drenched with blood like the corners of the altar.

Romans 15:25-28
New Living Translation

Since the Gentiles received the spiritual blessings of the Good News from the believers in Jerusalem, they feel the least they can do in return is to help them financially. 28 As soon as I have delivered this money and completed this good deed of theirs, I will come to see you on my way to Spain.

and destroy your pagan cities.

on all the nations that refuse to obey me.”
