Romans 15:28-33

15:28 Therefore after I have completed this and have safely delivered this bounty to them, ¹  I will set out for Spain by way of you, 15:29 and I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of Christ’s blessing.

15:30 Now I urge you, brothers and sisters, ²  through our Lord Jesus Christ and through the love of the Spirit, to join fervently with me in prayer to God on my behalf. 15:31 Pray ³  that I may be rescued from those who are disobedient in Judea and that my ministry in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints, 15:32 so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company. 15:33 Now may the God of peace be with all of you. Amen. ⁴ 

¹ tn Grk “have sealed this fruit to them.”

² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.

³ tn Verses 30-31 form one long sentence in the Greek but have been divided into two distinct sentences for clarity in English.

⁴ tc Some mss lack the word “Amen” here, one of them (Ì⁴⁶) also inserting 16:25-27 at this point. See the tc note at 16:25 for more information.
