6 Then you will all be joined together. And all together you will give glory to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Christ accepted you, so you should accept each other. This will bring honor to God.
8 I tell you that Christ became a servant of the Jews to show that God has done what he promised their great ancestors.
9 Christ also did this so that the non-Jewish people could praise God for the mercy he gives to them. The Scriptures say, “So I will give thanks to you among the people of other nations; I will sing praise to your name.” Psalm 18:49
10 And the Scriptures say, “You people of other nations should be happy together with God’s people.” Deuteronomy 32:43
11 The Scriptures also say, “Praise the Lord all you people of other nations; all people should praise the Lord.” Psalm 117:1
12 And Isaiah says, “Someone will come from Jesse’s family. He will come to rule over the nations, and they will put their hope in him.” Isaiah 11:10
