11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be strengthened.
12 This is so that I may be encouraged together with you by each other’s faith, both yours and mine.
13 Now I would not have you unaware, brothers, that I often intended to come to you (but was prevented until now), that I might have a harvest among you also, even as among the other Gentiles.
14 I am a debtor both to the Greeks and to the barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise.
15 So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. For it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith. As it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
