Romans 15:16-18

New Catholic Bible

¹⁶ He has appointed me to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, in order that the Gentiles might become an acceptable offering consecrated by the Holy Spirit.

¹⁷ In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to glory in my service of God. ¹⁸ I will not dare to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to lead the Gentiles to obedience to God by word and deed,
