Romans 15:21-27

²¹rather, as it is written: “Those to whom He was not announced will see, and those who have not heard will understand.”

²²That is why I have been hindered these many times from coming to you.

²³But now, no longer having a place in these parts, and having a longing these many years to come to you,

²⁴whenever I travel to Spain I will come to you. Because I hope to see you while passing through, and to be sent on my way there by you, if I may first enjoy your company for a while.

²⁵Now, however, I am traveling to Jerusalem, serving the saints.

²⁶Because Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.

²⁷Yes, they were pleased, and they are indebted to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they are also obligated to minister to them in physical things.
