7. To all those in Rome, loved by God, called to be kedoshim: Grace to you and shalom from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah!
8. First, I thank my God through Messiah Yeshua for all of you, because your faithfulness is made known throughout the whole world.
9. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the Good News of His Son. How unceasingly I make mention of you,
10. always pleading in my prayers, if somehow by God’s will now at last I will be granted a good journey to come to you.
11. For I long to see you, so I may share with you some spiritual gift to strengthen you.
