Romans 1:8-15 - Paul Wants To Visit Rome

⁸ First, I return thanks to my God by Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is announced in the whole world. ⁹ For my witness is God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, so that continually I make mention of you, always supplicating in my prayers; ¹⁰ If in any way I shall be prospered on my way in the will of God to come to you. ¹¹ For I long to see you, That I might impart to you some spiritual grace, in order for you to be firm; ¹² And this is, to be comforted together in you by the faith in one another both of you and of me.

¹³ And I would not ye should be ignorant, brethren, that many times I proposed to come to you, (and I was hindered till this time,) that I might have some fruit also in you, and in the rest of the nations. ¹⁴ Both to Greeks, and foreigners; both to wise and unwise, I am debtor. ¹⁵ So that for my part being zealous, also to you that in Rome, to announce the good news.
