Romans 15:2-4
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Be Pleasing Your Neighbor. For Even Christ Didn’t Please Himself, As It Is Written
2 Let each of us be pleasing his neighbor for good, toward [his] edification. 3 For even Christ did not please Himself, but just as it has been written [in Ps 69:9]: “The reproaches of the ones reproaching You fell upon Me”.
For Scripture Was Written To Give Us Hope As We Endure In This
4 For all that was written-before was written for our instruction, in order that we might have hope through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures.
