Romans 15:19-25 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

19. with the power of signs and wonders, by power of the Holy Spirit. For in this way, from Jerusalem, throughout its surroundings, as far as Illyricum, I have replenished the Gospel of Christ.

20. And so I have preached this Gospel, not where Christ was known by name, lest I build upon the foundation of another,

21. but just as it was written: "Those to whom he was not announced shall perceive, and those who have not heard shall understand."

22. Because of this also, I was greatly hindered in coming to you, and I have been prevented until the present time.

23. Yet truly now, having no other destination in these regions, and having already had a great desire to come to you over the past many years,

24. when I begin to set out on my journey to Spain, I hope that, as I pass by, I may see you, and I may be guided from there by you, after first having borne some fruit among you.

25. But next I will set out for Jerusalem, to minister to the saints.
