For if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings. 28 When therefore I have completed this and have delivered to them what has been collected,[a] I will leave (G)for Spain by way of you. 29 I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of the blessing[b] of Christ.
