But we who are strong must bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not please ourselves.
Therefore each of us pleases his neighbor in what is good for edification.
For even Christ did not please himself, but, as it is written: The reproaches of those who reproached you fell upon me.
For whatever was written before was written for our learning, so that through patience and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like-minded one toward another, according to Christ Jesus,
That you may with one accord glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Therefore receive one another, as Christ also received us, for the glory of God.
I say, then, that Jesus Christ was a minister of circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises made to the fathers;
And that the Gentiles may glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles,And I will sing to your name.
And again he says, Rejoice, Gentiles, with his people.
And again: Praise the Lord, all ye nations, And give thanks to him, all peoples.
Romans 15:1-11
