Romans 15:23-28

Context
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. 15:26 For Macedonia and Achaia are pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem. 15:27 For they were pleased to do this, and indeed they are indebted to the Jerusalem saints. 4  For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they are obligated also to minister to them in material things. 15:28 Therefore after I have completed this and have safely delivered this bounty to them, 5  I will set out for Spain by way of you,

1 tn Grk “now no longer having a place…I have.”

2 tn Grk “but having a desire…for many years.”

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

4 tn Grk “to them”; the referent (the Jerusalem saints) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

5 tn Grk “have sealed this fruit to them.”
