Romans 15:18-26

18 1For I will not presumeG5111 to speakG2980 of anythingG5100 2exceptG3756 whatG3739 3ChristG5547 has accomplishedG2716 throughG1223 me, 4resultingG1519 inG1519 the obedienceG5218 of the GentilesG1484 by wordG3056 and deedG2041, 19in the powerG1411 of 5 6signsG4592 and wondersG5059, 7in the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151; soG5620 thatG5620 8from JerusalemG2419 and allG2945 aroundG2945 as 9farG3360 as IllyricumG2437 I have 10fullyG4137 preachedG4137 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547. 20And inG3779 thisG3779 wayG3779 I aspiredG5389 to 11preachG2097 the gospelG2097, not whereG3699 ChristG5547 was already knownG3687 byG3687 nameG3687, 12soG2443 thatG2443 I would not buildG3618 on anotherG245 person’sG245 foundationG2310; 21but justG2531 asG2531 it is writtenG1125: “13They whoG3739 have not been toldG312 aboutG4012 Him will seeG3708, And they who have not heardG191 will understandG4920.”

22For thisG1352 reasonG1352 14I have oftenG4183 been preventedG1465 from comingG2064 to you; 23but nowG3570, with noG3371 furtherG3371 placeG5117 for me in theseG3778 regionsG2824, and since I 15have hadG2192 for manyG2425 yearsG2094 a longingG1974 to comeG2064 to you 24wheneverG5613 G1437 I 16goG4198 to SpainG4681--for I hopeG1679 to seeG2300 you in passingG1279, and to be 17helpedG4311 onG4311 my wayG4311 thereG1563 by you, when I have firstG4413 18enjoyedG1705 your company 19for a whileG3313-- 25but nowG3570, 20I am goingG4198 to JerusalemG2419, 21servingG1247 the 22saintsG40. 26For 23MacedoniaG3109 and 24AchaiaG882 have beenG2106 pleasedG2106 to makeG4160 a contributionG2842 for the poorG4434 among the 25saintsG40 in JerusalemG2419.
