PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Los que somos fuertes debemos soportar las debilidades de los que no son fuertes, y no agradarnos a nosotros mismos.
1 Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
1 Ὀφείλομεν δὲ ἡμεῖς οἱ δυνατοὶ τὰ ἀσθενήματα τῶν ἀδυνάτων βαστάζειν, καὶ μὴ ἑαυτοῖς ἀρέσκειν.
2 Cada uno de nosotros agrade a su prójimo para su bien, para edificación.
2 Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
2 ἕκαστος ἡμῶν τῷ πλησίον ἀρεσκέτω εἰς τὸ ἀγαθὸν πρὸς οἰκοδομήν·
3 Porque ni aun Cristo se agradó a sí mismo. Más bien, como está escrito: Los insultos de los que te insultaban cayeron sobre mí.
3 For even Christ didn’t please himself. But, as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.”
3 καὶ γὰρ ὁ Χριστὸς οὐχ ἑαυτῷ ἤρεσεν, ἀλλὰ καθὼς γέγραπται, οἱ ὀνειδισμοὶ τῶν ὀνειδιζόντων σε ἐπέπεσον ἐπ᾽ ἐμέ.
4 Porque todo lo que fue escrito antes, para nuestra enseñanza fue escrito, a fin de que por la paciencia y el consuelo de las Escrituras tengamos esperanza.
4 For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
4 ὅσα γὰρ προεγράφη, εἰς τὴν ἡμετέραν διδασκαλίαν προεγράφη, ἵνα διὰ τῆς ὑπομονῆς καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως τῶν γραφῶν τὴν ἐλπίδα ἔχωμεν.
5 Que el Dios de la paciencia y del consuelo les conceda vivir en armonía unos con otros, conforme a Cristo Jesús,
5 Now the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,
5 ὁ δὲ Θεὸς τῆς ὑπομονῆς καὶ τῆς παρακλήσεως δῴη ὑμῖν τὸ αὐτὸ φρονεῖν ἐν ἀλλήλοις κατὰ Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν,
6 para que juntos, a una sola voz, glorifiquen al Dios y Padre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.
6 that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
6 ἵνα ὁμοθυμαδὸν ἐν ἑνὶ στόματι δοξάζητε τὸν Θεὸν καὶ πατέρα τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
7 Por tanto, recíbanse unos a otros, como también Cristo nos recibió, para gloria de Dios.
7 Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.
7 διὸ προσλαμβάνεσθε ἀλλήλους, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς προσελάβετο ὑμᾶς εἰς δόξαν Θεοῦ.
8 Digo, pues, que Cristo llegó a ser siervo de la circuncisión por la verdad de Dios, para confirmar las promesas hechas a los padres,
8 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,
8 Λέγω δὲ Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν διάκονον γεγενῆσθαι περιτομῆς ὑπὲρ ἀληθείας Θεοῦ, εἰς τὸ βεβαιῶσαι τὰς ἐπαγγελίας τῶν πατέρων,
9 y para que los gentiles glorifiquen a Dios por su misericordia. Como está escrito: Por eso te confesaré entre los gentiles, y cantaré a tu nombre.
9 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.”
9 τὰ δὲ ἔθνη ὑπὲρ ἐλέους δοξάσαι τὸν Θεόν, καθὼς γέγραπται· διὰ τοῦτο ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ἐν ἔθνεσι, Κύριε, καὶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου ψαλῶ.
10 Y otra vez dice: Alégrense, gentiles, con su pueblo.
10 Again he says, “Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.”
10 καὶ πάλιν λέγει· εὐφράνθητε ἔθνη μετὰ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ.
11 Y otra vez: Alaben al Señor, todos los gentiles; y todos los pueblos lo alaben.
11 Again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles! Let all the peoples praise him.”
11 καὶ πάλιν· αἰνεῖτε τὸν Κύριον πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, καὶ ἐπαινέσατε αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ λαοί.
12 Y otra vez Isaías dice: Vendrá la raíz de Isaí, el que se levantará para gobernar a los gentiles; en él esperarán los gentiles.
12 Again, Isaiah says, “There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the Gentiles; in him the Gentiles will hope.”
12 καὶ πάλιν Ἡσαΐας λέγει· ἔσται ἡ ῥίζα τοῦ Ἰεσσαί, καὶ ὁ ἀνιστάμενος ἄρχειν ἐθνῶν· ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ ἔθνη ἐλπιοῦσιν.
