8 First I thanke my God through Iesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9 For God is my witnesse, whom I serue with my spirit in the Gospel of his Sonne, that without ceasing I make mention of you, alwayes in my prayers,
10 Making request, (if by any meanes now at length I might haue a prosperous iourney by the will of God) to come vnto you.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart vnto you some spirituall gift, to the end you may be established,
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 haue you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come vnto you, (but was let hitherto) that I might haue some fruit among you also, euen as among other Gentiles.
14 I am debter both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians, both to the wise, and to the vnwise.
15 So, as much as in mee is, I am ready to preach the Gospel to you that are at Rome also.
