| Romans 15:1 | We who are strong have to be a support to the feeble, and not give pleasure to ourselves. | But *we* ought, we that are strong, to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. | As for us who are strong, our duty is to bear with the weaknesses of those who are not strong, and not seek our own pleasure. |
| Romans 15:2 | Let every one of us give pleasure to his neighbour for his good, to make him strong. | Let each one of us please his neighbour with a view to what is good, to edification. | Let each of us endeavour to please his fellow Christian, aiming at a blessing calculated to build him up. |
| Romans 15:3 | 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. | For the Christ also did not please himself; but according as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproach thee have fallen upon me. | For even the Christ did not seek His own pleasure. His principle was, "The reproaches which they addressed to Thee have fallen on me." |
| Romans 15:4 | 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. | For as many things as have been written before have been written for our instruction, that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope. | For all that was written of old has been written for our instruction, so that we may always have hope through the power of endurance and the encouragement which the Scriptures afford. |
| Romans 15:5 | 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: | Now the God of endurance and of encouragement give to you to be like-minded one toward another, according to Christ Jesus; | And may God, the giver of power of endurance and of that encouragement, grant you to be in full sympathy with one another in accordance with the example of Christ Jesus, |
| Romans 15:6 | So that with one mouth you may give glory to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. | that ye may with one accord, with one mouth, glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. | so that with oneness both of heart and voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| Romans 15:7 | So then, take one another to your hearts, as Christ took us, to the glory of God. | Wherefore receive ye one another, according as the Christ also has received you to [the] glory of God. | Habitually therefore give one another a friendly reception, just as Christ also has received you, and thus promote the glory of God. |
| Romans 15:8 | 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, | For I say that Jesus Christ became a minister of [the] circumcision for [the] truth of God, to confirm the promises of the fathers; | My meaning is that Christ has become a servant to the people of Israel in vindication of God's truthfulness in showing how sure are the promises made to our forefathers |
| Romans 15:9 | 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. | and that the nations should glorify God for mercy; according as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among [the] nations, and will sing to thy name. | and that the Gentiles also have glorified God in acknowledgment of His mercy. So it is written, "For this reason I will praise Thee among the Gentiles, and sing psalms in honour of Thy name." |
| Romans 15:10 | And again he says, Take part, you Gentiles, in the joy of his people. | And again he says, Rejoice, nations, with his people. | And again the Psalmist says, "Be glad, ye Gentiles, in company with His People." |
| Romans 15:11 | And again, Give praise to the Lord, all you Gentiles; and let all the nations give praise to him. | And again, Praise the Lord, all [ye] nations, and let all the peoples laud him. | And again, "Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles, and let all the people extol Him." |
| Romans 15:12 | 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. | And again, Esaias says, There shall be the root of Jesse, and one that arises, to rule over [the] nations: in him shall [the] nations hope. | And again Isaiah says, "There shall be the Root of Jesse and One who rises up to rule the Gentiles. On Him shall the Gentiles build their hopes." |
| Romans 15:13 | 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. | Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that ye should abound in hope by [the] power of [the] Holy Spirit. | May God, the giver of hope, fill you with continual joy and peace because you trust in Him so that you may have abundant hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. |
| Romans 15:14 | 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. | But I am persuaded, my brethren, I myself also, concerning you, that yourselves also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another. | But as to you, brethren, I am convinced yes, I Paul am convinced that, even apart from my teaching, you are already full of goodness of heart, and enriched with complete Christian knowledge, and are also competent to instruct one another. |
| Romans 15:15 | 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, | But I have written to you the more boldly, [brethren,] in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace given to me by God, | But I write to you the more boldly partly as reminding you of what you already know because of the authority graciously entrusted to me by God, |
| Romans 15:16 | 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. | for me to be minister of Christ Jesus to the nations, carrying on as a sacrificial service the [message of] glad tidings of God, in order that the offering up of the nations might be acceptable, sanctified by [the] Holy Spirit. | that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus among the Gentiles, doing priestly duties in connexion with God's Good News so that the sacrifice namely the Gentiles may be acceptable to Him, being (as it is) an offering which the Holy Spirit has made holy. |
