ROM 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated *3972 *1401 *2424 *5547 *2822 *0652 *0873 unto the gospel of God, *2098 *2316 2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) *3739 *4279 *4279 *4396 *0040 *1124 3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of *4012 *5207 *2424 *5547 *2962 *3588 *1096 *4690 David according to the flesh; *1138 *2596 *4561 4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit *3724 *5207 *2316 *1411 *2596 *4151 of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: *0042 *0386 *3498 5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the *3739 *2983 *5485 *0651 *5218 faith among all nations, for his name: *4102 *1722 *3956 *1484 *3686 6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ: *1722 *3739 *2532 *2822 *2424 *5547 7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to *3956 *4516 *0027 *2316 *2822 *0040 *5485 you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. *1515 *2316 *3962 *2962 *2424 *5547 8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith *4412 *2168 *2316 *1223 *2424 *5547 *3956 *5216 *4102 is spoken of throughout the whole world. *2605 *1722 *3650 *2889 9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his *2316 *3144 *3739 *3000 *4151 *2098 Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; *5207 *0089 *0089 *4160 *3417 *3842 *4335 10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a *1189 *1189 *1513 *4458 *4458 *2236 *4218 *4218 prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you. *2137 *2137 *2307 *2316 *2064 11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, *1971 *1492 *3330 *5100 *4152 *5486 to the end ye may be established; *1519 *4741 12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith *4837 *4837 *0240 *4102 both of you and me. *5037 13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed *1161 *2309 *0050 *0080 *4178 *4388 to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit *2064 *2967 *1204 *2192 *5100 *2590 among you also, even as among other Gentiles. *1722 *2532 *2532 *1722 *3062 *1484 14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the *1510 *3781 *5037 *1672 *0915 *5037 wise, and to the unwise. *4680 *0453 15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that *3779 *3588 *4289 *2097 *2097 are at Rome also. *1722 *4516 *2532 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God *1870 *2098 *5547 *1411 *2316 unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to *4991 *3956 *4100 *2453 *4412 *2532 the Greek. *1672 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: *0846 *1343 *2316 *0601 *4102 *4102 as it is written, The just shall live by faith. *1125 *1342 *2198 *4102 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness *3709 *2316 *0601 *3772 *1909 *3956 *0763 and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; *0093 *0444 *3588 *2722 *0225 *0093 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God *1360 *1110 *2316 *5319 *2316 hath shewed it unto them. *5319 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are *0517 *2937 *2889 clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his *2529 *2529 *3539 *4161 eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: *0126 *1411 *2305 *1519 *0379 *0379 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither *1360 *1097 *2316 *1392 *2316 *2228 were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish *2168 *3154 *3154 *1261 *0801 heart was darkened. *2588 *4654 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, *5335 *4680 *3471 *3471 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like *0236 *1391 *0862 *2316 *1722 *1504 *3667 to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping *5349 *0444 *4071 *5074 *5074 *2062 things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of *1352 *2316 *2532 *3860 *0167 *1722 *1939 their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: *2588 *0818 *4983 *1722 *1438 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the *3748 *3337 *0225 *2316 *1722 *5579 *4573 *3000 creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. *2937 *3844 *3844 *2936 *3739 *2128 *0165 *0281 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their *5124 *1223 *2316 *3860 *0819 *3806 *5037 women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: *2338 *3337 *5446 *5540 *1519 *3844 *5449 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned *3668 *2532 *0730 *0863 *5446 *5540 *2338 *1572 in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is *3715 *0240 *1519 *0240 *0730 *0730 *2716 unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which *0808 *0618 *1438 *0489 *4106 *3739 was meet. *1163 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God *2531 *1381 *2192 *2316 *1922 *2316 gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not *3860 *3860 *0096 *3563 *4160 *3588 convenient; *2520 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, *4137 *3956 *0093 *4202 *4189 covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, *4124 *2549 *3324 *5355 *5408 *2054 *1388 malignity; whisperers, *2550 *5588 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of *2637 *2319 *2319 *5197 *5244 *0213 *2182 evil things, disobedient to parents, *2556 *0545 *1118 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, *0801 *0801 *0802 *0794 *0794 implacable, unmerciful: *0786 *0415 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are *3748 *1921 *1345 *2316 *4238 *5108 worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do *0514 *2288 *3440 *0846 *4909 *4238 them. 2:1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: *1352 *1488 *0379 *0444 *3588 *1488 *2919 for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that *3757 *2919 *2087 *2632 *4572 judgest doest the same things. *2919 *4238 *0846 2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against *1492 *2917 *2316 *2596 *0225 *1909 them which commit such things. *4238 *5108 3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, *3049 *5124 *0444 *2919 *4238 *5108 and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? *4160 *0846 *1628 *2917 *2316 4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and *2228 *2706 *4149 *5544 *0463 longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to *3115 *0050 *5543 *2316 *0071 repentance? *3341 5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself *2596 *4643 *0279 *2588 *2343 *4572 wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of *3709 *1722 *2250 *3709 *0602 *1341 *1341 God; *2316 6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds: *3739 *0591 *1538 *2596 *2041 7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and *5281 *5281 *0018 *2041 *2212 *1391 honour and immortality, eternal life: *5092 *0861 *0126 *2222 8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey *2052 *0544 *0225 *3982 unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, *0093 *2372 *3709 9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the *2347 *4730 *3956 *5590 *0444 *2556 Jew first, and also of the Gentile; *2453 *4412 *2532 *1672 10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the *1391 *5092 *1515 *3956 *3956 *2038 *0018 Jew first, and also to the Gentile: *2453 *4412 *2532 *1672 11 For there is no respect of persons with God. *3756 *4382 *4382 *2316 12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: *3745 *0264 *0460 *0460 *2532 *0622 *0460 *0460 and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; *3745 *0264 *3551 *2919 *3551 13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of *0202 *3551 *1342 *3844 *2316 *4163 the law shall be justified. *3551 *1344 14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things *3752 *1484 *3588 *2192 *3551 *4160 *5449 contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: *3551 *3778 *2192 *3551 *3551 *1438 15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their *3748 *1731 *2041 *3551 *1123 *2588 conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing *4893 *4828 *4828 *4828 *3053 *3342 *2722 or else excusing one another;) *2228 *2532 *0626 *0240 *0240 16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ *2250 *3753 *2316 *2919 *2927 *0444 *2424 *5547 according to my gospel. *2596 *2098 17 Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy *2396 *2028 *2453 *1879 *3551 *2744 boast of God, *2744 *2316 18 And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, *1097 *2307 *1381 *1308 being instructed out of the law; *2727 *3551 19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of *3982 *4572 *3595 *5185 *5457 them which are in darkness, *4655 20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of *3810 *0878 *1320 *3516 *2192 *3446 knowledge and of the truth in the law. *1108 *0225 *3551 21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou *3767 *3588 *1321 *2087 *1321 *4572 that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? *2784 *2813 *2813 22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit *3004 *3431 *3431 *3431 adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? *3431 *0948 *1497 *2416 *2416 23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law *2744 *2744 *3551 *1223 *3847 *3551 dishonourest thou God? *0818 *2316 24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it *3686 *2316 *0987 *1722 *1484 *1223 is written. *1125 25 For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou *4061 *3303 *5623 *1437 *4238 *3551 *1437 be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. *3848 *3551 *4061 *1096 *0203 26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, *3767 *1437 *0203 *5442 *1345 *3551 shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? *0203 *3049 *4061 27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, *0203 *5449 *5055 *3551 judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? *2919 *3588 *1121 *4061 *3848 *3551 28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that *2453 *5318 *3761 circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: *4061 *5318 *4561 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the *2453 *2927 *4061 heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, *2588 *4151 *1121 *3739 *1868 *0444 but of God. *2316 3:1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of *5101 *4053 *3767 *2453 *2228 *5101 *5622 circumcision? *4061 2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the *4183 *3956 *5158 *4412 *3754 *4100 oracles of God. *3051 *2316 3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith *5101 *1487 *5100 *0569 *0570 *2673 *4102 of God without effect? *2316 *2673 *2673 4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is *1096 *1096 *1161 *2316 *0557 *3956 *0444 *5583 written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest *1125 *1344 *3056 overcome when thou art judged. *3528 *3588 *2919 5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall *1487 *0093 *4921 *1343 *2316 *5101 we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man) *2046 *2316 *0094 *3588 *2018 *3709 *3004 *0444 6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world? *1096 *1096 *4459 *2316 *2919 *2889 7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his *1487 *0225 *2316 *4052 *1722 *5582 glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner? *1391 *5101 *2089 *2504 *2919 *0268 8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that *0987 *0987 *5100 *5346 we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just. *3004 *4160 *2556 *0018 *2064 *3739 *2917 *1738 9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before *5101 *3767 *4284 *3756 *3843 *3843 *4256 proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; *4256 *5037 *2453 *1672 *3956 *5259 *0266 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: *1125 *3756 *1342 *1520 11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. *3756 *4920 *3756 *1567 *1567 *2316 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; *3956 *1578 *0260 *0889 *0889 there is none that doeth good, no, not one. *3756 *4160 *5544 *1520 13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used *2995 *0455 *5028 *1100 *1387 deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: *1387 *2447 *0785 *5259 *5491 14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: *3739 *4750 *1073 *0685 *4088 15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: *4228 *3691 *1632 *0129 16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: *4938 *5004 *3598 17 And the way of peace have they not known: *3598 *1515 *1097 18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. *3756 *5401 *2316 *0561 *3788 19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them *1161 *1492 *3745 *1437 *3551 *3004 *2980 who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world *1722 *3551 *3956 *4750 *5420 *3956 *2889 may become guilty before God. *1096 *5267 *2316 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified *1360 *2041 *3551 *3956 *4561 *1344 in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. *1799 *3551 *1922 *0266 21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being *3568 *1343 *2316 *5565 *3551 *5319 witnessed by the law and the prophets; *3140 *3551 *4396 22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto *1161 *1343 *2316 *4102 *2424 *5547 all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: *3956 *3956 *4100 *3756 *1293 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; *3956 *0264 *5302 *5302 *1391 *2316 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in *1344 *1432 *5485 *1223 *0629 Christ Jesus: *5547 *2424 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his *3739 *2316 *4388 *4388 *2435 *1223 *4102 blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, *0129 *1732 *1343 *3929 *0265 *4266 through the forbearance of God; *1722 *0463 *2316 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be *1732 *1722 *3568 *2540 *1343 just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. *1342 *1344 *4102 *2424 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but *4226 *2746 *3767 *1576 *4169 *3551 *2041 *3780 by the law of faith. *3551 *4102 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the *3767 *3049 *0444 *1344 *4102 *5565 deeds of the law. *2041 *3551 29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of *2316 *2453 *3440 *2532 *1484 *3483 the Gentiles also: *1484 *2532 30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, *1897 *1520 *2316 *3739 *1344 *4061 *4102 and uncircumcision through faith. *0203 *1223 *4102 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we *3767 *2673 *2673 *3551 *1223 *4102 *1096 *1096 *0235 establish the law. *2476 *3551 4:1 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the *5101 *2046 *3767 *0011 *3962 flesh, hath found? *4561 *2147 2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but *1487 *0011 *1344 *2041 *2192 *2745 not before God. *4314 *2316 3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted *5101 *3004 *1124 *0011 *4100 *2316 *3049 unto him for righteousness. *1343 4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. *1161 *2038 *3408 *3049 *5485 *3783 5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the *2038 *4100 *1909 *1344 ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. *0765 *4102 *3049 *1343 6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God *2509 *1138 *2532 *3004 *3108 *0444 *3739 *2316 imputeth righteousness without works, *3049 *1343 *5565 *2041 7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins *3107 *3739 *0458 *0863 *3739 *0266 are covered. *1943 8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. *3107 *0435 *3739 *2962 *3049 *0266 9 Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the *3778 *3108 *3767 *4061 *2228 uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for *0203 *2532 *3004 *4102 *3049 *0011 righteousness. *1343 10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in *4459 *3767 *3049 *4061 *2228 uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. *0203 *4061 *0203 11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of *2983 *4592 *4061 *4973 *1343 the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father *4102 *3588 *0203 *3962 of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that *3956 *4100 *1223 *0203 righteousness might be imputed unto them also: *1343 *3049 *2532 12 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision *3962 *4061 *3588 *4061 only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, *3440 *3588 *2532 *4748 *2487 *4102 *3962 *0011 which he had being yet uncircumcised. *0203 13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to *1860 *2818 *2889 Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness *0011 *2228 *4690 *1223 *3551 *1223 *1343 of faith. *4102 14 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and *1487 *3551 *2818 *4102 *2758 *2758 the promise made of none effect: *1860 *2673 *2673 *2673 15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no *1063 *3551 *2716 *3709 *3757 *3756 *3551 *3761 transgression. *3847 16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the *5124 *4102 *5485 *1519 promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the *1860 *0949 *3956 *4690 *3440 law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father *3551 *2532 *4102 *0011 *3739 *3962 of us all, *3956 17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, ) before *1125 *5087 *3962 *4183 *1484 *2713 him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those *3739 *4100 *2316 *3588 *2227 *3498 *2564 *3588 things which be not as though they were. 18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of *3739 *3844 *1680 *4100 *1680 *1096 *3962 many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. *4183 *1484 *2596 *2046 *3779 *4690 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, *0770 *4102 *2657 *1438 *4983 *2236 *3499 when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's *4225 *1541 *1541 *1541 *3500 *4564 womb: *3388 20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was *1252 *1519 *1860 *2316 *0570 strong in faith, giving glory to God; *1743 *4102 *1391 *2316 21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also *4135 *4135 *3739 *1861 *1415 *2532 to perform. *4160 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. *1352 *3049 *1343 23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; *1161 *1125 *3440 *3049 24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him *2532 *3739 *3049 *4100 *1909 that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; *1453 *2424 *2962 *3498 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our *3739 *3860 *3900 *1453 *1453 justification. *1347 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our *3767 *1344 *4102 *2192 *1515 *2316 *1223 Lord Jesus Christ: *2962 *2424 *5547 2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, *3739 *2532 *2192 *4318 *4102 *1519 *5026 *5485 *3757 *2476 and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. *2744 *1680 *1391 *2316 3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that *3440 *2744 *2347 *2532 *1492 tribulation worketh patience; *2347 *2716 *5281 4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope: *5281 *1382 *1382 *1680 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in *1680 *2617 *2617 *3754 *0026 *2316 *1632 *1632 our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. *2588 *0040 *4151 *3588 *1325 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the *2089 *0772 *0772 *2540 *5547 *0599 ungodly. *0765 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a *3433 *1342 *5100 *0599 *1063 *5029 good man some would even dare to die. *0018 *5100 *5111 *0599 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet *2316 *4921 *0026 *1519 *2089 sinners, Christ died for us. *0268 *5547 *0599 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from *4183 *3123 *3767 *3568 *1344 *0129 *4982 wrath through him. *3709 *1223 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death *1477 *2190 *2644 *2316 *2288 of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. *5207 *4183 *3123 *2644 *4982 *2222 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, *3440 *2532 *2744 *2316 *1223 *2962 *2424 *5547 by whom we have now received the atonement. *3739 *3568 *2983 *2643 12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; *5124 *1520 *0444 *0266 *1525 *1519 *2889 *2288 *0266 and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: *3779 *2288 *1330 *3956 *0444 *3956 *0264 13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when *0891 *3551 *0266 *2889 *0266 *1677 there is no law. *3361 *3551 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had *0235 *2288 *0936 *0076 *3475 *2532 *1909 not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure *0264 *1909 *3667 *0076 *3847 *3739 *5179 of him that was to come. *3195 15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the *3900 *3779 *2532 *5486 *5486 *1477 offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by *3900 *1520 *4183 *0599 *4183 *3123 *5485 *2316 *1431 grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. *5485 *3588 *1520 *2424 *5547 *4052 *4183 16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment *1520 *0264 *1434 *2917 was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto *1520 *2631 *5486 *5486 *4183 *3900 justification. *1345 17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they *1477 *1520 *3900 *2288 *0936 *1520 *4183 *3123 which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall *2983 *4050 *5485 *1431 *1343 reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) *0936 *2222 *1520 *2424 *5547 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to *3767 *3900 *1520 *3956 *0444 condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came *2631 *2532 *3779 *1345 *1520 upon all men unto justification of life. *3956 *0444 *1347 *2222 19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the *1520 *0444 *3876 *4183 *2525 *0268 *3779 obedience of one shall many be made righteous. *5218 *1520 *4183 *2525 *1342 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin *1161 *3551 *3922 *3900 *4121 *3757 *0266 abounded, grace did much more abound: *4121 *5485 *5248 *5248 21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign *0266 *0936 *2288 *2532 *3779 *5485 *0936 through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. *1223 *1343 *0166 *2222 *2424 *5547 *2962 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? *5101 *2046 *3767 *1961 *0266 *5485 *4121 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer *1096 *1096 *4459 *0599 *0266 *2198 *2089 *2089 therein? *0846 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were *0050 *3745 *3745 *0907 *1519 *2424 *5547 baptized into his death? *0907 *1519 *2288 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as *3767 *4916 *0908 *1519 *2288 *5618 Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we *5547 *1453 *3498 *1391 *3962 *3779 also should walk in newness of life. *2532 *4043 *2538 *2222 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we *1477 *4854 *4854 *3667 *2288 shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: *2532 *0386 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of *1097 *5124 *3820 *0444 *4957 *4983 sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. *0266 *2673 *3371 *1398 *0266 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. *0599 *1344 *0266 8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with *1161 *1477 *0599 *5547 *4100 *2532 *4800 him: 9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death *1492 *5547 *1453 *3498 *0599 *3765 *2089 *2288 hath no more dominion over him. *3765 *3765 *2961 10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he *0599 *0599 *0266 *2178 *2198 liveth unto God. *2198 *2316 11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive *3779 *3049 *2532 *1438 *3498 *3303 *0266 *2198 unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. *2316 *1722 *2424 *5547 *2962 12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it *0266 *3767 *0936 *5216 *2349 *4983 *5219 in the lusts thereof. *1939 *0846 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: *3366 *3936 *5216 *3196 *3696 *0093 *0266 but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and *3936 *1438 *2316 *2198 *3498 your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. *5216 *3196 *3696 *1343 *2316 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, *0266 *2961 *5259 *3551 but under grace. *5259 *5485 15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under *5101 *3767 *0264 *3754 *5259 *3551 *5259 grace? God forbid. *5485 *1096 *1096 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his *1492 *3739 *3936 *1438 *1401 *5218 servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of *1401 *3739 *5219 *2273 *0266 *2288 *2228 obedience unto righteousness? *5218 *1343 17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have *2316 *5485 *1401 *0266 obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. *5219 *2588 *5179 *1322 *3739 *3860 18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. *1161 *1659 *1659 *0266 *1402 *1402 *1343 19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: *3004 *0442 *0442 *1223 *0769 *5216 *4561 for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity *3936 *5216 *3196 *1401 *0167 *0458 unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness *0458 *3779 *3779 *3568 *3936 *5216 *3196 *1401 *1343 unto holiness. *0038 20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. *3753 *1401 *0266 *1658 *1343 21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for *5101 *2590 *2192 *3767 *3739 *3568 *1870 the end of those things is death. *5056 *1565 *2288 22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have *3570 *1659 *1659 *0266 *1402 *1402 *2316 *2192 your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. *5216 *2590 *0038 *5056 *0166 *2222 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life *3800 *0266 *2288 *5486 *2316 *0166 *2222 through Jesus Christ our Lord. *1722 *2424 *5547 *2962 7:1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that *0050 *0080 *2980 *1097 *3551 the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? *3551 *2961 *0444 *5550 *2198 2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband *1135 *5220 *5220 *1210 *3551 *0435 so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the *2198 *1437 *0435 *0599 *2673 law of her husband. *3551 *0435 3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, *0686 *0686 *1437 *0435 *2198 *1096 *2087 *0435 