Chapter
15 Do imitate Christ
15:1 We who are strong
ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves.
15:2 Each of us should
please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.
15:3 For even Christ
did not please himself but, as it is written: "The insults of those who
insult you have fallen on me."
15:4 For everything
that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance
and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
15:6 so that with one
heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15:7 Accept one another,
then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.
15:8 For I tell you that
Christ has become a servant of the Jews on behalf of God's truth, to confirm
the promises made to the patriarchs
15:9 so that the Gentiles
may glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: "Therefore I will praise
you among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to your name."
15:10 Again, it says,
"Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people."
15:11 And again,
"Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and sing praises to him, all you
peoples."
15:13 May the God of
hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may
overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Paul the Minister to
the Gentiles
15:14 I myself am
convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, complete in
knowledge and competent to instruct one another.
15:15 I have written
you quite boldly on some points, as if to remind you of them again, because of
the grace God gave me
15:16 to be a minister
of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles with the priestly duty of proclaiming the
gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God,
sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
15:17 Therefore I
glory in Christ Jesus in my service to God.
15:18 I will not
venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in
leading the Gentiles to obey God by what I have said and done--
15:19 by the power of
signs and miracles, through the power of the Spirit. So from Jerusalem all the
way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.
15:20 It has always
been my ambition to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I
would not be building on someone else's foundation.
15:21 Rather, as it is
written: "Those who were not told about him will see, and those who have
not heard will understand."
15:22 This is why I
have often been hindered from coming to you.
Paul’s Plan to Visit
Rome
15:23 But now that
there is no more place for me to work in these regions, and since I have been
longing for many years to see you,
15:24 I plan to do so
when I go to Spain. I hope to visit you while passing through and to have you
assist me on my journey there, after I have enjoyed your company for a while.
15:25 Now, however, I
am on my way to Jerusalem in the service of the saints there.
15:26 For Macedonia
and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in
Jerusalem.
15:27 They were
pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have
shared in the Jews' spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with
them their material blessings.
15:28 So after I have
completed this task and have made sure that they have received this fruit, I
will go to Spain and visit you on the way.
15:29 I know that when
I come to you, I will come in the full measure of the blessing of Christ.
15:30 I urge you,
brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in
my struggle by praying to God for me.
15:31 Pray that I may
be rescued from the unbelievers in Judea and that my service in Jerusalem may
be acceptable to the saints there,
15:32 so that by God's
will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed.
15:33 The God of peace
be with you all. Amen.
我們剛強的人，應該擔代不剛強之人的軟弱，不求自己的喜悅。』羅十五1
『我們各人要叫鄰舍喜悅，使他得益處，被建造。』羅十五2
『因為基督也不求自己的喜悅，反而如經上所記：“辱罵你之人的辱罵，都落在我身上。”』羅十五3
『從前所寫的，都是為教訓我們寫的，使我們藉著忍耐，並藉著經書的鼓勵，可以得著盼望。』羅十五4
『但願那賜忍耐與鼓勵的神，叫你們照著基督耶穌，彼此思念相同的事，』羅十五5
『使你們同心合意，用同一的口，榮耀我們主耶穌基督的神與父。』羅十五6
『所以你們要彼此接納，如同基督接納你們一樣，使榮耀歸與神。』羅十五7
『我說，基督是為神的真實，作了受割禮之人的執事，要證實對列祖的應許，』羅十五8
