Roma 15:22-25

Paul’s Intention of Visiting the Romans

15:22 This is the reason I was often hindered from coming to you. 15:23 But now there is nothing more to keep me ¹  in these regions, and I have for many years desired ²  to come to you 15:24 when I go to Spain. For I hope to visit you when I pass through and that you will help me ³  on my journey there, after I have enjoyed your company for a while.

15:25 But now I go to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

[15:23]  ¹ tn Grk “now no longer having a place…I have.”

[15:23]  ² tn Grk “but having a desire…for many years.”

[15:24]  ³ tn Grk “and to be helped by you.” The passive construction was changed to an active one in the translation.
