9and for 1the GentilesG1484 to 2glorifyG1392 GodG2316 for His mercyG1656; as it is writtenG1125, “3ThereforeG1223G3778 I will 4giveG1843 praiseG1843 to You amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, And I will singG5567 to Your nameG3686.” 10AgainG3825 he saysG3004, “5RejoiceG2165, O GentilesG1484, with His peopleG2992.” 11And againG3825, “6PraiseG134 the LordG2962 allG3956 you GentilesG1484, And let allG3956 the peoplesG2992 praiseG1867 Him.” 12AgainG3825 IsaiahG2268 saysG3004, “7There shall comeG1510 8the rootG4491 of JesseG2421, And He who arisesG450 to ruleG757 over the GentilesG1484, 9In Him shall the GentilesG1484 hopeG1679.” 13NowG1161 may the GodG2316 of hopeG1680 fillG4137 you with allG3956 10joyG5479 and peaceG1515 in believingG4100, soG1519 that you will aboundG4052 in hopeG1680 11by the powerG1411 of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.

14And concerningG4012 you, my brethrenG80, I myselfG846 alsoG2532 am convincedG3982 that you yourselvesG846 are fullG3324 of 12goodnessG19, filledG4137 with 13allG3956 knowledgeG1108 and ableG1410 alsoG2532 to admonishG3560 oneG240 anotherG240. 15But I have writtenG1125 veryG5112 boldlyG5112 to you on someG3313 pointsG3313 soG5613 as to remindG1878 you againG1878, becauseG1223 of 14the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 me 15from GodG2316, 16to be 16a ministerG3011 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 to the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 as a priestG2418 the 17gospelG2098 of GodG2316, soG2443 that my 18offeringG4376 of the GentilesG1484 may becomeG1096 acceptableG2144, sanctifiedG37 by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 17ThereforeG3767 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 I haveG2192 found 19reasonG2746 for boastingG2746 in 20things pertainingG4314 to GodG2316. 18For I will not presumeG5111 to speakG2980 of anythingG5100 21exceptG3756 whatG3739 22ChristG5547 has accomplishedG2716 throughG1223 me, 23resultingG1519 in the obedienceG5218 of the GentilesG1484 by wordG3056 and deedG2041, 19in the powerG1411 of 2425signsG4592 and wondersG5059, 26in the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151; soG5620 that 27from JerusalemG2419 and roundG2945 aboutG2945 as 28farG3360 as IllyricumG2437 I have 29fullyG4137 preachedG4137 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547. 20And thusG3779 I aspiredG5389 to 30preachG2097 the gospelG2097, not whereG3699 ChristG5547 was already namedG3687, 31soG2443 that I would not buildG3618 on anotherG245 man’sG245 foundationG2310; 21but as it is writtenG1125, “32They whoG3739 hadG312 noG3756 newsG312 of Him shall seeG3708, And they who have not heardG191 shall understandG4920.”
