Thanksgiving and Desire to Visit Rome

8

First, I give thanks to my God, through Jesus Christ, for you all: because your faith is spoken of in the whole world.

9

For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make a commemoration of you:

10

Always in my prayers making request, if by any means now at length I may have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come unto you.

11

For I long to see you that I may impart unto you some spiritual grace, to strengthen you:

12

That is to say, that I may be comforted together in you by that which is common to us both, your faith and mine.

13

And I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I have often purposed to come unto you (and have been hindered hitherto) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

14

To the Greeks and to the barbarians, to the wise and to the unwise, I am a debtor.

15

So (as much as is in me) I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are at Rome.
