Romans 15:21-27

²¹On the contrary, I teach non-Jews, so that what happens may be like what was written {the prophet Isaiah wrote} in the Scriptures about the Messiah: “Those who did not hear about him previously will know the truth about him. Truly, those who have not heard about him will hear and understand his message DOU.”

²²Because I have attempted to preach the message about Christ in places where they have not heard about him, I have been hindered {things have hindered me} many times from being able to visit you.

²³But now there are no more places in these regions where people have not heard about Christ. Furthermore, for several years I have wanted to visit you.

²⁴So I hope to go/come to see you. I hope to do that as soon as I am on my way to the provinces in Spain. I hope to see you as I journey through your area, and I hope that by whatever you give me EUP you will help me on my journey to Spain. But before I go there, I want to enjoy being with you for a little while, although I would like to stay with you longer.

²⁵But I cannot visit you now, because I am about to go to Jerusalem in order to take money EUP for God's people there.

²⁶The believers in Macedonia and Achaia provinces MTY decided to contribute some money EUP for those of God's people in Jerusalem who are poor.

²⁷They themselves decided to do this, but truly they owe something to God's people in Jerusalem. The non-Jewish believers benefited spiritually from Jewish believers as a result of hearing the message about Christ from them, so the non-Jews should also help the Jewish believers in Jerusalem by giving them material things (OR, money) EUP.
