Bearing the Weaknesses of Others

15 Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of (A)those without strength and not just please ourselves. Each of us is to (B)please his neighbor [a]for his good, to his (C)building up.

Now may the (G)God of perseverance and encouragement grant you (H)to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, so that with one accord you may with one [b]voice glorify (I)the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
