Romans 1:12-14
Tree of Life Version
12 That is to say, we would be encouraged together by one another’s faithfulness—both yours and mine.
13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters,[a] that many times I planned to come to you (though I was prevented until now)—so I might have some fruit among you also, just as I have among the rest of the nations. 14 I have an obligation to both Greeks and barbarians, to both the wise and the foolish.
