Paul,G3972 a servantG1401 of JesusG2424 Christ,G5547 calledG2822 to be an apostle,G652 separatedG873 to the gospelG2098 of God,G2316
2
(WhichG3739 he had promisedG4279 beforeG4279 by his prophetsG4396 in the holyG40 scriptures,G1124)
3
ConcerningG4012 his SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 our Lord,G2962 whichG3588 was madeG1096 of the seedG4690 of DavidG1138 accordingG2596 to the flesh;G4561
4
And declaredG3724 to be the SonG5207 of GodG2316 with power,G1411 accordingG2596 to the spiritG4151 of holiness,G42 by the resurrectionG386 from the dead:G3498
5
By whomG3739 we have receivedG2983 graceG5485 and apostleship,G651 for obedienceG5218 to the faithG4102 amongG1722 allG3956 nations,G1484 for his name:G3686
6
AmongG1722 whomG3739 are you alsoG2532 the calledG2822 of JesusG2424 Christ:G5547
7
To allG3956 that be in Rome,G4516 belovedG27 of God,G2316 calledG2822 to be saints:G40 GraceG5485 to you and peaceG1515 from GodG2316 our Father,G3962 and the LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ.G5547
8
First,G4412 I thankG2168 my GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 for you all,G3956 that yourG5216 faithG4102 is spokenG2605 of throughoutG1722 the wholeG3650 world.G2889
9
For GodG2316 is my witness,G3144 whomG3739 I serveG3000 with my spiritG4151 in the gospelG2098 of his Son,G5207 that withoutG89 ceasingG89 I makeG4160 mentionG3417 of you alwaysG3842 in my prayers;G4335
10
MakingG1189 request,G1189 ifG1513 by anyG4458 meansG4458 nowG2235 atG4218 lengthG4218 I might have a prosperousG2137 journeyG2137 by the willG2307 of GodG2316 to comeG2064 to you.
11
For I longG1971 to seeG1492 you, that I may impartG3330 to you someG5100 spiritualG4152 gift,G5486 to the endG1519 you may be established;G4741
12
That is, that I may be comfortedG4837 togetherG4837 with you by the mutualG1722 G240 faithG4102 bothG5037 of you and me.
13
NowG1161 I wouldG2309 not have you ignorant,G50 brothers,G80 that oftentimesG4178 I purposedG4388 to comeG2064 to you, (but was letG2967 till now,G891 G1204) that I might havG2192e somG5100e fruiG2590t amonG1722g you also,G2532 eveG2532n as amonG1722g otheG3062r Gentiles.G1484
14
I amG1510 debtorG3781 bothG5037 to the Greeks,G1672 and to the Barbarians;G915 bothG5037 to the wise,G4680 and to the unwise.G453
15
So,G3779 as muchG2596 as in me is, I am readyG4289 to preachG2097 the gospelG2097 to you that are atG1722 RomeG4516 also.G2532
16
For I am not ashamedG1870 of the gospelG2098 of Christ:G5547 for it is the powerG1411 of GodG2316 to salvationG4991 to everyG3956 one that believes;G4100 to the JewG2453 first,G4412 and alsoG2532 to the Greek.G1672
17
For thereinG1722 G846 is the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 revealedG601 from faithG4102 to faith:G4102 as it is written,G1125 The justG1342 shall liveG2198 by faith.G4102
18
For the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 is revealedG601 from heavenG3772 againstG1909 allG3956 ungodlinessG763 and unrighteousnessG93 of men,G444 whoG3588 holdG2722 the truthG225 in unrighteousness;G93
19
BecauseG1360 that which may be knownG1110 of GodG2316 is manifestG5319 in them; for GodG2316 has showedG5319 it to them.
20
For the invisibleG517 things of him from the creationG2937 of the worldG2889 are clearlyG2529 seen,G2529 being understoodG3539 by the things that are made,G4161 even his eternalG126 powerG1411 and Godhead;G2305 soG1519 that they are withoutG379 excuse:G379
21
BecauseG1360 that, when they knewG1097 God,G2316 they glorifiedG1392 him not as God,G2316 neitherG2228 were thankful;G2168 but becameG3154 vainG3154 in their imaginations,G1261 and their foolishG801 heartG2588 was darkened.G4654
22
ProfessingG5335 themselves to be wise,G4680 they becameG3471 fools,G3471
23
And changedG236 the gloryG1391 of the incorruptibleG862 GodG2316 intoG1722 an imageG1504 madeG4161 likeG3667 to corruptibleG5349 man,G444 and to birds,G4071 and four footedG5074 beasts,G5074 and creepingG2062 things.
24
WhyG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 gaveG3860 them up to uncleannessG167 throughG1722 the lustsG1939 of their own hearts,G2588 to dishonorG818 their own bodiesG4983 betweenG1722 themselves:G1438
25
WhoG3748 changedG3337 the truthG225 of GodG2316 intoG1722 a lie,G5579 and worshippedG4573 and servedG3000 the creatureG2937 moreG3844 thanG3844 the Creator,G2936 whoG3739 is blessedG2128 for ever.G165 Amen.G281
26
For thisG5124 causeG1223 GodG2316 gaveG3860 them up to vileG819 affections:G3806 for evenG5037 their womenG2338 did changeG3337 the naturalG5446 useG5540 intoG1519 that which is againstG3844 nature:G5449
27
And likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the men,G730 leavingG863 the naturalG5446 useG5540 of the woman,G2338 burnedG1572 in their lustG3715 oneG240 towardG1519 another;G240 menG730 with menG730 workingG2716 that which is unseemly,G808 and receivingG618 in themselvesG1438 that recompenseG489 of their errorG4106 whichG3739 was meet.G1163
28
And evenG2531 as they did not likeG1381 to retainG2192 GodG2316 in their knowledge,G1922 GodG2316 gaveG3860 them overG3860 to a reprobateG96 mind,G3563 to doG4160 thoseG3588 things which are not convenient;G2520
29
Being filledG4137 with allG3956 unrighteousness,G93 fornication,G4202 wickedness,G4189 covetousness,G4124 maliciousness;G2549 fullG3324 of envy,G5355 murder,G5408 debate,G2054 deceit,G1388 malignity;G2550 whisperers,G5588
30
Backbiters,G2637 hatersG2319 of God,G2319 despiteful,G5197 proud,G5244 boasters,G213 inventorsG2182 of evilG2556 things, disobedientG545 to parents,G1118
31
WithoutG801 understanding,G801 covenant breakers,G802 withoutG794 natural affection,G794 implacable,G786 unmerciful:G415
32
WhoG3748 knowingG1921 the judgmentG1345 of God,G2316 that they which commitG4238 suchG5108 things are worthyG514 of death,G2288 not onlyG3440 do the same,G846 but haveG2192 pleasureG4909 in them that doG4238 them.
