mkjv@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, separated to the gospel of God

mkjv@Romans:1:2 @ (which He had promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures),

mkjv@Romans:1:3 @ about His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was made of the seed of David according to the flesh,

mkjv@Romans:1:4 @ who was marked out the Son of God in power, according to [the] Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from [the] dead;

mkjv@Romans:1:5 @ by whom we have received grace and apostleship, to obedience to the faith among all nations, for His name;

mkjv@Romans:1:6 @ among whom you also are the called-out ones of Jesus Christ:

mkjv@Romans:1:7 @ to all those who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be] saints. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

mkjv@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

mkjv@Romans:1:10 @ always in my prayers, making request if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come to you.

mkjv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to you for the establishing of you.

mkjv@Romans:1:12 @ And this is to be comforted together with you by our mutual faith, both yours and mine.

mkjv@Romans:1:13 @ But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that oftentimes I purposed to come to you, and was kept back until the present; that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other nations.

mkjv@Romans:1:14 @ I am debtor both to the Greeks and to the foreigners, both to the wise and to the unwise.

mkjv@Romans:1:15 @ So, as much as is in me [lies], I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are at Rome also.

mkjv@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is [the] power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

mkjv@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

mkjv@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,

mkjv@Romans:1:19 @ because the thing which may be known of God is clearly revealed within them, for God revealed [it] to them.

mkjv@Romans:1:20 @ For the unseen things of Him from [the] creation of [the] world [are] clearly seen, being realized by the things that are made, [even] His eternal power and Godhead, for them to be without excuse.

mkjv@Romans:1:21 @ Because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were thankful. But [they] became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

mkjv@Romans:1:22 @ Professing to be wise, they became fools

mkjv@Romans:1:23 @ and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.

mkjv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of [their] hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves.

mkjv@Romans:1:25 @ For they changed the truth of God into a lie, and they worshiped and served the created thing more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:1:26 @ For this cause, God gave them up to dishonorable affections. For even their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature.

mkjv@Romans:1:27 @ And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another; males with males working out shamefulness, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting for their error.

mkjv@Romans:1:28 @ And even as they did not think fit to have God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do the things not right,

mkjv@Romans:1:29 @ being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; [being] full of envy, murder, quarrels, deceit, evil habits, [becoming] whisperers,

mkjv@Romans:1:30 @ backbiters, haters of God, insolent, proud, braggarts, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

mkjv@Romans:1:31 @ undiscerning, perfidious, without natural] affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;

mkjv@Romans:1:32 @ who, knowing the righteous order of God, that those practicing such things are worthy of death, not only do them, but have pleasure in those practicing [them].

mkjv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you are without excuse, O man, everyone who judges; for in that in which you judge another, you condemn yourself, for you who judge do the same things.

mkjv@Romans:2:2 @ But know that the judgment of God is according to truth on those who practice such things.

mkjv@Romans:2:3 @ And, O man, the [one] judging those who do such things, and practice them, do you think this, that you shall escape the judgment of God?

mkjv@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the riches of His kindness, and the forbearance and long-suffering, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

mkjv@Romans:2:5 @ But according to your hardness and your impenitent heart, do you treasure up wrath for yourself in a day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

mkjv@Romans:2:6 @ who will render to each according to his works;

mkjv@Romans:2:7 @ indeed to those who with patience [in] good work [are] seeking for glory, and honor, and incorruptibility, everlasting life.

mkjv@Romans:2:8 @ But to those who indeed disobeying the truth out] of self-seeking, and obeying unrighteousness, will be] anger and wrath,

mkjv@Romans:2:9 @ tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man who has worked out evil; of the Jew first, and also of the Greek.

mkjv@Romans:2:10 @ But He [will give] glory, honor and peace to every man who works good, to [the] Jew first and also to [the] Greek.

mkjv@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no respect of faces with God.

mkjv@Romans:2:12 @ For as many as sinned without Law will also perish without Law. And as many as have sinned within Law shall be judged through Law.

mkjv@Romans:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of the Law who [are] just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified.

mkjv@Romans:2:14 @ For when the nations, who do not have the Law, do by nature the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law unto themselves;

mkjv@Romans:2:15 @ who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and the thoughts between one another accusing or even excusing one another,

mkjv@Romans:2:16 @ in a day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

mkjv@Romans:2:17 @ Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the Law, and boast in God;

mkjv@Romans:2:18 @ and know [His] will and approve the things excelling, being instructed out of the Law;

mkjv@Romans:2:19 @ and persuading yourselves to be a guide of the blind, a light to those in darkness;

mkjv@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, who have the form of knowledge and of the truth in the Law.