| Romans 15:17 | So I have pride in Christ Jesus in the things which are God's. | I have therefore [whereof to] boast in Christ Jesus in the things which pertain to God. | I can therefore glory in Christ Jesus concerning the work for God in which I am engaged. |
| Romans 15:18 | 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, | For I will not dare to speak anything of the things which Christ has not wrought by me, for [the] obedience of [the] nations, by word and deed, | For I will not presume to mention any of the results that Christ has brought about by other agency than mine in securing the obedience of the Gentiles by word or deed, |
| Romans 15:19 | 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; | in [the] power of signs and wonders, in [the] power of [the] Spirit of God; so that I, from Jerusalem, and in a circuit round to Illyricum, have fully preached the glad tidings of the Christ; | with power manifested in signs and marvels, and through the power of the Holy Spirit. But to speak simply of my own labours beginning in Jerusalem and the outlying districts, I have proclaimed without reserve, even as far as Illyricum, the Good News of the Christ; |
| Romans 15:20 | 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; | and so aiming to announce the glad tidings, not where Christ has been named, that I might not build upon another's foundation; | making it my ambition, however, not to tell the Good News where Christ's name was already known, for fear I should be building on another man's foundation. |
| Romans 15:21 | 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. | but according as it is written, To whom there was nothing told concerning him, they shall see; and they that have not heard shall understand. | But, as Scripture says, "Those shall see, to whom no report about Him has hitherto come, and those who until now have not heard shall understand." |
| Romans 15:22 | For which reason I was frequently kept from coming to you: | Wherefore also I have been often hindered from coming to you. | And it is really this which has again and again prevented my coming to you. |
| Romans 15:23 | 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, | But now, having no longer place in these regions, and having great desire to come to you these many years, | But now, as there is no more unoccupied ground in this part of the world, and I have for years past been eager to pay you a visit, |
| Romans 15:24 | 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) | whenever I should go to Spain; (for I hope to see you as I go through, and by you to be set forward thither, if first I shall have been in part filled with your company;) | I hope, as soon as ever I extend my travels into Spain, to see you on my way and be helped forward by you on my journey, when I have first enjoyed being with you for a time. |
| Romans 15:25 | But now I go to Jerusalem, taking help for the saints. | but now I go to Jerusalem, ministering to the saints; | But at present I am going to Jerusalem to serve God's people, |
| Romans 15:26 | 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. | for Macedonia and Achaia have been well pleased to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who [are] in Jerusalem. | for Macedonia and Greece have kindly contributed a certain sum in relief of the poor among God's people, in Jerusalem. |
| Romans 15:27 | 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. | They have been well pleased indeed, and they are their debtors; for if the nations have participated in their spiritual things, they ought also in fleshly to minister to them. | Yes, they have kindly done this, and, in fact, it was a debt they owed them. For seeing that the Gentiles have been admitted in to partnership with the Jews in their spiritual blessings, they in turn are under an obligation to render sacred service to the Jews in temporal things. |
| Romans 15:28 | So when I have done this, and have given them this fruit of love, I will go on by you into Spain. | Having finished this therefore, and having sealed to them this fruit, I will set off by you into Spain. | So after discharging this duty, and making sure that these kind gifts reach those for whom they are intended, I shall start for Spain, passing through Rome on my way there; |
| Romans 15:29 | And I am certain that when I come, I will be full of the blessing of Christ. | But I know that, coming to you, I shall come in [the] fulness of [the] blessing of Christ. | and I know that when I come to you it will be with a vast amount of blessing from Christ. |
| Romans 15:30 | 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; | But I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in prayers for me to God; | But I entreat you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love which His Spirit inspires, to help me by wrestling in prayer to God on my behalf, |
| Romans 15:31 | 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; | that I may be saved from those that do not believe in Judaea; and that my ministry which [I have] for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints; | asking that I may escape unhurt from those in Judaea who are disobedient, and that the service which I am going to Jerusalem to render may be well received by the Church there, |
| Romans 15:32 | So that I may come to you in joy by the good pleasure of God, and have rest with you. | in order that I may come to you in joy by God's will, and that I may be refreshed with you. | in order that if God be willing I may come to you with a glad heart, and may enjoy a time of rest with you. |
| Romans 15:33 | Now may the God of peace be with you all. So be it. | And the God of peace be with you all. Amen. | May God, who gives peace be with you all! Amen. |
