Romans 15

1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
1 Debemus autem nos firmiores imbecillitates infirmorum sustinere, et non nobis placere.
2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good
ℵ omit
 to edification.
2 Unusquisque vestrum proximo suo placeat in bonum, ad ædificationem.
3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
3 Etenim Christus non sibi placuit, sed sicut scriptum est: Improperia improperantium tibi ceciderunt super me.
4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were
B ⟨were all⟩
 written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort
ℵBA ⟨through comfort⟩
 of the scriptures might have hope
B ⟨hope of comfort⟩
.
4 Quæcumque enim scripta sunt, ad nostram doctrinam scripta sunt: ut per patientiam, et consolationem Scripturarum, spem habeamus.
5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus
ℵA ⟨Jesus Christ⟩
:
5 Deus autem patientiæ et solatii det vobis idipsum sapere in alterutrum secundum Jesum Christum:
6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
6 ut unanimes, uno ore honorificetis Deum et patrem Domini nostri Jesu Christi.
7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us
ℵBA ⟨you⟩
 to the glory of God.
7 Propter quod suscipite invicem, sicut et Christus suscepit vos in honorem Dei.
8 Now
ℵBA ⟨For⟩
 I say that Jesus
ℵBA omit
 Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
8 Dico enim Christum Jesum ministrum fuisse circumcisionis propter veritatem Dei, ad confirmandas promissiones patrum:
9 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.
9 gentes autem super misericordia honorare Deum, sicut scriptum est: Propterea confitebor tibi in gentibus, Domine, et nomini tuo cantabo.
10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
10 Et iterum dicit: Lætamini gentes cum plebe ejus.
11 And again
B ⟨again he saith⟩
, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people
A ⟨let all peoples laud him⟩
.
11 Et iterum: Laudate omnes gentes Dominum: et magnificate eum omnes populi.
12 And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.
12 Et rursus Isaias ait: Erit radix Jesse, et qui exsurget regere gentes, in eum gentes sperabunt.
13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound
B omit
 in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
13 Deus autem spei repleat vos omni gaudio, et pace in credendo: ut abundetis in spe, et virtute Spiritus Sancti.
14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
14 Certus sum autem fratres mei et ego ipse de vobis, quoniam et ipsi pleni estis dilectione, repleti omni scientia, ita ut possitis alterutrum monere.
15 Nevertheless, brethren,
ℵBA omit
 I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God,
15 Audacius autem scripsi vobis fratres ex parte, tamquam in memoriam vos reducens: propter gratiam, quæ data est mihi a Deo,
16 That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ
ℵBA ⟨Christ Jesus⟩
 to the Gentiles
B omit
, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.
16 ut sim minister Christi Jesu in gentibus: sanctificans Evangelium Dei, ut fiat oblatio gentium accepta, et sanctificata in Spiritu Sancto.
17 I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.
17 Habeo igitur gloriam in Christo Jesu ad Deum.
18 For I will not dare
B ⟨dare not⟩
 to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,
18 Non enim audeo aliquid loqui eorum, quæ per me non efficit Christus in obedientiam gentium, verbo et factis:
19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God
A ⟨Holy Ghost⟩
; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.
19 in virtute signorum, et prodigiorum, in virtute Spiritus Sancti: ita ut ab Jerusalem per circuitum usque ad Illyricum repleverim Evangelium Christi.
20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:
20 Sic autem prædicavi Evangelium hoc, non ubi nominatus est Christus, ne super alienum fundamentum ædificarem:
21 But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.
21 sed sicut scriptum est: Quibus non est annuntiatum de eo, videbunt: et qui non audierunt, intelligent.
22 For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you.
22 Propter quod et impediebar plurimum venire ad vos, et prohibitus sum usque adhuc.
23 But now having
ℵBA ⟨I have⟩
 no more place in these parts, and having
ℵBA ⟨have⟩
 a great desire these many years to come unto you;
23 Nunc vero ulterius locum non habens in his regionibus, cupiditatem autem habens veniendi ad vos ex multis jam præcedentibus annis:
24 Whensoever I take my
ℵBA ⟨Whenever I⟩
 journey into Spain, I will come to you
ℵBA omit
: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company.
24 cum in Hispaniam proficisci cœpero, spero quod præteriens videam vos, et a vobis deducar illuc, si vobis primum ex parte fruitus fuero.
25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.
25 Nunc igitur proficiscar in Jerusalem ministrare sanctis.
26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
26 Probaverunt enim Macedonia et Achaia collationem aliquam facere in pauperes sanctorum, qui sunt in Jerusalem.
27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.
27 Placuit enim eis: et debitores sunt eorum. Nam si spiritualium eorum participes facti sunt gentiles, debent et in carnalibus ministrare illis.
28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them
B omit
 this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.
28 Hoc igitur cum consummavero, et assignavero eis fructum hunc, per vos proficiscar in Hispaniam.
29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of
ℵBA omit
 Christ.
29 Scio autem quoniam veniens ad vos, in abundantia benedictionis Evangelii Christi veniam.
30 Now I beseech you, brethren,
B omit
 for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;
30 Obsecro ergo vos fratres per Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum, et per caritatem Sancti Spiritus, ut adjuvetis me in orationibus vestris pro me ad Deum,
31 That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judæa; and that
ℵBA ⟨that⟩
 my service
B ⟨ministration of alms⟩
 which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints;
31 ut liberer ab infidelibus, qui sunt in Judæa, et obsequii mei oblatio accepta fiat in Jerusalem sanctis,
32 That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.
ℵ ⟨That, when I come unto you with joy by the will of Jesus Christ, I may with you be refreshed.⟩; A ⟨That, when I come unto you with joy by the will of God, I may with you be refreshed.⟩; B ⟨That I may come unto you with joy by the will of the Lord Jesus.⟩
32 ut veniam ad vos in gaudio per voluntatem Dei, et refrigerer vobiscum.
33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
A omit
33 Deus autem pacis sit cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
