^{24 Ref} Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--

^{25 Ref} But now I go to Jerusalem, taking help for the saints.

^{26 Ref} For it has been the good pleasure of those of Macedonia and Achaia to send a certain amount of money for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.

^{27 Ref} Yes, it has been their good pleasure; and they are in their debt. For if the Gentiles have had a part in the things of the Spirit which were theirs, it is right for them, in the same way, to give them help in the things of the flesh.

^{28 Ref} So when I have done this, and have given them this fruit of love, I will go on by you into Spain.
