Kehilah In Rome 15:21-31 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

21. But, as it is written, "Those who had not been told about Him will see, and those who had not heard shall understand" [Isa 52:15].

22. For this reason I have also regularly been prevented from coming to you.

23. But now, als (since) I no longer have scope in these regions and have had a tshuka (longing) to come to you for many years,

24. When I travel to Spain...For I hope to see you as I pass through and to be sent on my way there by you, once I have had the full pleasure of being with you for a time.

25. But now I am traveling to Yerushalayim in avodas kodesh service to the Kadoshim (Messianic Jews in Jerusalem).

26. For the kehillot of Moshiach (Messianic congregations) in Macedonia and Achaia (Greece) chose to make some tzedakah (contribution) for the aniyim (poor) among the Kadoshim in Yerushalayim.

27. For they chose to do so and owe them a choiv (debt), for if the non-Jews have received a share in their spiritual affairs, they ought to minister to the Messianic Jews in material affairs.

28. When, therefore, I have completed this (collection journey avodas kodesh service) and sealed this p'ri (fruit) to them, I will go by way of you to Spain.

29. And I have da'as that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the Birkat HaMoshiach.

30. I appeal to you, Achim b'Moshiach, through Adoneinu Moshiach Yehoshua and the ahavas HaRuach Hakodesh, to contend with me in your tefillos to Hashem on my behalf,

31. that I might be delivered from those without mishma'at in Yehudah and my avodas kodesh service to Yerushalayim might be acceptable to the Kadoshim
