Roma 15
Magandang Balita Biblia
Bigyang-kasiyahan ang Kapwa, Huwag ang Sarili
15 Tayong malalakas sa paniniwala ay dapat tumulong sa mahihina at huwag ang pansariling kasiyahan lamang ang ating isipin. 2 Sikapin nating lahat na itaguyod ang kapakanan ng ating kapwa para sa kanyang ikalalakas. 3 Sapagkat(A) maging si Cristo man ay hindi naghangad ng sariling kasiyahan subalit nagpaubaya; tulad ng nasusulat, “Ako ang binagsakan ng mga pag-alipusta na sa iyo ipinapatama.” 4 Anumang(B) nasa Kasulatan noon pang una ay nasulat sa ikatututo natin, upang sa pamamagitan ng pagtitiis at sa pagpapalakas ng loob mula sa kasulatan ay magkaroon tayo ng pag-asa. 5 Ipagkaloob nawa ng Diyos, na siyang nagbibigay sa atin ng katatagan at lakas ng loob, na kayo'y mamuhay nang may pagkakaisa ayon kay Cristo Jesus, 6 upang sa gayon, nagkakaisa kayong magpupuri sa Diyos at Ama ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo.
Ang Magandang Balita ay para rin sa mga Hentil
7 Kung paanong kayo'y malugod na tinanggap ni Cristo, tanggapin ninyo ang isa't isa upang mapapurihan ang Diyos. 8 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, si Cristo'y naglingkod sa mga Judio upang patunayang ang Diyos ay tapat, at tumutupad sa mga pangako niya sa kanilang mga ninuno, 9 at(C) upang ang mga Hentil naman ay magpuri sa Diyos dahil sa kanyang habag. Tulad ng nasusulat,
“Kaya't sa gitna ng mga Hentil, ika'y aking pupurihin,
At aawitan ko ang iyong pangalan.”
10 Sinabi(D) rin,
“Magalak kayo mga Hentil, kasama ng kanyang bayan!”
11 At(E) muling sinabi,
“Magpuri kayo sa Panginoon, kayong mga Hentil,
lahat ng bansa ay magpuri sa kanya!”
12 Sinabi pa ni Isaias,
“May isisilang sa angkan ni Jesse,
upang maghari sa mga Hentil;
siya ang kanilang magiging pag-asa.”
13 Puspusin nawa kayo ng Diyos na siyang bukal ng pag-asa, at nawa ay pagkalooban niya kayo ng kagalakan at kapayapaan sa pamamagitan ng inyong pananampalataya, upang mag-umapaw ang inyong pag-asa sa pamamagitan ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu Santo.
Ang Dahilan ng Pagsulat ni Pablo
14 Mga kapatid, lubos akong naniniwalang kayo mismo ay puspos ng kabutihan at punô ng kaalaman, kaya't matuturuan na ninyo ang isa't isa. 15 Gayunman, sa sulat na ito'y naglakas-loob akong paalalahanan kayo tungkol sa ilang bagay. Ginawa ko ito dahil sa kagandahang-loob ng Diyos sa akin 16 upang maging lingkod ni Cristo Jesus at gumanap ng tungkulin gaya ng isang pari sa mga Hentil. Ipinapangaral ko sa kanila ang Magandang Balita ng Diyos upang sila'y maging handog na kalugud-lugod sa kanya, dahil sila ay ginawang banal ng Espiritu Santo. 17 Kaya't sa pakikiisa ko kay Cristo Jesus, maipagmamalaki ko ang aking paglilingkod sa Diyos. 18 Wala akong pinapangahasang ipagmalaki kundi ang ginawa ni Cristo upang maakit ang mga Hentil na sumunod sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ng aking mga salita at gawa, 19 sa tulong ng mga himala at mga kababalaghan, at sa pamamagitan ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu ng Diyos.[a] Kaya't mula sa Jerusalem hanggang sa Ilirico, ipinangaral ko ang Magandang Balita tungkol kay Cristo. 20 Ang hangad ko'y ipangaral ito sa mga lugar na hindi pa nakikilala si Cristo, upang hindi ako magtayo sa pundasyon ng iba. 21 Subalit(F) tulad ng nasusulat,
“Makakakilala ang hindi pa nakakabalita tungkol sa kanya.
