23. But now with no place in these regions, and since I have had a desire for many years to come to you,
24. I hope to see you while traveling through when I go to Spain—and to be helped on my journey there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a bit.
25. But now I am going to Jerusalem, bringing aid to the kedoshim.
26. For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the believers in Jerusalem.
27. Yes, they were pleased to do so, and they are under obligation to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual blessings, they also ought to serve them in material blessings.
28. So when I have finished delivering the collection safely to them, I will head for Spain by way of you.
29. Now I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Messiah.
30. Now I urge you, brethren, through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah and through the love of the Ruach, to press on together with me—with prayers to God on my behalf.
31. Pray that I might be rescued from the unbelieving Judeans, and that my service for Jerusalem might be acceptable to the kedoshim.
32. Then, God willing, I may come to you in joy, and together with you find rest.
33. Now may the God of shalom be with you all. Amen.
