Bible verse
That is why I have often been hindered from coming to you.
Romans 15:22 · BSB
The verses around it, from Romans 15.
18 I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,
19 by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.
20 In this way I have aspired to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.
21 Rather, as it is written: “Those who were not told about Him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.”
22 That is why I have often been hindered from coming to you.
23 But now that there are no further opportunities for me in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to visit you,
24 I hope to see you on my way to Spain. And after I have enjoyed your company for a while, you can equip me for my journey.
25 Now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem to serve the saints there.
26 For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.
