    7To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    8First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

    9For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;

    10Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.

    11For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;

    12That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

    13Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

    14I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.

    15So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
