RO-1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called [to be] an
apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
RO-1:2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy
scriptures,)
RO-1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made
of the seed of David according to the flesh;
RO-1:4 And declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according
to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
RO-1:5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for
obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
RO-1:6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
RO-1:7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called [to be]
saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord
Jesus Christ.
RO-1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all,
that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
RO-1:9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the
gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you
always in my prayers;
RO-1:10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might
have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
RO-1:11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some
spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
RO-1:12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by
the mutual faith both of you and me.
RO-1:13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that
oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,)
that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other
Gentiles.
RO-1:14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians;
both to the wise, and to the unwise.
RO-1:15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel
to you that are at Rome also.
RO-1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is
the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to
the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
RO-1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from
faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
RO-1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in
unrighteousness;
RO-1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in
them; for God hath showed [it] unto them.
RO-1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the
world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are
made, [even] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are
without excuse:
RO-1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him]
not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their
imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
RO-1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
RO-1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an
image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted
beasts, and creeping things.
RO-1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through
the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies
between themselves:
RO-1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped
and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed
for ever. Amen.
RO-1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:
for even their women did change the natural use into that which
is against nature:
RO-1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of
the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men
working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that
recompense of their error which was meet.
RO-1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their]
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those
things which are not convenient;
RO-1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder,
debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
RO-1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
RO-1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural
affection, implacable, unmerciful:
RO-1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit
such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have
pleasure in them that do them.
