Romans 15:8-13
New King James Version
8 Now I say that (A)Jesus Christ has become a [a]servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, (B)to confirm the promises made to the fathers, 9 and (C)that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written:
(D)“For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles,
And sing to Your name.”
10 And again he says:
(E)“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!”
11 And again:
(F)“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles!
Laud Him, all you peoples!”
12 And again, Isaiah says:
(G)“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 (H)joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Lexham English Bible
8 For I say, Christ has become a servant of the circumcision on behalf of the truth of God, in order to confirm the promises to the fathers, 9 and that the Gentiles may glorify God for his mercy, just as it is written,
“Because of this, I will praise you among the Gentiles,
and I will sing praise to your name.”[a]
10 And again it says,
“Rejoice, Gentiles, with his people.”[b]
11 And again,
“Praise the Lord, all the Gentiles,
and let all the peoples praise him.”[c]
12 And again Isaiah says,
“The root of Jesse will come,
even the one who rises to rule over the Gentiles;
in him the Gentiles will put their hope.”[d]
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
