rsv@Romans:15:1 @ We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves;

rsv@Romans:15:2 @ let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to edify him.

rsv@Romans:15:3 @ For Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell on me."

rsv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

rsv@Romans:15:6 @ that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
