¹⁴Now ^rI myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, ^sfilled with all knowledge, able also to admonish ⁶one another. ¹⁵Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as reminding you, ^tbecause of the grace given to me by God, ¹⁶that ^uI might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the ^voffering ⁷of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷Therefore I have reason to glory in Christ Jesus ^win the things which pertain to God. ¹⁸For I will not dare to speak of any of those things ^xwhich Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, ^yto make the Gentiles obedient—¹⁹^zin mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. ²⁰And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, ^alest I should build on another man’s foundation, ²¹but as it is written:

^b“To whom He was not announced, they shall see;

And those who have not heard shall understand.”
