17 “After an absence of several years, I came to Jerusalem to bring my people gifts for the poor(A) and to present offerings.
Romans 15:25-33
New American Standard Bible
25 but now, (A)I am going to Jerusalem, (B)serving the [a]saints. 26 For (C)Macedonia and (D)Achaia have been pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the [b]saints in Jerusalem. 27 For they were pleased to do so, and they are indebted to them. For (E)if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they are indebted to do them a service also in material things. 28 Therefore, when I have finished this, and (F)have [c]put my seal on this fruit of theirs, I will (G)go on by way of you to Spain. 29 I know that when (H)I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
30 Now I urge you, brothers and sisters, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by (I)the love of the Spirit, to (J)strive together with me in your prayers to God for me, 31 that I may be (K)rescued from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my (L)service for Jerusalem may prove acceptable to the [d](M)saints; 32 so that (N)I may come to you in joy by (O)the will of God and relax in your company. 33 Now (P)the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

Romans 15:25-33
New International Version
25 Now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem(A) in the service(B) of the Lord’s people(C) there. 26 For Macedonia(D) and Achaia(E) were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the Lord’s people in Jerusalem.(F) 27 They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in the Jews’ spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with them their material blessings.(G) 28 So after I have completed this task and have made sure that they have received this contribution, I will go to Spain(H) and visit you on the way. 29 I know that when I come to you,(I) I will come in the full measure of the blessing of Christ.
30 I urge you, brothers and sisters, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit,(J) to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.(K) 31 Pray that I may be kept safe(L) from the unbelievers in Judea and that the contribution(M) I take to Jerusalem may be favorably received by the Lord’s people(N) there, 32 so that I may come to you(O) with joy, by God’s will,(P) and in your company be refreshed.(Q) 33 The God of peace(R) be with you all. Amen.
