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,

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 Isaiah 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 may 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.

For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given unto the fathers, and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written,

[a]Therefore will I [b]give praise unto thee among the [c]Gentiles,
And sing unto thy name.

10 And again he saith,

[d]Rejoice, ye [e]Gentiles, with his people.

11 And again,

[f]Praise the Lord, all ye [g]Gentiles;
And let all the peoples praise him.

12 And again, Isaiah saith,

[h]There shall be the root of Jesse,
And he that ariseth to rule over the [i]Gentiles;
On him shall the [j]Gentiles hope.

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