11 For I long to see you that I may impart with you some spiritual gift to confirm you,
12 that is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that many times I purposed to come unto you (but up until now I have been unable) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
14 I am debtor both to the Greeks and to the Barbarians; both to the wise and to the unwise.
15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to announce the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of the Christ; for it is the power of God to give saving health to every one that believes: to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
17 For in him is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
