14 For you, brethren, became imitators aof the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For byou also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans,
15 awho killed both the Lord Jesus and btheir own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they do not please God cand are contrary to all men,
16 aforbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, so as always bto fill up the measure of their sins; cbut wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.
Longing to See Them
17 But we, brethren, having been taken away from you for a short time ain presence, not in heart, endeavored more eagerly to see your face with great desire.
18 Therefore we wanted to come to you—even I, Paul, time and again—but aSatan hindered us.