she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is *5537 *3428 *1437 *0435 *0599 free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married *1658 *3551 *3361 *3428 *1096 to another man. *2087 *0435 4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body *5620 *0080 *2532 *2289 *2289 *3551 *4983 of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised *5547 *1096 *2087 *1453 from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. *3498 *2592 *2592 *2316 5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, *3753 *4561 *3804 *0266 *3588 *3551 did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. *1754 *3196 *2592 *2592 *2288 6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were *3570 *2673 *3551 *0599 *3757 held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of *2722 *1398 *2538 *4151 *3821 the letter. *1121 7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not *5101 *2046 *3767 *3551 *0266 *1096 *1096 *0235 known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had *1097 *0266 *3551 *1492 *1939 *1508 *3551 said, Thou shalt not covet. *3004 *1937 8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of *0266 *2983 *0874 *1785 *2716 *3956 concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. *1939 *5565 *3551 *0266 *3498 9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin *2198 *5565 *3551 *4218 *1785 *2064 *0266 revived, and I died. *0326 *0599 10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto *1785 *3588 *2222 *2147 death. *2288 11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew *0266 *2983 *0874 *1785 *1818 *0615 me. 12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. *5620 *3551 *0040 *1785 *0040 *1342 *0018 13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, *3767 *0018 *1096 *2288 *1096 *1096 *0266 that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that *5316 *0266 *2716 *2288 *0018 sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. *0266 *1785 *1096 *5236 *0268 14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under *1492 *3551 *4152 *1510 *4559 *4097 *5259 sin. *0266 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; *3739 *2716 *1097 *3739 *2309 *4238 but what I hate, that do I. *3739 *3404 *4160 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it *1487 *1161 *4160 *3739 *2309 *4852 *3551 is good. *2570 17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. *3570 *1161 *3765 *2089 *2716 *0266 *3611 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: *1492 *4561 *3611 *3756 *0018 for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I *2309 *3873 *2716 *2570 find not. *2147 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, *0018 *2309 *4160 *2556 *3739 *2309 that I do. *4238 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but *1161 *1487 *4160 *2309 *3765 *2089 *2716 sin that dwelleth in me. *0266 *3611 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. *2147 *0686 *3551 *2309 *4160 *2570 *2556 *3873 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: *4913 *3551 *2316 *2596 *2080 *0444 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my *0991 *2087 *3551 *3196 *0497 *0497 *3551 mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my *3563 *0163 *0163 *3551 *0266 *3588 members. *3196 24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this *5005 *0444 *5101 *4506 *4983 *5127 death? *2288 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I *2168 *2316 *1223 *2424 *5547 *2962 *0686 *0686 *3563 myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. *1398 *3551 *2316 *4561 *3551 *0266 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ *0686 *3568 *3762 *2631 *5547 Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. *2424 *4043 *2596 *4561 *2596 *4151 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from *3551 *4151 *2222 *5547 *2424 *1659 *1659 the law of sin and death. *3551 *0266 *2288 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, *3588 *3551 *0102 *0770 *1223 *4561 God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, *2316 *3992 *1438 *5207 *3667 *0266 *4561 *0266 condemned sin in the flesh: *2632 *0266 *4561 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not *1345 *3551 *4137 *4043 after the flesh, but after the Spirit. *2596 *4561 *2596 *4151 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but *2596 *4561 *5426 *4561 they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. *2596 *4151 *4151 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life *4561 *5427 *2288 *4151 *5427 *2222 and peace. *1515 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to *1360 *4561 *5427 *2189 *1519 *2316 *5293 the law of God, neither indeed can be. *3551 *2316 *3761 *1063 *1410 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. *1161 *4561 *1410 *0700 *2316 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the *4561 *4151 *1512 Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of *4151 *2316 *3611 *1161 *1487 *5100 *2192 *4151 Christ, he is none of his. *5547 *3756 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the *1487 *5547 *4983 *3498 *1223 *0266 Spirit is life because of righteousness. *4151 *2222 *1223 *1343 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in *1437 *4151 *1453 *2424 *3498 *3611 you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal *1453 *5547 *3498 *2532 *2227 *5216 *2349 bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. *4983 *4151 *1774 12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the *3767 *0080 *3781 *4561 *2198 *2596 flesh. *4561 13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the *1437 *2198 *2596 *4561 *0599 *1487 Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. *4151 *2289 *4234 *4983 *2198 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. *3745 *0071 *4151 *2316 *5207 *2316 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye *2983 *4151 *1397 *3825 *5401 have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. *2983 *4151 *5206 *3739 *2896 *0005 *3962 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the *4151 *0846 *4828 *4828 *4151 children of God: *5043 *2316 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; *1487 *5043 *2535 *2818 *2818 *2316 *4789 *5547 if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. *1512 *4841 *2532 *4888 *4888 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to *3049 *3804 *3588 *3568 *2540 *0514 be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. *1391 *0601 19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the *0603 *0603 *2937 *0553 manifestation of the sons of God. *0602 *5207 *2316 20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by *2937 *5293 *5293 *3153 *1635 reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, *1223 *5293 *1680 21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of *3754 *2937 *0846 *2532 *1659 *1397 corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. *5356 *1519 *1391 *1657 *5043 *2316 22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain *1492 *3956 *2937 *4959 *4944 together until now. *4944 *0891 *3568 23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the *3440 *2532 *2192 *0536 Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, *4151 *2532 *4727 *1722 *1438 *0553 *5206 to wit, the redemption of our body. *0629 *4983 24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a *4982 *1680 *1680 *0991 *1680 man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? *5100 *0991 *5101 *1679 25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for *1487 *1679 *0991 *5281 *0553 it. 26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what *5615 *4151 *2532 *4878 *0769 *1492 *5101 we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession *4336 *1163 *4151 *0846 *5241 *5241 for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. *4726 *0215 *0215 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, *2045 *2588 *1492 *5101 *5427 *4151 because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. *3754 *1793 *1793 *0040 *2596 *2316 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love *1492 *3956 *4903 *4903 *0018 *0025 God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. *2316 *2822 *2596 *4286 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to *3739 *4267 *2532 *4309 *4832 the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. *1504 *5207 *4416 *1722 *4183 *0080 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he *1161 *3739 *4309 *2532 *2564 *3739 called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also *2564 *2532 *1344 *3739 *1344 *2532 glorified. *1392 31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can *5101 *3767 *2046 *5023 *1487 *2316 *5101 be against us? *2596 32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how *5339 *2398 *5207 *3860 *3956 *4459 shall he not with him also freely give us all things? *2532 *5483 *3956 