Romans 15:8-13
English Standard Version
Christ the Hope of Jews and Gentiles
8 For I tell you that Christ (A)became a servant to the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, in order (B)to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs, 9 and in order (C)that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,
(D)“Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles,
and sing to your name.”
10 And again it is said,
(E)“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people.”
11 And again,
(F)“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles,
and let all the peoples extol him.”
12 And again Isaiah says,
(G)(H)“The root of Jesse will come,
even he who arises to rule the Gentiles;
(I)in him will the Gentiles hope.”
13 May the God of hope fill you with all (J)joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

New American Standard Bible
8 For I say that Christ has become a servant to (A)the circumcision in behalf of the truth of God, to confirm (B)the promises given to the fathers, 9 and for (C)the Gentiles to (D)glorify God for His mercy; as it is written:
“(E)Therefore I will [a]give praise to You among the Gentiles,
And I will sing praises to Your name.”
10 Again he says,
“(F)Rejoice, you Gentiles, with His people.”
11 And again,
“(G)Praise the Lord all you Gentiles,
And let all the peoples praise Him.”
12 Again Isaiah says,
“(H)There shall come (I)the root of Jesse,
And He who arises to rule over the Gentiles,
(J)In Him will the Gentiles hope.”
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all (K)joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope (L)by the power of the Holy Spirit.
