Romans 15:16-33

16to be 1a ministerG3011 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 to the GentilesG1484, ministeringG2418 asG2418 aG2418 priestG2418 the 2gospelG2098 of GodG2316, soG2443 thatG2443 my 3offeringG4376 of the GentilesG1484 may becomeG1096 acceptableG2144, sanctifiedG37 by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 17ThereforeG3767 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 I haveG2192 found 4reasonG2746 forG2746 boastingG2746 in 5things pertainingG4314 to GodG2316. 186For I will not presumeG5111 to speakG2980 of anythingG5100 7exceptG3756 whatG3739 8ChristG5547 has accomplishedG2716 throughG1223 me, 9resultingG1519 inG1519 the obedienceG5218 of the GentilesG1484 by wordG3056 and deedG2041, 19in the powerG1411 of 1011signsG4592 and wondersG5059, 12in the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151; soG5620 thatG5620 13from JerusalemG2419 and allG2945 aroundG2945 as 14farG3360 as IllyricumG2437 I have 15fullyG4137 preachedG4137 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547. 20And inG3779 thisG3779 wayG3779 I aspiredG5389 to 16preachG2097 the gospelG2097, not whereG3699 ChristG5547 was already knownG3687 byG3687 nameG3687, 17soG2443 thatG2443 I would not buildG3618 on anotherG245 person’sG245 foundationG2310; 21but justG2531 asG2531 it is writtenG1125: “18They whoG3739 have not been toldG312 aboutG4012 Him will seeG3708, And they who have not heardG191 will understandG4920.”

22For thisG1352 reasonG1352 19I have oftenG4183 been preventedG1465 from comingG2064 to you; 23but nowG3570, with noG3371 furtherG3371 placeG5117 for me in theseG3778 regionsG2824, and since I 20have hadG2192 for manyG2425 yearsG2094 a longingG1974 to comeG2064 to you 24wheneverG5613G1437 I 21goG4198 to SpainG4681--for I hopeG1679 to seeG2300 you in passingG1279, and to be 22helpedG4311 onG4311 my wayG4311 thereG1563 by you, when I have firstG4413 23enjoyedG1705 your company 24for a whileG3313-- 25but nowG3570, 25I am goingG4198 to JerusalemG2419, 26servingG1247 the 27saintsG40. 26For 28MacedoniaG3109 and 29AchaiaG882 have beenG2106 pleasedG2106 to makeG4160 a contributionG2842 for the poorG4434 among the 30saintsG40 in JerusalemG2419. 27For they were pleasedG2106 to do so, and they are indebtedG3781 to them. For 31ifG1487 the GentilesG1484 have sharedG2841 in their spiritualG4152 thingsG4152, they are indebtedG3784 to doG3008 them aG3008 serviceG3008 alsoG2532 in materialG4559 thingsG4559. 28ThereforeG3767, when I have finishedG2005 thisG3778, and 32have 33putG4972 my sealG4972 onG4972 thisG3778 fruitG2590 of theirsG846, I will 34goG565 on by wayG1223 of you to SpainG4681. 29I knowG3609 that when 35I comeG2064 to you, I will comeG2064 in the fullnessG4138 of the blessingG2129 of ChristG5547.

30NowG1161 I urgeG3870 you, brothersG80 and sisters, by our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 and by 36the loveG26 of the SpiritG4151, to 37striveG4865 togetherG4865 with me in your prayersG4335 to GodG2316 for me, 31that I may be 38rescuedG4506 from thoseG3588 who are disobedientG544 in JudeaG2449, and that my 39serviceG1248 for JerusalemG2419 may proveG1096 acceptableG2144 to the 4041saintsG40; 32soG2443 thatG2443 42I may comeG2064 to you in joyG5479 by 43the willG2307 of GodG2316 and relaxG4875 inG4875 your companyG4875. 33NowG1161 44the GodG2316 of peaceG1515 be with you allG3956. AmenG281.