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that *5101 *1458 *2596 *2316 *1588 *2316 justifieth. *1344 34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is *5101 *2632 *5547 *0599 *1161 *3123 risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh *1453 *1453 *3739 *2532 *1722 *1188 *2316 *3739 *2532 *1793 intercession for us. *1793 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or *5101 *5562 *0026 *5547 *2347 *2228 distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or *4730 *2228 *1375 *2228 *3042 *2228 *1132 *2228 *2794 *2228 sword? *3162 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are *1125 *1752 *2289 *3650 *2250 accounted as sheep for the slaughter. *3049 *4263 *4967 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that *0235 *3956 *5125 *5245 *5245 *5245 *1223 loved us. *0025 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor *3982 *3777 *2288 *3777 *2222 *3777 *0032 *3777 principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, *0746 *3777 *1411 *3777 *1764 *3777 *3195 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to *3777 *5313 *3777 *0899 *3777 *5100 *2087 *2937 *1410 separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. *5562 *0026 *2316 *3588 *5547 *2424 *2962 9:1 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me *3004 *0225 *5547 *5574 *4893 *4828 *4828 witness in the Holy Ghost, *4828 *0040 *4151 2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. *2076 *3173 *3077 *0088 *3601 *2588 3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, *2172 *0846 *0331 *5547 *0080 my kinsmen according to the flesh: *4773 *2596 *4561 4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and *3748 *2475 *3739 *5206 *1391 the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the *1242 *3548 *3548 *2999 promises; *1860 5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, *3739 *3962 *3739 *2596 *4561 *5547 who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. *3588 *1909 *3956 *2316 *2128 *0165 *0281 6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not *3754 *3056 *2316 *1601 *1601 all Israel, which are of Israel: *3956 *2474 *3588 *2474 7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: *3761 *3754 *4690 *0011 *3956 *5043 but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. *2464 *4690 *2564 8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the *5043 *4561 *5023 children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. *5043 *2316 *5043 *1860 *3049 *4690 9 For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah *3778 *3056 *1860 *2596 *5126 *2540 *2064 *4564 shall have a son. *2071 *5207 10 And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by *3440 *4479 *2532 *2192 *1520 our father Isaac; *3962 *2464 11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or *3380 *1080 *3366 *4238 *5100 *0018 *2228 evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of *2556 *4286 *2316 *2596 *1589 *3306 works, but of him that calleth;) *2041 *2564 12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. *4483 *3187 *1398 *1640 13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. *1125 *2384 *0025 *2269 *3404 14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. *5101 *2046 *3767 *0093 *2316 *1096 *1096 15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and *3004 *3475 *1653 *3739 *1653 I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. *3627 *3739 *3627 16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but *0686 *0686 *2309 *3761 *5143 of God that sheweth mercy. *2316 *1653 *1653 17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I *1124 *3004 *5328 *5124 *0846 raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might *1825 *1731 *1411 *3686 be declared throughout all the earth. *1229 *1722 *3956 *1093 18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he *3767 *1653 *3739 *2309 *3739 *2309 hardeneth. *4645 19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath *2046 *3767 *5101 *2089 *3201 *5101 resisted his will? *0436 *1013 20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the *3304 *0444 *5101 *1488 *0470 *0470 *2316 thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? *4110 *4110 *2046 *4110 *5101 *4160 *3779 21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one *2192 *2763 *1849 *4081 *0846 *5445 *4160 vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? *4632 *5092 *3739 *0819 22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, *1487 *2316 *2309 *1731 *3709 *1107 *1415 *1107 endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: *5342 *4183 *3115 *4632 *3709 *2675 *0684 23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of *1107 *1107 *4149 *1391 *1909 *4632 mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, *1656 *3739 *4282 *4282 *1391 24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the *2532 *3739 *2564 *2453 *3440 *2532 Gentiles? *1484 25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my *3004 *2532 *5617 *2564 *2992 people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. *2992 *0025 *0025 26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, *1511 *5117 *3757 *4483 Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living *2992 *1563 *2564 *5207 *2198 God. *2316 27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children *2268 *1161 *2896 *5228 *2474 *1437 *0706 *5207 of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: *2474 *0285 *2281 *2640 *4982 28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because *4931 *3056 *4932 *4932 *1343 *3754 a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. *4932 *3056 *2962 *4160 *1093 29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, *2268 *4280 *4280 *1508 *2962 *4519 *1459 *4690 we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha. *1096 *4670 *3666 *3666 *1116 30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after *5101 *2046 *3767 *1484 *3588 *1377 righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which *1343 *2638 *1343 *1161 *1343 *3588 is of faith. *4102 31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not *2474 *1377 *3551 *1343 attained to the law of righteousness. *5348 *3551 *1343 32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the *1302 *3754 *2212 *4102 works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; *2041 *3551 *4350 *4348 33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of *1125 *2400 *5087 *4622 *4348 *4073 offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. *4625 *3588 *4100 *1909 *2617 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they *0080 *2588 *2107 *1162 *2316 *2474 might be saved. *4991 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to *3140 *3140 *2192 *2205 *2316 *2596 knowledge. *1922 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to *0050 *2316 *1343 *2212 *2212 establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the *2476 *2398 *1343 *5293 righteousness of God. *1343 *2316 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that *5547 *5056 *3551 *1343 *3956 *3956 believeth. *4100 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man *3475 *1125 *1343 *3588 *3551 *0444 which doeth those things shall live by them. *4160 *0846 *2198 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not *1343 *4102 *3004 *3779 *3779 *2036 in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ *4675 *2588 *5101 *0305 *1519 *3772 *2609 *5547 down from above:) *2609 7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again *2228 *5101 *2597 *1519 *0012 *0321 *5547 *0321 from the dead.) *3498 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy *5101 *3004 *4487 *1451 *4750 heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; *2588 *4487 *4102 *3739 *2784 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt *1437 *3670 *4750 *2962 *2424 believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt *4100 *4675 *2588 *2316 *1453 *3498 be saved. *4982 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth *2588 *4100 *1343 *4750 confession is made unto salvation. *3670 *3670 *4991 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be *1124 *3004 *3588 *4100 *1909 ashamed. *2617 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the *3756 *1293 *2453 *1672 same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. *0846 *2962 *3956 *4147 *3956 *1941 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. *0302 *1941 *3686 *2962 *4982 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and *4459 *3767 *1941 *1941 *3739 *4100 how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall *4459 *4100 *3739 *0191 *4459 they hear without a preacher? *0191 *5565 *2784 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How *5613 *2784 *3362 *0649 *1125 beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring *5611 *4228 *2097 *2097 *1515 *2097 glad tidings of good things! *2097 *2097 *0018 *0018 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who *3956 *5219 *2098 *2268 *3004 *2962 *5101 hath believed our report? *4100 *0189 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. *0686 *0686 *4102 *0189 *0189 *4487 *2316 18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all *3004 *0191 *3304 *3304 *5353 *1831 *1519 *3956 the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. *1093 *4487 *4009 *3625 19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to *3004 *2474 *1097 *4413 *3475 *3004 *3863 jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger *3756 *1484 *0801 *1484 *3949 you. 20 But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me *2268 *0662 *0662 *3004 *2147 *2212 not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. *1096 *1717 *1905 *1905 21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands *2474 *3004 *3650 *2250 *1600 *1600 *5495 unto a disobedient and gainsaying people. *0544 *0483 *2992 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am *2046 *3767 *2316 *0683 *0683 *2992 *1096 *1096 *2532 *1510 an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. *2475 *4690 *0011 *5443 *0958 2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what *2316 *0683 *0683 *2992 *3739 *4267 *1492 *5101 the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against *1124 *3004 *2243 *5613 *1793 *1793 *2316 *2596 Israel saying, *2474 *3004 3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I *2962 *0615 *4396 *2679 *2679 *4675 *2379 am left alone, and they seek my life. *5275 *3441 *2212 *5590 4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself *5101 *3004 *5538 *2641 *1683 seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. *2035 *2035 *0435 *3748 *2578 *1119 *0896 5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according *2532 *3779 *3767 *1722 *3588 *3568 *2540 *2532 *3005 *2596 to the election of grace. *1589 *5485 6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no *1487 *5485 *3765 *2089 *2041 *1893 *5485 *3765 more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise *2089 *5485 *1487 *2041 *3765 *2089 *5485 *1893 work is no more work. *2041 *3765 *2089 *2041 7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the *5101 *3767 *2474 *2013 *3739 *1934 election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded. *1589 *2013 *3062 *4456 8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, *2531 *1125 *2316 *1325 *4151 *2659 eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto *3788 *0991 *3775 *0191 this day. *4594 *2250 9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a *1138 *3004 *5132 *1096 *3803 *2339 stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them: *4625 *0468 10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their *3788 *4654 *0991 *4781 *4781 back alway. *3577 *1275 11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but *2046 *3767 *4417 *4098 *1096 *1096 rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to *3900 *4991 *1484 provoke them to jealousy. *3863 12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the *1161 *1487 *3900 *4149 *2889 diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their *2275 *4149 *1484 *4214 *4124 *3123 fulness? *4138 13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the *3004 *1484 *3745 *1510 *0652 Gentiles, I magnify mine office: *1484 *1392 *3450 *1248 14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, *1513 *4458 *4458 *3863 *3863 *4561 and might save some of them. *4982 *5100 15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what *1487 *0580 *0580 *2643 *2889 *5101 shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? *4356 *2222 *3498 16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the *1487 *0536 *0040 *5445 *2532 *0040 *1487 root be holy, so are the branches. *4491 *0040 *2532 *2798 17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild *1487 *5100 *2798 *1575 *1575 *5607 *0065 olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root *0065 *0065 *1461 *1722 *4791 *4491 and fatness of the olive tree; *4096 *1636 18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not *2620 *2620 *2798 *1487 *0941 the root, but the root thee. *4491 *4491 19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be *2046 *3767 *2798 *1575 *1575 graffed in. *1461 20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by *2573 *0570 *1575 *1575 *2476 faith. Be not highminded, but fear: *4102 *5309 *5399 21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also *1487 *2316 *5339 *5449 *2798 *3381 *3761 spare not thee. *5339 22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, *1492 *3767 *5544 *0663 *2316 *1909 *4098 severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: *0663 *1909 *5544 *1437 *1961 *5544 otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. *1893 *2532 *1581 *1581 23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed *1161 *1437 *1961 *0570 *1461 in: for God is able to graff them in again. *2316 *1415 *1461 *3825 24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, *1487 *1581 *0065 *0065 *0065 *5449 and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more *1461 *3844 *5449 *1519 *2565 *2565 *2565 *4214 *4124 *3123 shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive *3778 *5449 *1461 *2398 *1636 tree? 25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, *2309 *0080 *0050 *5124 *3466 lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is *3361 *5429 *1438 *1438 *1433 *4457 *3313 happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. *1096 *2474 *0891 *4138 *1484 *1525 26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come *3779 *3956 *2474 *4982 *1125 *2240 out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: *4622 *4506 *0654 *0654 *0763 *2384 27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. *3778 *1242 *3752 *0851 *0851 *0266 28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as *2596 *2098 *2190 *5209 touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. *2596 *1589 *0027 *3962 29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. *5486 *2821 *2316 *0278 *0278 30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained *4218 *0544 *2316 *3568 *1653 mercy through their unbelief: *1653 *0543 31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy *3779 *3778 *2532 *3568 *0544 *5212 *1656 they also may obtain mercy. *2532 *1653 *1653 32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy *2316 *4788 *3956 *0543 *1653 upon all. *3956 33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how *0899 *4149 *2532 *4678 *1108 *2316 *5613 unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! *0419 *2917 *3598 *0421 *0421 34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his *5101 *1097 *3563 *2962 *2228 *5101 *1096 counsellor? *4825 35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him *2228 *5101 *4272 *4272 *0467 again? *0467 36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be *1223 *3956 *0846 glory for ever. Amen. *1391 *0165 *0281 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye *3870 *3767 *0080 *3628 *2316 present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is *3936 *5216 *4983 *2198 *2378 *0040 *2101 *2316 your reasonable service. *5216 *3050 *2999 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing *4964 *5129 *0165 *3339 *0342 of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and *5216 *3563 *1381 *5101 *0018 *2101 perfect, will of God. *5046 *2307 *2316 3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among *3004 *1223 *5485 *1325 *3956 *1722 you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to *5252 *3844 *5252 *1163 *5426 think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of *5426 *4993 *2316 *3307 *1538 *3358 faith. *4102 4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the *2192 *4183 *3196 *1520 *4983 *3956 *3196 *2192 same office: *0846 *4234 5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one *3779 *4183 *1520 *4983 *5547 *2596 *1520 *3196 *0240 of another. *0240 6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, *2192 *1161 *5486 *1313 *2596 *5485 *1325 whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; *1535 *4394 *2596 *0356 *4102 7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, *1535 *1248 *1722 *1248 *1535 *1321 on teaching; *1722 *1319 8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it *1535 *3870 *1722 *3874 *3330 with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, *0572 *4291 *4710 *1653 *1653 with cheerfulness. *2432 9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to *0026 *0505 *0505 *0655 *4190 *2853 that which is good. *0018 10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour *5387 *5387 *0240 *0240 *5360 *5360 *5092 preferring one another; *4285 *0240 *0240 11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; *3636 *4710 *2204 *4151 *1398 *2962 12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; *5463 *1680 *5278 *2347 *4342 *4342 *4335 13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. *2841 *5532 *0040 *1377 *5381 14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. *2127 *1377 *2127 *2672 15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. *5463 *5463 *2799 *2799 16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but *0846 *5426 *0240 *1519 *0240 *5426 *5308 condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. *4879 *5011 *5429 *5216 *1438 *1433 17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the *0591 *3367 *3367 *2556 *2556 *4306 *2570 sight of all men. *1799 *3956 *0444 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all *1487 *1415 *3588 *1514 *1518 *3956 men. *0444 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: *0027 *1556 *1438 *1325 *5117 *3709 for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. *1125 *1557 *1698 *0467 *3004 *2962 20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him *3767 *1437 *4675 *2190 *3983 *5595 *1437 *1372 *4222 drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. *4222 *5124 *4160 *4987 *0440 *4442 *1909 *2776 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. *3528 *2556 *3528 *2556 *0018 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power *3956 *5590 *5293 *5242 *1849 *3756 *1849 but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. *2316 *1849 *5021 *2316 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: *3588 *5620 *0498 *1849 *0436 *1296 *2316 and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. *0436 *2983 *1438 *2917 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou *0758 *5401 *0018 *2041 *2556 *2309 then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt *1161 *5399 *1849 *4160 *0018 have praise of the same: *2192 *1868 *0846 4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that *1249 *2316 *0018 *1437 *4160 which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is *2556 *5399 *5409 *3162 *1500 the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. *1249 *2316 *1558 *3709 *4238 *2556 5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for *1352 *0318 *5293 *3440 *3709 *2532 conscience sake. *4893 6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, *5124 *1223 *5055 *5411 *2532 *2316 *3011 attending continually upon this very thing. *4342 *4342 *5124 *0846 7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; *0591 *3767 *3956 *3782 *5411 *3588 *5411 custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. *5056 *3588 *5056 *5401 *3588 *5401 *5092 *3588 *5092 8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth *3784 *3367 *3367 *3367 *0025 *0240 *0240 *0025 another hath fulfilled the law. *2087 *4137 *3551 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt *3588 *3431 *3431 *5407 not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if *2813 *5576 *5576 *5576 *1937 *1487 there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, *1536 *2087 *1785 *0346 *0346 *5129 *3056 namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. *1722 *0025 *4139 *1438 10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the *0026 *2038 *3756 *2556 *4139 *3767 *0026 fulfilling of the law. *4138 *3551 11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of *1492 *2540 *2236 *5610 *1453 sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. *5258 *3568 *4991 *1452 *2228 *3753 *4100 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off *3571 *4298 *2250 *1448 *1448 *3767 *0656 *0659 the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. *2041 *4655 *1746 *1746 *3696 *5457 13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not *4043 *2156 *2250 *2970 *3178 in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. *2845 *0766 *2054 *2205 14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the *1746 *1746 *2962 *2424 *5547 *4160 *4307 flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. *4561 *1939 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful *0770 *4102 *4355 *1261 disputations. *1253 2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, *3739 *4100 *5315 *3956 *3739 *3588 *0770 eateth herbs. *2068 *3001 3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him *2068 *1848 *2068 which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. *2068 *2919 *2068 *2316 *4355 4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he *5101 *1488 *2919 *0245 *0245 *3610 *2398 *2962 standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make *4739 *2228 *4098 *0235 *2316 *1415 *2476 him stand. *2476 5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day *3303 *2919 *2250 *3844 *3739 *2919 *3956 *2250 alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. *1538 *4135 *4135 *2398 *3563 6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that *5426 *2250 *5426 *2962 regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, *5426 *2250 *2962 *5426 *2068 eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to *2068 *2962 *2316 *2168 *2068 the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks. *2962 *2068 *2316 *2168 7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. *3762 *2198 *1438 *3762 *3762 *0599 *1438 8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die *5037 *2198 *2198 *2962 *5037 *0599 *0599 unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. *2962 *5037 *2198 *3767 *5037 *0599 *2962 9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be *5124 *5547 *2532 *0599 *0450 *0326 Lord both of the dead and living. *2961 *2532 *3498 *2198 10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought *5101 *2919 *0080 *2228 *5101 *1848 *1848 *1848 thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. *0080 *3956 *3936 *3936 *0968 *0968 *5547 11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to *1125 *2198 *3004 *2962 *3956 *1119 *2578 me, and every tongue shall confess to God. *3956 *1100 *1843 *2316 12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. *0686 *0686 *1538 *1325 *3056 *1438 *2316 13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, *3767 *2919 *0240 *0240 *3370 *2001 *2919 *5124 *3123 that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his *3361 *5087 *4348 *2228 *4625 *4625 brother's way. *0080 14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing *1492 *3982 *2962 *2424 *3762 unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to *2839 *1438 *3049 *5100 *2839 him it is unclean. *2839 15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not *1487 *0080 *3076 *1033 *3765 *4043 charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died. *0026 *0622 *1033 *3739 *5547 *0599 16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of: *3767 *5216 *0018 *0987 17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and *0932 *2316 *1035 *4213 *1343 peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. *1515 *5479 *0040 *4151 18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and *5125 *1398 *5547 *2101 *2316 approved of men. *1384 *0444 19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and *3767 *1377 *1377 *3753 *1515 things wherewith one may edify another. *0240 *3619 *0240 20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but *1033 *2647 *2041 *2316 *3956 *3303 *2513 it is evil for that man who eateth with offence. *2556 *0444 *3588 *2068 *4348 21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing *2570 *3361 *5315 *2907 *3366 *4095 *3631 *3366 *3362 whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak. *3739 *0080 *4350 *2228 *4624 *2228 *0770 *0770 22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that *2192 *4102 *2192 *4572 *1799 *2316 *3107 condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth. *4314 *1438 *3739 *1381 23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of *1252 *2632 *1437 *5315 *3754 *2068 faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin. *4102 *3956 *4102 *0266 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and *1161 *1415 *3784 *0941 *0771 *0102 not to please ourselves. *0700 *1438 2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification. *1538 *0700 *4139 *0018 *3619 3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The *2532 *5547 *0700 *1438 *1125 reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me. *3679 *3679 *1968 *1909 4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our *3745 *4270 *4270 *4270 learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have *1319 *1223 *5281 *3874 *1124 *2192 hope. *1680 5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one *1161 *2316 *5281 *3874 *1325 *5426 *0240 toward another according to Christ Jesus: *1722 *0240 *2596 *5547 *2424 6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of *3661 *3661 *1520 *4750 *1392 *2316 *2532 *3962 our Lord