Romans 1:13-15

13I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, how often I planned to come to you (but have been prevented from visiting1 until now), in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles. 14I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks,2 both to the wise and the foolish. 15That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
