Paul ,
a servant of Jesus Christ ,
called to be an apostle ,
separated unto the gospel of God ,
drb @
Romans:1:2 @
Which he had promised before ,
by his prophets ,
in the holy scriptures ,
drb @
Romans:1:3 @
Concerning his Son ,
who was made to him of the seed of David ,
according to the flesh ,
drb @
Romans:1:4 @
Who was predestinated the Son of God in power ,
according to the spirit of sanctification ,
by the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead ;
drb @
Romans:1:5 @
By whom we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith ,
in all nations ,
for his name ;
drb @
Romans:1:6 @
Among whom are you also the called of Jesus Christ :
drb @
Romans:1:7 @
To all that are at Rome ,
the beloved of God ,
called to be saints .
Grace to you ,
and peace from God our Father ,
and from the Lord Jesus Christ .
drb @
Romans:1:8 @
First I give thanks to my God ,
through Jesus Christ ,
for you all ,
because your faith is spoken of in the whole world .
drb @
Romans:1:9 @
For God is my witness ,
whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son ,
that without ceasing I make a commemoration of you ;
drb @
Romans:1:10 @
Always in my prayers making request ,
if by any means now at length I may have a prosperous journey ,
by the will of God ,
to come unto you .
drb @
Romans:1:11 @
For I long to see you ,
that I may impart unto you some spiritual grace ,
to strengthen you :
drb @
Romans:1:12 @
That is to say ,
that I may be comforted together in you ,
by that which is common to us both ,
your faith and mine .
drb @
Romans:1:13 @
And I would not have you ignorant ,
brethren ,
that I have often purposed to come unto you , (
and have been hindered hitherto ,)
that I might have some fruit among you also ,
even as among other Gentiles .
drb @
Romans:1:14 @
To the Greeks and to the barbarians ,
to the wise and to the unwise ,
I am a debtor ;
drb @
Romans:1:15 @
So (
as much as is in me )
I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are at Rome .
drb @
Romans:1:16 @
For I am not ashamed of the gospel .
For it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth ,
to the Jew first ,
and to the Greek .
drb @
Romans:1:17 @
For the justice of God is revealed therein ,
from faith unto faith ,
as it is written :
The just man liveth by faith .
drb @
Romans:1:18 @
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and injustice of those men that detain the truth of God in injustice :
drb @
Romans:1:19 @
Because that which is known of God is manifest in them .
For God hath manifested it unto them .
drb @
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 also ,
and divinity :
so that they are inexcusable .
drb @
Romans:1:21 @
Because that ,
when they knew God ,
they have not glorified him as God ,
or given thanks ;
but became vain in their thoughts ,
and their foolish heart was darkened .
drb @
Romans:1:22 @
For professing themselves to be wise ,
they became fools .
drb @
Romans:1:23 @
And they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of the image of a corruptible man ,
and of birds ,
and of fourfooted beasts ,
and of creeping things .
drb @
Romans:1:24 @
Wherefore God gave them up to the desires of their heart ,
unto uncleanness ,
to dishonour their own bodies among themselves .
drb @
Romans:1:25 @
Who changed the truth of God into a lie ;
and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator ,
who is blessed for ever .
Amen .
drb @
Romans:1:26 @
For this cause God delivered them up to shameful affections .
For their women have changed the natural use into that use which is against nature .
drb @
Romans:1:27 @
And ,
in like manner ,
the men also ,
leaving the natural use of the women ,
have burned in their lusts one towards another ,
men with men working that which is filthy ,
and receiving in themselves the recompense which was due to their error .
drb @
Romans:1:28 @
And as they liked not to have God in their knowledge ,
God delivered them up to a reprobate sense ,
to do those things which are not convenient ;
drb @
Romans:1:29 @
Being filled with all iniquity ,
malice ,
fornication ,
avarice ,
wickedness ,
full of envy ,
murder ,
contention ,
deceit ,
malignity ,
whisperers ,
drb @
Romans:1:30 @
Detractors ,
hateful to God ,
contumelious ,
proud ,
haughty ,
inventors of evil things ,
disobedient to parents ,
drb @
Romans:1:31 @
Foolish ,
dissolute ,
without affection ,
without fidelity ,
without mercy .
drb @
Romans:1:32 @
Who ,
having known the justice of God ,
did not understand that they who do such things ,
are worthy of death ;
and not only they that do them ,
but they also that consent to them that do them .
