Romans 15:26-27 For the Christians in Macedonia and Achaia Note: These were provinces in Greece thought it was a good idea to take up an offering for the poor saints at Jerusalem.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁶ For [the Christians in] Macedonia and Achaia [Note: These were provinces in Greece] thought it was a good idea to take up an offering for the poor saints at Jerusalem. ²⁷ For they thought it was a good idea, and [besides] they were indebted to those Jewish Christians. For if the Gentiles [have] shared in the spiritual blessings of the Jews, [then] they owe it to those Jews to help meet their material needs.
