Romans 15:25-33 ▼

25 but now I am going to Jerusalem, to distribute charity to the converts.

26 for those of Macedonia and Achaia, have thought fit to make a contribution for the poor converts at Jerusalem.

27 they have thought fit, I say, and they owed them as much, for if the Gentiles have participated of their spirituals, they are bound on their side to minister to them in their temporals.

28 when I have dispatch'd this affair, and have secur'd to them this collection, I will come to you in my way to Spain.

29 and I know that when I do come, I shall come charged with the blessings of Christ.

30 in the mean time, I conjure you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the spirit, that you join with me in earnest prayers to God for me;

31 that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea; and that the charitable service which I am employed about, for the converts at Jerusalem, may be acceptable to them:

32 that by the will of God we may meet with joy, and rest together in peace.

33 now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
