Romans 1
rwbs@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called an apostle, separated to the gospel of God,
rwbs@Romans:1:2 @ (Which he had promised before by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
rwbs@Romans:1:3 @ Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh;
rwbs@Romans:1:4 @ And declared the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: (note:)declared: Gr. determined(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:5 @ By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: (note:)for obedience…: or, to the obedience of faith(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:6 @ Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
rwbs@Romans:1:7 @ To all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
rwbs@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
rwbs@Romans: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; (note:)with: or, in(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:10 @ Making request, if by any means now at length I may have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come to you.
rwbs@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
rwbs@Romans:1:12 @ That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me. (note:)with: or, in(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:13 @ Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I have often purposed to come to you, (but was hindered until now,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles. (note:)among: or, in(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:14 @ I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
rwbs@Romans:1:15 @ So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
rwbs@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God to salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
rwbs@Romans:1:17 @ For in this is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
rwbs@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
rwbs@Romans:1:19 @ Because that which may be known of God is evident in them; for God hath shown to them. (note:)in them: or, to them(:note)
rwbs@Romans: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, his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (note:)so…: or, that they may be(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:21 @ Because that, when they knew God, they glorified not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
rwbs@Romans:1:22 @ Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
rwbs@Romans:1:23 @ And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
rwbs@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
rwbs@Romans: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. (note:)more: or, rather(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:26 @ For this cause God gave them up to vile affections: for even their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature:
rwbs@Romans: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 recompence of their error which was due.
rwbs@Romans:1:28 @ And even as they did not like to retain God in knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not proper; (note:)to retain: or, to acknowledge(:note)a reprobate…: or, a mind void of judgment or, an unapproving mind
rwbs@Romans:1:29 @ Being filled with all unrighteousness, immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
rwbs@Romans:1:30 @ Backbiters, haters of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
rwbs@Romans:1:31 @ Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: (note:)without natural…: or unsociable(:note)
rwbs@Romans:1:32 @ Who knowing the judgment of God, that they who commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. (note:)have…: or, consent with(:note)
