7 to all who are in Rome, beloved by God, called saints: Grace to you and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ."
8 First, indeed, I am thanking my God through Jesus Christ concerning all of you, that your faith is being announced in the whole world."
9 For God is my Witness, to Whom I am offering divine service in my spirit in the evangel of His Son, how unintermittingly I am making mention of you always in my prayers"
10 beseeching, if somehow, sometime, at length I shall be prospered, in the will of God, to come to you."
11 For I am longing to see you, that I may be sharing some spiritual grace with you, for you to be established:"
12 yet this is to be consoled together among you through one another's faith, both yours and mine."
13 Now I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, that often I purposed to come to you (and was prevented hitherto) that I should be having some fruit among you also, according as among the rest of the nations."
14 To both Greeks and barbarians, to both wise and foolish, a debtor am I."
15 Thus this eagerness of mine to bring the evangel to you also, who are in Rome."
