Romans 15:14-16
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Brothers, I Wrote To You As a Minister of Christ To The Gentiles, Serving The Gospel
14 Now I am convinced, my brothers— even I myself concerning you— that you yourselves also are full of goodness, having been filled with all knowledge, being able also to admonish one another. 15 But I wrote more-boldly[a] to you, in part[b] as reminding you again, because of the grace having been given to me by God 16 so that I might be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, performing-priestly-service-for[c] the good-news of God in order that the offering of [d] the Gentiles might become acceptable[e], having been sanctified[f] by the Holy Spirit.

New International Version
Paul the Minister to the Gentiles
14 I myself am convinced, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness,(A) filled with knowledge(B) and competent to instruct one another. 15 Yet I have written you quite boldly on some points to remind you of them again, because of the grace God gave me(C) 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles.(D) He gave me the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God,(E) so that the Gentiles might become an offering(F) acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
