Romans 15:22-33

22For thisG1352 reasonG1352 1I have oftenG4183 been preventedG1465 from comingG2064 to you; 23but nowG3570, with noG3371 furtherG3371 placeG5117 for me in theseG3778 regionsG2824, and since I 2have hadG2192 for manyG2425 yearsG2094 a longingG1974 to comeG2064 to you 24wheneverG5613 G1437 I 3goG4198 to SpainG4681--for I hopeG1679 to seeG2300 you in passingG1279, and to be 4helpedG4311 on my wayG4311 thereG1563 by you, when I have firstG4413 5enjoyedG1705 your company 6for a whileG3313-- 25but nowG3570, 7I am goingG4198 to JerusalemG2419 8servingG1247 the 9saintsG40. 26For 10MacedoniaG3109 and 11AchaiaG882 have beenG2106 pleasedG2106 to makeG4160 a contributionG2842 for the poorG4434 among the 12saintsG40 in JerusalemG2419. 27YesG1063, they were pleasedG2106 to do so, and they are indebtedG3781 to them. For 13ifG1487 the GentilesG1484 have sharedG2841 in their spiritualG4152 thingsG4152, they are indebtedG3784 to ministerG3008 to them alsoG2532 in materialG4559 thingsG4559. 28ThereforeG3767, when I have finishedG2005 thisG3778, and 14have 15putG4972 my sealG4972 on thisG3778 fruitG2590 of theirsG846, I will 16goG565 on by wayG1223 of you to SpainG4681. 29I knowG3609 that when 17I comeG2064 to you, I will comeG2064 in the fullnessG4138 of the blessingG2129 of ChristG5547.

30NowG1161 I urgeG3870 you, brethrenG80, by our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 and by 18the loveG26 of the SpiritG4151, to 19striveG4865 togetherG4865 with me in your prayersG4335 to GodG2316 for me, 31that I may be 20rescuedG4506 from thoseG3588 who are disobedientG544 in JudeaG2453, and that my 21serviceG1248 for JerusalemG2419 may proveG1096 acceptableG2144 to the 22 23saintsG40; 32soG2443 that 24I may comeG2064 to you in joyG5479 by 25the willG2307 of GodG2316 and findG4875 refreshing restG4875 in your company. 33NowG1161 26the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 be with you allG3956. AmenG281.
