And those who have not heard shall understand.”

23 But now no longer having a place in these parts, and ^ahaving a great desire these many years to come to you,

24 whenever I journey to Spain,¹ I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, ^aand to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may ^benjoy your company for a while.

26 For ^ait pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.
