Romans 15:7-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ Wherefore receive one another, as Christ also hath received you unto the honour of God.

⁸ For I say that Christ Jesus was minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers.

⁹ But that the Gentiles are to glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: Therefore will I confess to thee, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and will sing to thy name.

¹⁰ And again he saith: Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

¹¹ And again: Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and magnify him, all ye people.

¹² And again Isaias saith: There shall be a root of Jesse; and he that shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, in him the Gentiles shall hope.

¹³ Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing; that you may abound in hope, and in the power of the Holy Ghost.

¹⁴ And I myself also, my brethren, am assured of you, that you also are full of love, replenished with all knowledge, so that you are able to admonish one another.

¹⁵ But I have written to you, brethren, more boldly in some sort, as it were putting you in mind: because of the grace which is given me from God.

¹⁶ That I should be the minister of Christ Jesus among the Gentiles; sanctifying the gospel of God, that the oblation of the Gentiles may be made acceptable and sanctified in the Holy Ghost.