Jesus Christ. *2962 *2424 *5547 7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the *1352 *4355 *0240 *0240 *5547 *2532 *4355 glory of God. *1391 *2316 8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the *1160 *3004 *2424 *5547 *1249 *4061 truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers: *0225 *2316 *0950 *1860 *3962 9 And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, *1484 *1392 *2316 *1656 *1125 For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy *5124 *1223 *1843 *1722 *1484 *5567 name. *3686 10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. *3825 *3004 *2165 *1484 *2992 11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye *3825 *0134 *2962 *3956 *1484 *1867 *3956 people. *2992 12 And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that *3825 *2268 *3004 *4491 *2421 shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust. *0450 *0575 *1484 *1484 *1679 13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, *1161 *2316 *1680 *4137 *3956 *5479 *1515 *4100 that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. *4052 *1680 *1722 *1411 *0040 *4151 14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are *2532 *3982 *0080 *2532 full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one *3324 *0019 *4137 *3956 *1108 *1410 *2532 *3560 *0240 another. *0240 15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some *1161 *0080 *1125 *5112 *5112 *3313 sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of *3313 *1878 *1878 *1223 *5485 *1325 God, *2316 16 That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, *3011 *2424 *5547 *1484 ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might *2418 *2098 *2316 *4376 *1484 be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost. *2144 *0037 *0040 *4151 17 I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those *2192 *3767 *2746 *1722 *2424 *5547 *3588 things which pertain to God. *2316 18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath *5111 *2980 *5100 *3739 *5547 not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed, *2716 *1519 *1484 *5218 *3056 *2041 19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so *1722 *1411 *4591 *5059 *1411 *4151 *2316 *5620 that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached *2419 *2943 *2945 *2437 *4137 *4137 the gospel of Christ. *2098 *5547 20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was *0235 *3779 *5389 *2097 *2097 *3699 *5547 named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation: *3687 *3361 *3618 *0245 *0245 *2310 21 But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and *1125 *3739 *0312 *3700 they that have not heard shall understand. *0191 *4920 22 For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you. *1352 *1352 *2532 *5248 *1465 *2064 23 But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great *3570 *2192 *3370 *2001 *5117 *5125 *2825 *2192 *1974 desire these many years to come unto you; *1974 *4183 *2094 *2064 24 Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust *1437 *4198 *1519 *4681 *2064 *1679 to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, *2300 *1279 *4311 *4311 *1563 if first I be somewhat filled with your company. *1437 *4412 *3313 *1705 *5216 25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints. *3570 *4198 *2419 *1247 *0040 26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain *2106 *3109 *0882 *4160 *5100 contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. *2842 *4434 *0040 *3588 *1722 *2419 27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the *2106 *1063 *3781 *1487 Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is *1484 *2841 *2841 *4152 *3784 also to minister unto them in carnal things. *2532 *3008 *4559 28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, *3767 *2005 *5124 *4972 *5126 *2590 I will come by you into Spain. *0565 *1519 *4681 29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of *1492 *2064 *2064 *4138 the blessing of the gospel of Christ. *2129 *2098 *5547 30 Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for *1161 *3870 *0080 *2962 *2424 *5547 the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to *0026 *4151 *4865 *4865 *3588 *4335 God for me; *2316 31 That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judaea; and *4506 *0544 *2449 that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints; *1248 *3588 *2419 *2144 *0040 32 That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you *2064 *5479 *2307 *2316 be refreshed. *4875 33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen. *1161 *2316 *1515 *3956 *0281 16:1 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church *4921 *5402 *0079 *1249 *1577 which is at Cenchrea: *3588 *1722 *2747 2 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist *4327 *2962 *0516 *0040 *3936 her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a *0302 *4229 *5535 *1096 succourer of many, and of myself also. *4368 *4183 *0846 *2532 3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus: *0782 *4252 *0207 *4904 *5547 *2424 4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I *3748 *5590 *5294 *5294 *1438 *5137 *3739 *3441 give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles. *2168 *2532 *3956 *1577 *1484 5 Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my wellbeloved *2532 *1577 *3624 *0782 *0027 Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ. *1866 *3739 *0536 *0882 *5547 6 Greet Mary, who bestowed much labour on us. *0782 *3137 *3748 *2872 *4183 *2872 *1519 7 Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are *0782 *0408 *2458 *4773 *4869 *3748 of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me. *1978 *1722 *0652 *3739 *2532 *5547 *4253 8 Greet Amplias my beloved in the Lord. *0782 *0291 *0027 *2962 9 Salute Urbane, our helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved. *0782 *3773 *4904 *5547 *4720 *0027 10 Salute Apelles approved in Christ. Salute them which are of Aristobulus' *0782 *0559 *1384 *5547 *0782 *0711 household. 11 Salute Herodion my kinsman. Greet them that be of the household of *0782 *2267 *4773 *0782 Narcissus, which are in the Lord. *3488 *3588 *2962 12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the *0782 *5170 *5173 *3588 *2872 *2962 *0782 beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord. *0027 *4069 *3748 *2872 *4183 *2962 13 Salute Rufus chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine. *0782 *4504 *1588 *2962 *3384 *1700 14 Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren *0782 *0799 *5393 *2057 *3969 *2060 *0080 which are with them. 15 Salute Philologus, and Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and *0782 *5378 *2456 *3517 *0079 *3652 all the saints which are with them. *3956 *0040 16 Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you. *0782 *0240 *0240 *0040 *5370 *1577 *5547 *0782 17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and *1161 *3870 *0080 *4648 *4160 *1370 offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. *4625 *3844 *1322 *3739 *3129 *1578 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own *5108 *1398 *2962 *2424 *5547 *1438 belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. *2836 *5542 *5542 *2129 *2129 *1818 *2588 *0172 19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on *5216 *5218 *0864 *0864 *3956 *5463 *3767 *1909 your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and *5213 *1909 *1161 *2309 *4680 *0018 simple concerning evil. *0185 *1519 *2556 20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The *2316 *1515 *4937 *4567 *5259 *5216 *4228 *5034 grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. *5485 *2962 *2424 *5547 *0281 21 Timotheus my workfellow, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater, my *5095 *4904 *3066 *2394 *4989 kinsmen, salute you. *4773 *0782 22 I Tertius, who wrote this epistle, salute you in the Lord. *5060 *3588 *1125 *3588 *1992 *0782 *2962 23 Gaius mine host, and of the whole church, saluteth you. Erastus the *1050 *3450 *3581 *3650 *1577 *0782 *2037 chamberlain of the city saluteth you, and Quartus a brother. *3623 *4172 *0782 *2890 *0080 24 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. *5485 *2962 *2424 *5547 *3956 *0281 25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and *1161 *1410 *4741 *2596 *2098 the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, *2782 *2424 *5547 *2596 *0602 *3466 which was kept secret since the world began, *4601 *0166 26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, *3568 *5319 *5319 *1124 *4397 according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all *2596 *2003 *0166 *2316 *1107 *1107 *3956 nations for the obedience of faith: *1484 *5218 *4102 27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen. *2316 *3441 *4680 *1391 *1223 *2424 *5547 *0165 *0281 ~~~~~~
