1 Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the powerless and not just please ourselves.
2 Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, for building him up.
3 For even Messiah did not please Himself, but as it is written, “The insults of those who insulted You have fallen on Me.”
4 For whatever was written before was written for our instruction, so that through patience and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