『並叫外邦人，因著神的憐憫榮耀神，如經上所記：“因此我要在外邦中頌揚你，歌頌你的名。”』羅十五9
『又說，“外邦人阿，你們當與祂的百姓一同快樂。”』羅十五10
『又說，“萬邦阿，你們都當讚美主，願萬民都稱讚祂。”』羅十五11
『又有以賽亞說，“將來有耶西的根，就是那興起來要治理外邦的，外邦人都要寄望於祂。”』羅十五12
『但願那賜盼望的神，因信將一切喜樂平安充滿你們，使你們靠聖靈的能力，充盈滿溢的有盼望。』羅十五13
『我的弟兄們，我自己也深信你們是滿有良善，充滿了各樣的知識，也能彼此勸戒。』羅十五14
『但在有些點上，我更加放膽的寫給你們，是要題醒你們，特因神所賜我的恩典，』羅十五15
『使我為外邦人作基督耶穌的僕役，作神福音勤奮的祭司，叫所獻上的外邦人，在聖靈裏得以聖別，可蒙悅納。』羅十五16
『所以論到神的事，我在基督耶穌裏有可誇的。』羅十五17
『除了基督藉我作成的那些事，我甚麼都不敢題，只題祂藉著我的言語和行為，用神蹟奇事的能力，並那靈的能力，使外邦人順從；』羅十五18
『這樣，我從耶路撒冷，直轉到以利哩古，到處傳了基督的福音。』羅十五19
『我立定志向，不在基督的名被稱過的地方傳福音，免得建造在別人的根基上，』羅十五20
『就如經上所記：“未曾得知祂信息的，將要看見；未曾聽過的，將要領悟。”』羅十五21
『因此，我也多次被攔阻，總不得到你們那裏去。』羅十五22
『但如今這一帶地方已無處可傳，而且多年來我一直想望，當我去西班牙的時候，可以到你們那裏，』羅十五23
『盼望從你們那裏經過，得見你們，先與你們交往，稍得滿足，然後蒙你們送行到那裏去。』羅十五24
『但現在我往耶路撒冷去，供給聖徒。』羅十五25
『因為馬其頓和亞該亞人，樂意對耶路撒冷聖徒中的窮人有些交通。』羅十五26
『這是他們樂意的，其實也是他們所欠的債。因外邦人既然分享猶太人屬靈的事物，就當供給他們肉身之物。』羅十五27
『等我辦完了這事，把這果子向他們交付妥當，就要路過你們那裏，往西班牙去。』羅十五28
『我也曉得，我去的時候，必帶著基督之福的豐滿而去。』羅十五29
『弟兄們，我藉著我們的主耶穌基督，並藉著那靈的愛，懇求你們在為我向神的禱告中，與我一同竭力，』羅十五30
『叫我可以得救，脫離猶太地不信從的人，也叫我對耶路撒冷的服事，可蒙聖徒悅納，』羅十五31
『並叫我藉著神的旨意，歡歡喜喜的到你們那裏，與你們同得安息暢快。』羅十五32
『願平安的神與你們眾人同在。阿們。』羅十五33
16:1 I commend to you
our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church in Cenchrea.
16:2 I ask you to
receive her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints and to give her any help
she may need from you, for she has been a great help to many people, including
me.
16:3 Greet Priscilla
and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus.
16:4 They risked their
lives for me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to
them.
16:5 Greet also the
church that meets at their house. Greet my dear friend Epenetus, who was the
first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.
16:6 Greet Mary, who
worked very hard for you.
16:7 Greet Andronicus
and Junias, my relatives who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding
among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.
16:8 Greet Ampliatus,
whom I love in the Lord.
16:9 Greet Urbanus,
our fellow worker in Christ, and my dear friend Stachys.
16:10 Greet Apelles,
tested and approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the household of
Aristobulus.
16:11 Greet Herodion,
my relative. Greet those in the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord.
16:12 Greet Tryphena
and Tryphosa, those women who work hard in the Lord. Greet my dear friend
Persis, another woman who has worked very hard in the Lord.
16:13 Greet Rufus,
chosen in the Lord, and his mother, who has been a mother to me, too.
16:14 Greet
Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas and the brothers with them.
16:15 Greet
Philologus, Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas and all the saints with
them.
16:16 Greet one
another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send greetings.
16:17 I urge you,
brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your
way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.
16:18 For such people
are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and
flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
16:19 Everyone has
heard about your obedience, so I am full of joy over you; but I want you to be
wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil.
16:20 The God of peace
will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
16:21 Timothy, my
fellow worker, sends his greetings to you, as do Lucius, Jason and Sosipater,
my relatives.
16:22 I, Tertius, who
wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.
16:23 Gaius, whose
hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings.
Erastus, who is the city's director of public works, and our brother Quartus
send you their greetings.
16:24 [May the grace
of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you. Amen.]
16:25 Now to him who
is able to establish you by my gospel and the proclamation of Jesus Christ,
according to the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past,
16:26 but now revealed
and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal
God, so that all nations might believe and obey him--
16:27 to the only wise
God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
