In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.Now the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,“ Therefore I will give praise to you among the Gentiles and sing to your name.”Again he says,“ Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.”Again,“ Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles! Let all the peoples praise him.”Again, Isaiah says,“ There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the Gentiles; in him the Gentiles will hope.”Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
