Romans 15:21-33 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

21. But as it is written: They to whom he was not spoken of, shall see, and they that have not heard shall understand.

22. For which cause also I was hindered very much from coming to you, and have been kept away till now.

23. But now having no more place in these countries, and having a great desire these many years past to come unto you,

24. When I shall begin to take my journey into Spain, I hope that as I pass, I shall see you, and be brought on my way thither by you, if first, in part, I shall have enjoyed you:

25. But now I shall go to Jerusalem, to minister unto the saints.

26. For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a contribution for the poor of the saints that are in Jerusalem.

27. For it hath pleased them; and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they ought also in carnal things to minister to them.

28. When therefore I shall have accomplished this, and consigned to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.

29. And I know, that when I come to you, I shall come in the abundance of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

30. I beseech you therefore, brethren, through our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the charity of the Holy Ghost, that you help me in your prayers for me to God,

31. That I may be delivered from the unbelievers that are in Judea, and that the oblation of my service may be acceptable in Jerusalem to the saints.

32. That I may come to you with joy, by the will of God, and may be refreshed with you.

33. Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
