3 For the Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of those that reproached thee fell on me.
4 For the things that were written beforehand were written for our instruction that we, through patient endurance and through the comfort of the scriptures, might have hope.
5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be unanimous among yourselves according to Christ Jesus,
6 that ye may with one accord and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Therefore bear one another, as the Christ also bore us, to the glory of God.
8 Now I say that Christ Jesus, was a minister of the circumcision, by the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers;
9 but that the Gentiles glorify God by mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess thee among the Gentiles and sing unto thy name.
