6. among whom ye are also the called of Jesus Christ;
7. to all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints; ye have grace and peace of God our Father and of the Lord Jesus, the Christ.
8. First, I thank my God through Jesus, the Christ, regarding you all, that your faith is preached in all the world.
9. For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I always remember you in my prayers,
10. making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
11. For I long to see you that I may impart with you some spiritual gift to confirm you,
12. that is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
