Romans 1:13-17 But I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that frequently I purposed to come to you, and was hindered hitherto, in order that I may have some fruit among you, as well as also among other Gentiles.

Godbey⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ But I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that frequently I purposed to come to you, and was hindered hitherto, in order that I may have some fruit among you, as well as also among other Gentiles. ¹⁴ I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the barbarians; both to the wise, and the unwise: ¹⁵ so to my utmost ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also. ¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. ¹⁷ For the righteousness of God is revealed in him from faith to faith: as has been written, But the just shall live by faith.