mkjv@Romans:2:21 @ Therefore the [one] teaching another, do you not teach yourself? The [one] preaching not to steal, do you steal?

mkjv@Romans:2:22 @ The [one] saying not to commit adultery, do you commit adultery? The [one] detesting idols, do you rob temples?

mkjv@Romans:2:23 @ [You] who boast in Law, do you dishonor God through breaking the Law?

mkjv@Romans:2:24 @ For the name of God is blasphemed among the nations because of you, as it is written.

mkjv@Romans:2:25 @ For circumcision truly profits if you keep [the] Law, but if you are a transgressor of the Law, circumcision becomes uncircumcision.

mkjv@Romans:2:26 @ If then the uncircumcision keeps the ordinances of the Law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

mkjv@Romans:2:27 @ And the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the Law, shall it not judge you, who through letter and circumcision [become] transgressors of the Law?

mkjv@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a Jew who [is one] outwardly, nor [is] circumcision that outwardly in flesh;

mkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he [is] a Jew who [is one] inwardly, and circumcision [is] of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; whose praise [is] not from men, but from God.

mkjv@Romans:3:1 @ Then what [is] the superiority of the Jew? Or what [is] the profit of circumcision?

mkjv@Romans:3:2 @ Much, by every way! Chiefly, indeed, because they were entrusted with the oracles of God.

mkjv@Romans:3:3 @ For what? If some did not believe, will not their unbelief nullify the faith of God?

mkjv@Romans:3:4 @ Let it not be! But let God be true, and every man a liar; as it is written, That You might be justified in Your sayings, and will overcome when You are judged.

mkjv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who lays on wrath? (I speak as a man.)

mkjv@Romans:3:6 @ Let it not be! For then how shall God judge the world?

mkjv@Romans:3:7 @ For if in my lie the truth has more abounded to His glory why am I still judged as a sinner?

mkjv@Romans:3:8 @ And not [rather], (as we are wrongly accused, and as some affirm that we say), Let us do bad things that good may come? [Their] condemnation is just.

mkjv@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Do we excel? No, in no way; for we have before charged both Jews and Greeks all [with] being under sin,

mkjv@Romans:3:10 @ as it is written: There is none righteous, no not one;

mkjv@Romans:3:11 @ there is none that understands, there is none that seeks after God.

mkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They are all gone out of the way, [they] have together become unprofitable, there is none that does good, no, not one.

mkjv@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat [is] an open grave, with their tongues they have used deceit, [the] poison of asps [is] under their lips;

mkjv@Romans:3:14 @ whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness;

mkjv@Romans:3:15 @ their feet [are] swift to shed blood;

mkjv@Romans:3:16 @ destruction and misery [are] in their way,

mkjv@Romans:3:17 @ and the way of peace they did not know.

mkjv@Romans:3:18 @ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

mkjv@Romans:3:19 @ But we know that whatever things the Law says, it says to those who are under the Law; so that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may be under judgment before God,

mkjv@Romans:3:20 @ because by the works of the Law none of all flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law [is] the knowledge of sin.

mkjv@Romans:3:21 @ But now a righteousness of God has been revealed apart from Law, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets;

mkjv@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness of God through the faith of Jesus Christ, toward all and upon all those who believe. For there is no difference,

mkjv@Romans:3:23 @ for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,

mkjv@Romans:3:24 @ being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;

mkjv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God has set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness through the passing by of the sins that had taken place before, in the forbearance of God;

mkjv@Romans:3:26 @ for the display of His righteousness at this time, for Him to be just and, forgiving the [one] being of the faith of Jesus.

mkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Then where [is] the boasting? It is excluded. Through what law? Of works? No, but through the law of faith.

mkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the works of the law.

mkjv@Romans:3:29 @ Or [is He] the God of the Jews only, and not also of the nations? Yes, of the nations also,

mkjv@Romans:3:30 @ since [it is] one God who will justify circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

mkjv@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then make the Law void through faith? Let it not be! But we establish the Law.

mkjv@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say that our father Abraham has found, according to flesh?
