1We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2Let each one of us please his neighbour with a view to what is good, to edification.
2Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
3For the Christ also did not please himself; but according as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproach thee have fallen upon me.

5Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:
6that ye may with one accord, with one mouth, glorify theGod and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
6That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9and that the nations should glorifyGod for mercy; according as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among [the] nations, and will sing to thy name.
9And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.

12And 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.

13Now theGod 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.

14But 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.

15But I have written to you the more boldly, [brethren,] in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace given to me byGod,

16for me to be minister of Christ Jesus to the nations, carrying on as a sacrificial service the [message of] glad tidings ofGod, in order that the offering up of the nations might be acceptable, sanctified by [the] Holy Spirit.
16That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.
17I have therefore [whereof to] boast in Christ Jesus in the things which pertain toGod.
17I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.
18For 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,
18For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,
19in [the] power of signs and wonders, in [the] power of [the] Spirit ofGod; so that I, from Jerusalem, and in a circuit round to Illyricum, have fully preached the glad tidings of the Christ;
19Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.
20and so aiming to announce the glad tidings, not where Christ has been named, that I might not build upon another's foundation;
20Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation:
21but according as it is written, To whom there was nothing told concerning him, they shall see; and they that have not heard shall understand.

26for Macedonia and Achaia have been well pleased to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who [are] in Jerusalem.
26For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
27They 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.
