5. through whom we received grace and the office of emissary for obedience of faith amongst all the nations for his name’s sake;
6. amongst whom you are also called to belong to Yeshua the Messiah;
7. to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be holy ones: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
8. First, I thank my God through Yeshua the Messiah for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
9. For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,
10. requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
11. For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;
12. that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
13. Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you, and was hindered so far, that I might have some fruit amongst you also, even as amongst the rest of the Gentiles.
14. I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
