3the gospel concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David as to the flesh,
4and shown with power to be the Son of God as to his spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord;
5through whom we received grace and the office of an apostle in behalf of his name, in order to produce obedience to the faith among all nations;
6among whom are ye also, the called of Jesus Christ;
7to all the beloved of God at Rome, called, holy: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8In the first place, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how constantly I make mention of you, always in my prayers
10supplicating that, if it be possible, I may at last through the will of God be favored with an opportunity of coming to you.
11For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, which may be for your confirmation;
12that is, that I may be edified among you, and you also, through each other's faith, both yours and mine.
13But I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I often purposed to come to you, though I have been hindered hitherto, that I might have some fruit of my labors among you also, as among the other gentiles.
14I am debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the unwise.
15So, according to my ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also in Rome.
16For I am not ashamed of the gospel; for to every believer, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, it is the power of God unto salvation.
17For therein is revealed the righteousness which is of God from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all impiety and unrighteousness of men, who keep down the truth in unrighteousness.
19Because that which may be known of God is manifest within them; for God made it manifest to them.
20For, ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes, even his eternal power and divinity, being perceived from his works, are clearly seen, so that they might be without excuse.
21Because though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful to him; but became perverse in their reasonings, and their senseless minds were darkened;
22professing to be wise, they became fools,
23and for the glory of the incorruptible God they substituted images of corruptible man, and of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.
24Wherefore God also gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to debase their bodies with one another;
25because they changed the true God for false gods, and adored and worshipped created things rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26For this cause God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women indulged in unnatural lust,
27and in like manner the men also, neglecting the natural use of the female, burned with lust for one another, men with men practising that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due recompense of their error.
28And as they did not choose to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do things which are shameful;
