20 And in this way I aspired to (A)preach the gospel, not where Christ was already known by name, (B)so that I would not build on another person’s foundation; 21 but just as it is written:

(C)They who have not been told about Him will see,
And they who have not heard will understand.”

22 For this reason (D)I have often been prevented from coming to you; 23 but now, with no further place for me in these regions, and since I (E)have had for many years a longing to come to you 24 whenever I (F)go to Spain—for I hope to see you in passing, and to be (G)helped on my way there by you, when I have first (H)enjoyed your company [a]for a while— 25 but now, (I)I am going to Jerusalem, (J)serving the [b]saints. 26 For (K)Macedonia and (L)Achaia have been pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the [c]saints in Jerusalem.
