writing to you to put these
things before you again, because of the grace which was given to me by God,
16
To be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, doing the work of a
priest in the good news of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles might be pleasing to
God, being made holy by the Holy Spirit.
17
So I have pride in Christ Jesus in the things which are God's.
18
And I will keep myself from talking of anything but those things which
Christ has done by me to put the Gentiles under his rule in word and in act,
19
By signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit so that from
Jerusalem and round about as far as Illyricum I have given all the good news of Christ
20
Making it my purpose not to take the good news where Christ was named, so
that my work might not be resting on that of others
21
But as it is said in the holy Writings, They will see, to whom the news
of him had not been given, and those to whose ears it had not come will have knowledge.
Os Planos de Viagem de Paulo
22
For which reason I was frequently kept from coming to you:
23
But now, having no longer any place in these parts and having had for a
number of years a great desire to come to you,
24
Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be
sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--
25
But now I go to Jerusalem, taking help for the saints.
26
For it has been the good pleasure of those of Macedonia and Achaia to
send a certain amount of money for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.
27
Yes, it has been their good pleasure and they are in their debt. For if
the Gentiles have had a part in the things of the Spirit which were theirs, it is right for
them, in the same way, to give them help in the things of the flesh.
28
So when I have done this, and have given them this fruit of love, I will
go on by you into Spain.
29
And I am certain that when I come, I will be full of the blessing of
Christ.
30
Now I make request to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the
love of the Spirit, that you will be working together with me in your prayers to God for me
31
So that I may be kept safe from those in Judaea who have not put
themselves under the rule of God, and that the help which I am taking for Jerusalem may be
pleasing to the saints
32
So that I may come to you in joy by the good pleasure of God, and have
rest with you.
33
Now may the God of peace be with you all. So be it.
