1 We who are strong must help the weak and not just make self happy. 2 Each one of you help your neighbor so they get strong and good. ❤️ 3 Jesus did not live to make Himself happy; bad words to God fell on Him. ✝️♂️ 4 The old book helps us learn and gives us hope as we wait. 5 May God help all of you think the same and get along like Jesus wants. 6 Then all of you can thank God the Father with one big voice. 7 So welcome each other, like Jesus welcomed you, to show how good God is. ❤️ 8 Jesus came to serve the Jews and to show God keeps His word. ✝️ 9 Then people who are not Jews will say thank You to God; the book says, I will sing to You with the nations. 10 Be glad, other nations, with His people. 11 All nations, praise the Lord; all people, say big thanks to Him. 12 The prophet Isaiah said, A Son from Jesse will come; He will lead other nations, and they will hope in Him. 13 May God fill you with joy and peace as you trust Him; by God's Holy Spirit your hope will grow big. ️ 14 Paul says, I think you are full of good and can help teach each other. 15 I wrote strong words to help you remember; God gave me this job. ✍️ 16 God made me a worker for Jesus to people who are not Jews; I tell the good news so they can give their lives to God; God's Holy Spirit makes them clean. ️ 17 I am glad in Jesus for what God did. ✝️ 18 I talk only about what Jesus did by me; He helped other nations obey by my words and my acts. ️ 19 God did big power works by God's Holy Spirit; I told people about Jesus from Jerusalem to Illyricum. ⚡️ 20 I try to go where people do not know Jesus yet. ️ 21 The book says, People who did not hear will see; people who did not know will learn. 22 This is why I could not come to you before. ⏳ 23 Now my work here is done, and I wanted to see you for many years. 24 I plan to visit you on my way to Spain; please help me, and I will be happy to see you. ➡️ 25 But now I go to Jerusalem to help God's people. ️ 26 The people in Macedonia and Achaia gave gifts for the poor in Jerusalem. 27 They were glad to give; they got good things from the Jews, so they should share money and care. 28 After I give the gift, I will go to Spain and stop by to see you. ➡️ 29 I know I will come with Jesus’ big blessing. ✝️ 30 Friends, I ask you by our Lord Jesus Christ and by God's Holy Spirit to pray hard with me. ️ 31 Pray God keeps me safe from people in Judea who do not believe, and that the gift is good for God's people in Jerusalem. ️ 32 Then, if God wants, I will come to you with joy and rest with you. 33 May the God of peace be with all of you. Amen. ️
