Romans 15:23-29

English Standard Version

²³ But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and ^(A)since I have longed for many years to come to you, ²⁴ I hope to see you in passing as I go ^(B)to Spain, and ^(C)to be helped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a while. ²⁵ At present, however, ^(D)I am going to Jerusalem bringing aid to the saints. ²⁶ For ^(E)Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem. ²⁷ For they were pleased to do it, and indeed ^(F)they owe it to them. 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.
