Romans 15:1-7

Wycliffe Bible

15 But we firmer men owe to sustain the feeblenesses of frail men, and not please to ourselves.^[a]

²Each of us please to his neighbour in good [into good], to edification.

³For Christ pleased not to himself, as it is written, The reproves of men despising thee, felled on me.^[b]

⁴For whatever things be written, those be written to our teaching [they be written to our teaching], that by patience and comfort of scriptures we have hope.

⁵But God of patience and of solace give to you to understand the same thing, each into (the) other after Jesus Christ,

⁶that ye of one will with one mouth worship God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁷For which thing take ye together, as also Christ took you into the honour of God.

Romans 15:1-7

New International Version

15 We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak^(A) and not to please ourselves. ²Each of us should please our neighbors for their good,^(B) to build them up.^(C) ³For even Christ did not please himself^(D) but, as it is written: “The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.”^[a]^(E) ⁴For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us,^(F) so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.

⁵May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind^(G) toward each other that Christ Jesus had, ⁶so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify^(H) the God and Father^(I) of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁷Accept one another,^(J) then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.