13 Que el Dios de la esperanza los llene de todo gozo y paz en la fe, para que abunden en esperanza por el poder del Espíritu Santo.
13 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.
13 Ὁ δὲ Θεὸς τῆς ἐλπίδος πληρώσαι ὑμᾶς πάσης χαρᾶς καὶ εἰρήνης ἐν τῷ πιστεύειν, εἰς τὸ περισσεύειν ὑμᾶς ἐν τῇ ἐλπίδι ἐν δυνάμει Πνεύματος Ἁγίου.
14 Hermanos míos, yo mismo estoy convencido de que ustedes están llenos de bondad, llenos de todo conocimiento y capaces de aconsejarse unos a otros.
14 I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
14 Πέπεισμαι δέ, ἀδελφοί μου, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐγὼ περὶ ὑμῶν, ὅτι καὶ αὐτοὶ μεστοί ἐστε ἀγαθωσύνης, πεπληρωμένοι πάσης γνώσεως, δυνάμενοι καὶ ἀλλήλους νουθετεῖν.
15 Pero les he escrito con más atrevimiento en algunas partes, para recordarles estas cosas, por la gracia que Dios me dio
15 But I write the more boldly to you in part as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
15 τολμηρότερον δὲ ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, ἀδελφοί, ἀπὸ μέρους, ὡς ἐπαναμιμνήσκων ὑμᾶς, διὰ τὴν χάριν τὴν δοθεῖσάν μοι ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ
16 de ser servidor de Cristo Jesús para los gentiles, ministrando como sacerdote el evangelio de Dios, para que la ofrenda de los gentiles sea agradable, santificada por el Espíritu Santo.
16 that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving as a priest of the Good News of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
16 εἰς τὸ εἶναί με λειτουργὸν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ εἰς τὰ ἔθνη, ἱερουργοῦντα τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἵνα γένηται ἡ προσφορὰ τῶν ἐθνῶν εὐπρόσδεκτος, ἡγιασμένη ἐν Πνεύματι Ἁγίῳ.
17 Por eso tengo de qué gloriarme en Cristo Jesús en las cosas que pertenecen a Dios.
17 I have therefore my boasting in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.
17 ἔχω οὖν καύχησιν ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τὰ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν·
18 Porque no me atreveré a hablar de otra cosa sino de lo que Cristo ha hecho por medio de mí para llevar a los gentiles a la obediencia, con palabra y obra,
18 For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,
18 οὐ γὰρ τολμήσω λαλεῖν τι ὧν οὐ κατειργάσατο Χριστὸς δι᾽ ἐμοῦ εἰς ὑπακοὴν ἐθνῶν λόγῳ καὶ ἔργῳ,
19 con poder de señales y maravillas, con poder del Espíritu de Dios. Así, desde Jerusalén y por los alrededores hasta Ilírico, he anunciado plenamente el evangelio de Cristo.
19 in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God’s Spirit; so that from Jerusalem and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ;
19 ἐν δυνάμει σημείων καὶ τεράτων, ἐν δυνάμει Πνεύματος Θεοῦ, ὥστε με ἀπὸ Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ κύκλῳ μέχρι τοῦ Ἰλλυρικοῦ πεπληρωκέναι τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
20 De esta manera me esforcé por anunciar el evangelio no donde Cristo ya era conocido, para no edificar sobre fundamento ajeno.
20 yes, making it my aim to preach the Good News, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build on another’s foundation.
20 οὕτω δὲ φιλοτιμούμενον εὐαγγελίζεσθαι οὐχ ὅπου ὠνομάσθη Χριστός, ἵνα μὴ ἐπ᾽ ἀλλότριον θεμέλιον οἰκοδομῶ,
21 Más bien, como está escrito: Aquellos a quienes nunca se les anunció acerca de él verán, y los que nunca oyeron entenderán.
21 But, as it is written, “They will see, to whom no news of him came. They who haven’t heard will understand.”
21 ἀλλὰ καθὼς γέγραπται, οἷς οὐκ ἀνηγγέλη περὶ αὐτοῦ ὄψονται, καὶ οἳ οὐκ ἀκηκόασι συνήσουσι.