Makakaunawa ang hindi pa nakakarinig tungkol sa kanya.”
Ang Balak ni Pablong Dumalaw sa Roma
22 Iyan(G) ang dahilan kung bakit hindi ako matuluy-tuloy sa pagpunta sa inyo. 23 Ngunit ngayong tapos na ang gawain ko sa lupaing ito, at dahil matagal ko na ring gustong pumunta riyan, 24 inaasahan kong magkikita-kita tayo pagdaan ko riyan papuntang Espanya. Inaasahan ko ring ako'y tutulungan ninyong makarating doon matapos nating magkasama-sama nang sandaling panahon. 25 Ngunit(H) sa ngayon ay pupunta muna ako sa Jerusalem upang dalhin ang tulong sa mga kapatid roon. 26 Sapagkat minabuti ng mga taga-Macedonia at taga-Acaya na magpadala ng tulong para sa mga mahihirap na kapatid sa Jerusalem. 27 Malugod(I) nilang ginawa iyon, at talaga namang dapat nilang gawin. Dahil ang mga Hentil ay nakabahagi sa mga pagpapalang espirituwal ng mga Judio, marapat lamang na bahaginan nila ang mga Judio sa pamamagitan ng mga pagpapalang materyal. 28 Kaya't pagkabigay ko ng nasabing tulong sa mga kapatid sa Jerusalem, daraan ako riyan pagpunta ko sa Espanya. 29 Naniniwala akong pagpunta ko riyan ay taglay ko ang masaganang pagpapala ni Cristo.
30 Mga kapatid, nakikiusap ako sa inyo, alang-alang sa ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo at sa pag-ibig ng Espiritu, tulungan ninyo ako sa pamamagitan ng inyong taimtim na pananalangin para sa akin. 31 Idalangin ninyong maligtas ako mula sa mga taga-Judea na ayaw sumampalataya, at nawa'y tanggapin ng mga kapatid sa Jerusalem ang paglilingkod ko para sa kanila. 32 Sa gayon, kung loloobin ng Diyos,[b] masaya akong makakarating diyan at muling pasiglahin sa inyong piling. 33 Sumainyo nawa ang Diyos na pinagmumulan ng kapayapaan. Amen.

New King James Version
Bearing Others’ Burdens
15 We (A)then who are strong ought to bear with the [a]scruples of the weak, and not to please ourselves. 2 (B)Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to [b]edification. 3 (C)For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, (D)“The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me.” 4 For (E)whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the [c]patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. 5 (F)Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, 6 that you may (G)with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Glorify God Together
7 Therefore (H)receive one another, just (I)as Christ also received [d]us, to the glory of God. 8 Now I say that (J)Jesus Christ has become a [e]servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, (K)to confirm the promises made to the fathers, 9 and (L)that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written:
(M)“For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles,
And sing to Your name.”
10 And again he says:
(N)“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!”
11 And again:
(O)“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles!
Laud Him, all you peoples!”
12 And again, Isaiah says:
(P)“There shall be a root of Jesse;
And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles,
In Him the Gentiles shall hope.”
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all (Q)joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
From Jerusalem to Illyricum
14 Now (R)I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, (S)filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish [f]one another. 15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as reminding you, (T)because of the grace given to me by God, 16 that (U)I might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the (V)offering [g]of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. 17 Therefore I have reason to glory in Christ Jesus (W)in the things which pertain to God. 18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things (X)which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, (Y)to make the Gentiles obedient— 19 (Z)in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. 20 And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, (AA)lest I should build on another man’s foundation, 21 but as it is written:
(AB)“To whom He was not announced, they shall see;
And those who have not heard shall understand.”
Plan to Visit Rome
22 For this reason (AC)I also have been much hindered from coming to you. 23 But now no longer having a place in these parts, and (AD)having a great desire these many years to come to you, 24 whenever I journey to Spain, [h]I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, (AE)and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may (AF)enjoy your company for a while. 25 But now (AG)I am going to Jerusalem to [i]minister to the saints. 26 For (AH)it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem. 27 It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For (AI)if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, (AJ)their duty is also to minister to them in material things. 28 Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them (AK)this fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain. 29 (AL)But I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing [j]of the gospel of Christ.
