The Scriptures 1998

Romans 15:7-17 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

7. So accept one another, as Messiah also did accept us, to the esteem of Elohim.

8. And I say that יהושע Messiah has become a servant of the circumcised for the truth of Elohim, to confirm the promises made to the fathers,

9. and for the gentiles to praise Elohim for His compassion, as it has been written, “Because of this I shall confess to You among the gentiles, and I shall sing to Your Name.”

10. And again it says, “Rejoice, O gentiles, with His people!”

11. And again, “Praise יהוה, all you gentiles! Praise Him, all you peoples!”

12. And again, Yeshayahu says, “There shall be a root of Yishai, and He who shall rise to reign over the gentiles, on Him the gentiles shall set their expectation.”

13. And the Elohim of expectation fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you overflow with expectation by the power of the Set-apart Spirit.

14. Now I myself am persuaded concerning you, my brothers, that you too are filled with goodness, complete in all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

15. But I have written more boldly to you, in part, as reminding you, because of the favour given to me by Elohim,

16. to be a servant of יהושע Messiah to the gentiles, with the priestly duty of bringing the Good News of Elohim, so that the offering of the gentiles becomes acceptable, set apart by the Set-apart Spirit.

17. Therefore I have cause for boasting in Messiah יהושע in the matters pertaining to Elohim.
