Romans 15:24

Plan to Visit Rome

22 For this reason ^aI also have been much hindered from coming to you.

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.

25 But now ^aI am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

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

27 It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For ^aif the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, ^btheir duty is also to minister to them in material things.

28 Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them ^athis fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.

29 ^aBut I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing¹ of the gospel of Christ.

30 Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and ^athrough the love of the Spirit, ^bthat you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,
