7 For this reason, accept one another, just as Christ also has accepted you, in the honor of God.
8 For I declare that Christ Jesus was the minister of circumcision because of the truth of God, so as to confirm the promises to the fathers,
9 and that the Gentiles are to honor God because of his mercy, just as it was written: "Because of this, I will confess you among the Gentiles, O Lord, and I will sing to your name."
10 And again, he says: "Rejoice, O Gentiles, along with his people."
11 And again: "All Gentiles, praise the Lord; and all peoples, magnify him."
12 And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be a root of Jesse, and he shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, and in him the Gentiles shall hope."
13 So may the God of hope fill you with every joy and with peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope and in the virtue of the Holy Spirit.
