BBE(i)
22 For which reason I was frequently kept from coming to you:
23 But now, having no longer any place in these parts and having had for a number of years a great desire to come to you,
24 Whenever I go to Spain for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company--
25 But now I go to Jerusalem, taking help for the saints.
26 For it has been the good pleasure of those of Macedonia and Achaia to send a certain amount of money for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.
27 Yes, it has been their good pleasure; and they are in their debt. For if the Gentiles have had a part in the things of the Spirit which were theirs, it is right for them, in the same way, to give them help in the things of the flesh.
28 So when I have done this, and have given them this fruit of love, I will go on by you into Spain.
29 And I am certain that when I come, I will be full of the blessing of Christ.
