Romans 1:8-15

Thanksgiving and Desire to Visit Rome

8
First I thanke my God through Iesus Christ for you all, because your faith is published throughout the whole world.
9
For God is my witnesse (whom I serue in my spirit in the Gospel of his Sonne) that without ceasing I make mention of you
10
Alwayes in my prayers, beseeching that by some meanes, one time or other I might haue a prosperous iourney by the will of God, to come vnto you.
11
For I long to see you, that I might bestowe among you some spirituall gift, that you might be strengthened:
12
That is, that I might be comforted together with you, through our mutuall faith, both yours and mine.
13
Now my brethren, I would that ye should not be ignorant, how that I haue oftentimes purposed to come vnto you (but haue bene let hitherto) that I might haue some fruite also among you, as I haue among the other Gentiles.
14
I am detter both to the Grecians, and to the Barbarians, both to the wise men and vnto the vnwise.
15
Therefore, as much as in me is, I am readie to preach ye Gospel to you also that are at Rome.
