Romans 15:17-21
World English Bible
17 I have therefore my boasting in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God. 18 For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed, 19 in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God’s Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ; 20 yes, making it my aim to preach the Good News, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build on another’s foundation. 21 But, as it is written,
“They will see, to whom no news of him came.
They who haven’t heard will understand.”
Romans 15:17-21
English Standard Version
17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have (A)reason to be proud of (B)my work for God. 18 For I will not venture to speak of anything except (C)what Christ has accomplished through me (D)to bring the Gentiles to obedience—by word and deed, 19 (E)by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God—so that (F)from Jerusalem and all the way around (G)to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ; 20 and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, (H)lest I build on someone else's foundation, 21 but as it is written,
(I)“Those who have never been told of him will see,
and those who have never heard will understand.”
