Romans 15:22-29
22For this reason aI have often been prevented from coming to you; 23but now, with no further place for me in these regions, and since I ahave had for many years a longing to come to you 24whenever I ago to Spain—for I hope, passing through, to see you, and to be bhelped on my way there by you, when I have first cenjoyed your company 1for a while. 25But now aI am going to Jerusalem to bserve the 1saints. 26For aMacedonia and bAchaia were pleased to 1share with the poor among the saints in Jerusalem. 27Yes, they were pleased to do so, and they are indebted to them. For aif the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they are indebted to minister to them also in material things. 28Therefore, when I have completed this and ahave 1put my seal on this fruit of theirs, I will bgo on by way of you to Spain. 29And I know that when aI come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
