Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
1οφειλομεν δε ημεισ οι δυνατοι τα ασθενηματα των αδυνατων βασταζειν και μη εαυτοισ αρεσκειν
2Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
2εκαστοσ ημων τω πλησιον αρεσκετω εισ το αγαθον προσ οικοδομην
3For even Christ didn’t please himself. But, as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.”
3και γαρ ο χριστοσ ουχ εαυτω ηρεσεν αλλα καθωσ γεγραπται οι ονειδισμοι των ονειδιζοντων σε επεπεσον επ εμε
4For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
4οσα γαρ προεγραφη εισ την ημετεραν διδασκαλιαν προεγραφη ινα δια τησ υπομονησ και δια τησ παρακλησεωσ των γραφων την ελπιδα εχωμεν
5Now the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,
5ο δε θεοσ τησ υπομονησ και τησ παρακλησεωσ δωη υμιν το αυτο φρονειν εν αλληλοισ κατα χριστον ιησουν
6that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
6ινα ομοθυμαδον εν ενι στοματι δοξαζητε τον θεον και πατερα του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
7Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.
7διο προσλαμβανεσθε αλληλουσ καθωσ και ο χριστοσ προσελαβετο υμασ εισ δοξαν θεου
8Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,
8λεγω δε χριστον ιησουν διακονον γεγενησθαι περιτομησ υπερ αληθειασ θεου εισ το βεβαιωσαι τασ επαγγελιασ των πατερων
9and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, “Therefore I will give praise to you among the Gentiles and sing to your name.”
9τα δε εθνη υπερ ελεουσ δοξασαι τον θεον καθωσ γεγραπται δια τουτο εξομολογησομαι σοι εν εθνεσιν και τω ονοματι σου ψαλω
10Again he says, “Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.”
10και παλιν λεγει ευφρανθητε εθνη μετα του λαου αυτου
11Again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles! Let all the peoples praise him.”
11και παλιν αινειτε τον κυριον παντα τα εθνη και επαινεσατε αυτον παντεσ οι λαοι
12Again, Isaiah says, “There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the Gentiles; in him the Gentiles will hope.”
12και παλιν ησαιασ λεγει εσται η ριζα του ιεσσαι και ο ανισταμενοσ αρχειν εθνων επ αυτω εθνη ελπιουσιν
13Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.
13ο δε θεοσ τησ ελπιδοσ πληρωσαι υμασ πασησ χαρασ και ειρηνησ εν τω πιστευειν εισ το περισσευειν υμασ εν τη ελπιδι εν δυναμει πνευματοσ αγιου
14I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
14πεπεισμαι δε αδελφοι μου και αυτοσ εγω περι υμων οτι και αυτοι μεστοι εστε αγαθωσυνησ πεπληρωμενοι πασησ γνωσεωσ δυναμενοι και αλλουσ νουθετειν
15But I write the more boldly to you in part as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
15τολμηροτερον δε εγραψα υμιν αδελφοι απο μερουσ ωσ επαναμιμνησκων υμασ δια την χαριν την δοθεισαν μοι υπο του θεου
16that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving as a priest of the Good News of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
16εισ το ειναι με λειτουργον ιησου χριστου εισ τα εθνη ιερουργουντα το ευαγγελιον του θεου ινα γενηται η προσφορα των εθνων ευπροσδεκτοσ ηγιασμενη εν πνευματι αγιω
17I have therefore my boasting in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.
17εχω ουν καυχησιν εν χριστω ιησου τα προσ τον θεον
18For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,
18ου γαρ τολμησω λαλειν τι ων ου κατειργασατο χριστοσ δι εμου εισ υπακοην εθνων λογω και εργω
19in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God’s Spirit; so that from Jerusalem and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ;
19εν δυναμει σημειων και τερατων εν δυναμει πνευματοσ θεου ωστε με απο ιερουσαλημ και κυκλω μεχρι του ιλλυρικου πεπληρωκεναι το ευαγγελιον του χριστου
20yes, making it my aim to preach the Good News, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build on another’s foundation.
20ουτωσ δε φιλοτιμουμενον ευαγγελιζεσθαι ουχ οπου ωνομασθη χριστοσ ινα μη επ αλλοτριον θεμελιον οικοδομω
21But, as it is written, “They will see, to whom no news of him came. They who haven’t heard will understand.”
21αλλα καθωσ γεγραπται οισ ουκ ανηγγελη περι αυτου οψονται και οι ουκ ακηκοασιν συνησουσιν
22Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
22διο και ενεκοπτομην τα πολλα του ελθειν προσ υμασ
23but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
23νυνι δε μηκετι τοπον εχων εν τοισ κλιμασιν τουτοισ επιποθιαν δε εχων του ελθειν προσ υμασ απο πολλων ετων
24whenever I travel to Spain, I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
24ωσ εαν πορευωμαι εισ την σπανιαν ελευσομαι προσ υμασ ελπιζω γαρ διαπορευομενοσ θεασασθαι υμασ και υφ υμων προπεμφθηναι εκει εαν υμων πρωτον απο μερουσ εμπλησθω
25But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints.
25νυνι δε πορευομαι εισ ιερουσαλημ διακονων τοισ αγιοισ
26For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.
26ευδοκησαν γαρ μακεδονια και αχαια κοινωνιαν τινα ποιησασθαι εισ τουσ πτωχουσ των αγιων των εν ιερουσαλημ
27Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in material things.
27ευδοκησαν γαρ και οφειλεται αυτων εισιν ει γαρ τοισ πνευματικοισ αυτων εκοινωνησαν τα εθνη οφειλουσιν και εν τοισ σαρκικοισ λειτουργησαι αυτοισ
28When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
28τουτο ουν επιτελεσασ και σφραγισαμενοσ αυτοισ τον καρπον τουτον απελευσομαι δι υμων εισ την σπανιαν
29I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the Good News of Christ.
29οιδα δε οτι ερχομενοσ προσ υμασ εν πληρωματι ευλογιασ του ευαγγελιου του χριστου ελευσομαι
30Now I beg you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
30παρακαλω δε υμασ αδελφοι δια του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου και δια τησ αγαπησ του πνευματοσ συναγωνισασθαι μοι εν ταισ προσευχαισ υπερ εμου προσ τον θεον
31that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,
31ινα ρυσθω απο των απειθουντων εν τη ιουδαια και ινα η διακονια μου η εισ ιερουσαλημ ευπροσδεκτοσ γενηται τοισ αγιοισ
32that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
32ινα εν χαρα ελθω προσ υμασ δια θεληματοσ θεου και συναναπαυσωμαι υμιν
33Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
33ο δε θεοσ τησ ειρηνησ μετα παντων υμων αμην
