10. in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God’s will the way may be opened for me to come to you.
11. I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong –
12. that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
13. I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that I planned many times to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
14. I am a debtor both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.
15. That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
