Romans 15:1-6 ▼

1 Now we who are strong ought to be patient with the weaknesses of those who are not strong and must stop pleasing ourselves.

2 Each of us must please our neighbor for the good purpose of building him up.

3 For even the Messiah did not please himself. Instead, as it is written, |The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.|

4 For everything that was written long ago was written to instruct us, so that we might have hope through the endurance and encouragement that the Scriptures give us.

5 Now may God, the source of endurance and encouragement, allow you to live in harmony with each other as you follow the Messiah Jesus,

6 so that with one mind and one voice you might glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah.