22 Por esta causa muchas veces se me ha impedido ir a ustedes.
22 Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
22 Διὸ καὶ ἐνεκοπτόμην τὰ πολλὰ τοῦ ἐλθεῖν πρὸς ὑμᾶς·
23 Pero ahora, no teniendo ya más campo de trabajo en estas regiones, y teniendo desde hace muchos años gran deseo de ir a ustedes,
23 but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
23 νυνὶ δὲ μηκέτι τόπον ἔχων ἐν τοῖς κλίμασι τούτοις, ἐπιποθίαν δὲ ἔχων τοῦ ἐλθεῖν πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ πολλῶν ἐτῶν,
24 iré cuando viaje a España. Espero verlos al pasar, y que ustedes me ayuden a continuar mi viaje, después de disfrutar por un tiempo de su compañía.
24 whenever I travel to Spain, I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
24 ὡς ἐὰν πορεύωμαι εἰς τὴν Σπανίαν, ἐλεύσομαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς· ἐλπίζω γὰρ διαπορευόμενος θεάσασθαι ὑμᾶς καὶ ὑφ᾽ ὑμῶν προπεμφθῆναι ἐκεῖ, ἐὰν ὑμῶν πρῶτον ἀπὸ μέρους ἐμπλησθῶ.
25 Pero ahora voy a Jerusalén para servir a los santos.
25 But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints.
25 νυνὶ δὲ πορεύομαι εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ διακονῶν τοῖς ἁγίοις.
26 Porque Macedonia y Acaya tuvieron a bien hacer una ofrenda para los pobres entre los santos que están en Jerusalén.
26 For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.
26 εὐδόκησαν γὰρ Μακεδονία καὶ Ἀχαΐα κοινωνίαν τινὰ ποιήσασθαι εἰς τοὺς πτωχοὺς τῶν ἁγίων τῶν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ.
27 Les pareció bien hacerlo, y en verdad están en deuda con ellos. Porque si los gentiles han participado de sus bienes espirituales, también deben servirles con bienes materiales.
27 Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in material things.
27 εὐδόκησαν γὰρ καὶ ὀφειλέται αὐτῶν εἰσιν· εἰ γὰρ τοῖς πνευματικοῖς αὐτῶν ἐκοινώνησαν τὰ ἔθνη, ὀφείλουσι καὶ ἐν τοῖς σαρκικοῖς λειτουργῆσαι αὐτοῖς.
28 Así que, cuando haya terminado esto y les haya entregado este fruto, pasaré por ustedes rumbo a España.
28 When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
28 τοῦτο οὖν ἐπιτελέσας, καὶ σφραγισάμενος αὐτοῖς τὸν καρπὸν τοῦτον, ἀπελεύσομαι δι᾽ ὑμῶν εἰς τὴν Σπανίαν.
29 Sé que, cuando vaya a ustedes, llegaré con la abundancia de la bendición del evangelio de Cristo.
29 I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the Good News of Christ.
29 οἶδα δὲ ὅτι ἐρχόμενος πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν πληρώματι εὐλογίας τοῦ εὐαγγελίου τοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐλεύσομαι.
30 Pero les ruego, hermanos, por nuestro Señor Jesucristo y por el amor del Espíritu, que luchen junto conmigo en oración a Dios por mí.
30 Now I beg you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
30 Παρακαλῶ δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί, διὰ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ διὰ τῆς ἀγάπης τοῦ Πνεύματος, συναγωνίσασθαί μοι ἐν ταῖς προσευχαῖς ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν,
31 Oren para que sea librado de los desobedientes que están en Judea, y para que mi servicio en Jerusalén sea bien recibido por los santos.
31 that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,
31 ἵνα ῥυσθῶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀπειθούντων ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ καὶ ἵνα ἡ διακονία μου ἡ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ εὐπρόσδεκτος γένηται τοῖς ἁγίοις,
32 Así, por la voluntad de Dios, podré ir a ustedes con gozo y descansar juntamente con ustedes.
32 that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
32 ἵνα ἐν χαρᾷ ἔλθω πρὸς ὑμᾶς διὰ θελήματος Θεοῦ καὶ συναναπαύσωμαι ὑμῖν.
33 Que el Dios de paz sea con todos ustedes. Amén.
33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
33 ὁ δὲ Θεὸς τῆς εἰρήνης μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν· ἀμήν.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Again, he is speaking of Christ's concern for us, still holding to the same topic, and showing what great things He hath done for us, and how "He pleased not Himself." (Rom. xv. 3.) And besides this, there is another point which he makes good, that those of the Gentiles are debtors to a larger amount unto God.

because the Church of Christ hath both strong and weak ones; and cannot be without either strong or weak; whence the Apostle Paul says, "Now we that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak." In that Peter said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God," he represents the strong: but in that he totters, …
