11For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
12that is, that I with you may be comforted in you, each of us by the other`s faith, both yours and mine.
13And I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you (and was hindered hitherto), that I might have some fruit in you also, even as in the rest of the Gentiles.
14I am debtor both to Greeks and to Barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.
15So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are in Rome.
16For I am not ashamed of the gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17For therein is revealed a righteousness of God from faith unto faith: as it is written, But the righteous shall live by faith.