30 Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and (AM)through the love of the Spirit, (AN)that you strive together with me in prayers to God for me, 31 (AO)that I may be delivered from those in Judea who [k]do not believe, and that (AP)my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints, 32 (AQ)that I may come to you with joy (AR)by the will of God, and may (AS)be refreshed together with you. 33 Now (AT)the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

King James Version
15 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:
6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.
8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
9 And 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.
10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.
12 And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.
13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God,
16 That 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.
17 I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.
18 For 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,
19 Through 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.
20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:
21 But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.
22 For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you.
23 But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you;
24 Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company.
25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.
26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.
28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.
29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.
30 Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;
31 That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judaea; and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints;
32 That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.
33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
羅 馬 書 15
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
15 我们信仰坚定的人对软弱的人的不足之处应该多多包涵,而不求取悦自己。 2 我们每个人应该为他人的利益着想,尽量取悦他们,意图加强他们。 3 甚至是基督也没有企图取悦自己,相反,正如《经》上说的那样∶“那些人对你的侮辱,现在落到了我身上。” [a] 4 《经》上过去所记载的一切都是为了教导我们而写的,为的是通过从《经》里产生的忍耐和勉励,使我们获得希望。 5 愿给人忍耐和勉励的上帝,帮助你们彼此和睦相处,并以基督耶稣为榜样, 6 好让你们大家一起齐声赞美我们的主耶稣基督之父上帝。 7 所以,为了荣耀上帝,你们要彼此接纳,就像基督接纳你们一样。 8 我告诉你们,为了表明上帝的许诺是真实的,基督成了犹太人的仆人,实现了上帝对我们祖先的诺言, 9 以便使外族人赞美上帝对他们的仁慈。正如《经》上所说的那样:
“因此,我在外族人中赞扬你,
歌颂你的名字。” (A)
10 《经》上还说:
“外族人啊,
与上帝的选民同乐吧。” (B)
11 《经》上又说:
“愿所有的外族人赞美主!
愿所有的人都赞美他。” (C)
12 以赛亚也说:
13 愿上帝,希望之源,因为你们信任他而使你们充满欢乐与和平,也使你们的希望借着圣灵的力量不断增长。
保罗谈他的工作
14 我的兄弟们,我本人深信你们善良,知识丰富,并能彼此劝勉。 15 我冒昧地给你们写信,再次提醒你们那几件事,是因为上帝把这馈赠赐给了我, 16 让我在外族人中做基督耶稣的仆人,为外族人服务。我像祭司一样宣讲上帝的福音,为的是让外族人通过圣灵所做的祭献为上帝所接纳。
17 所以,我为在基督耶稣里为上帝所做的工作而感到自豪。
“那些没听说过他的人,
将要看到,
没有听说过他的人,
将要明白。” (E)
保罗访问罗马的计划
22 由于我在这些地区的义务,多次使我前去拜访你们未能成行。
23 但是,我现在已完成了在这一带的工作。多年来,我一直希望拜访你们。 24 我计划在去西班牙的途中去拜访你们,并与你们团聚一些时候,之后,让你们送我成行。 25 现在我要去耶路撒冷,帮助那里的上帝子民。 26 马其顿和亚该亚的教会决定捐款援助耶路撒冷上帝的圣徒中的贫穷兄弟。 27 他们很乐意这样做,的确,这也是他们应尽的义务。既然外族人分享了犹太人属灵的祝福,那么,他们也应该让犹太人得到物质上的帮助。 28 所以,当我完成这项工作后,即把收集到的捐款安全地交给他们之后,我就路经你们所在的城市前往西班牙。 29 我知道,我来看你们时,会把基督丰盛的祝福带给你们。
30 我请求你们,兄弟们,凭着我们的主耶稣基督和圣灵给我们的爱,请和我一起为我向上帝祈祷, 31 让我能免遭在犹太的非教徒的危害,并使我在耶路撒冷的工作能让那里的上帝的子民满意。 32 如果这是上帝的意愿,我就可以高高兴兴的来看望你们,并和你们一同歇息。 33 愿赐平安的上帝与你们同在,阿们。
