New International Reader's Version

Romans 15:9-14 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

9. Jesus became a servant of the Jews so that people who are not Jews could give glory to God for his mercy. It is written, "I will praise you among those who aren't Jews. I will sing praises to you." (2 Samuel 22:50; Psalm 18:49)

10. Again it says, "You non-Jews, be full of joy. Be joyful together with God's people." (Deuteronomy 32:43)

11. And again it says, "All you non-Jews, praise the Lord. All you nations, sing praises to him." (Psalm 117:1)

12. And Isaiah says, "The Root of Jesse will grow up quickly. He will rule over the nations. Those who aren't Jews will put their hope in him." (Isaiah 11:10)

13. May the God who gives hope fill you with great joy. May you have perfect peace as you trust in him. May the power of the Holy Spirit fill you with hope.

14. My brothers and sisters, I am sure that you are full of goodness. What you know is complete. You are able to teach one another.
