Romans 15:22-24

Living Bible

²² In fact, that is the very reason I have been so long in coming to visit you.

²³ But now at last I am through with my work here, and I am ready to come after all these long years of waiting. ²⁴ For I am planning to take a trip to Spain, and when I do, I will stop off there in Rome; and after we have had a good time together for a little while, you can send me on my way again.
