Romans 1:13-17 You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you but till now I was kept from it, so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you but till now I was kept from it, so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations. ¹⁴ I have a debt to Greeks and to the nations outside; to the wise and to those who have no learning. ¹⁵ For which reason I have the desire, as far as I am able, to give the knowledge of the good news to you who are in Rome. ¹⁶ For I have no feeling of shame about the good news, because it is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek. ¹⁷ For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.
