But when the barbarians saw the beast hanging from his hand, they said to one another, Surely this man is a murderer, whom, having been saved from the sea, justice did not permit to live.

and they were looking for him to be about to swell up and suddenly fall down dead. But having looked a long time, and seeing nothing out of place come to him, changing their minds, they said that he was a god.

But in the regions around about that place there were farms belonging to the chief man of the island, by name Publius: who, having received us, entertained us courteously three days.

But we desire to hear from you what you think: for indeed concerning this sect, it is known to us that it is everywhere spoken against.

And some of them indeed believed the things spoken, but others continued to doubt;

but this is the consolation among you through faith in one another, both of you and me.

But I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that frequently I purposed to come to you, and was hindered hitherto, in order that I may have some fruit among you, as well as also among other Gentiles.

For the righteousness of God is revealed in him from faith to faith: as has been written, But the just shall live by faith.

because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were they thankful; but they became vain in their reasonings, and their foolish heart was darkened.

who, knowing the rightfulness of God, that those who do such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but they even delight in those who are doing them.

But do you consider this, O man, judging those doing such things, and doing the same, that you shall escape the judgment of God?

But according to thy hardness and thy impenitent heart, thou art treasuring up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath and of the revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

but to those who are of self-seeking, and disobedient to the truth, but obedient to unrighteousness, there are indignation and wrath.

but glory and honor and peace to every one doing good; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

for the hearers of the law are not righteous with God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

But if you are denominated a Jew, and rest in the law, and boast in God,

For circumcision indeed profits, if you do the law: but if you be a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

But he is a Jew, who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

it could not be so: but let God be true, and every man a liar; as indeed it has been written, In order that you may be justified in your words, and shall prevail, in your judgment.

But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust administering wrath? I speak according to a man.

But we know that so many things as the law speaks, it says to those under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may become guilty before God.

but the righteousness of God through faith of Jesus Christ is unto all who believe: for there is no difference,

Then where is boasting? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No; but by the law of faith.

Then do we make void the law through faith? It could not be so: but we establish the law.

For if Abraham were justified by works, he has glorification; but not before God.

But to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned according to grace, but according to debt;

but to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned for righteousness.

Then how was it imputed? to him, being in circumcision or uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

and the father of circumcision to them who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.

For the promise to Abraham or his seed, that he should be the heir of the world, was not through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

Therefore it is by faith, in order that it may be by grace; that the promise may be sure to all the seed; not only of the law, but also of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,

but he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was filled up with dynamite through faith, having given glory to God;

but on account of us also, to whom it is about to be imputed, who believe on him who raised up our Lord Jesus from the dead;

And not only so, but let us also rejoice in tribulation; knowing that tribulation works out endurance;

but not only so, but even rejoicing in God through Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we now received reconciliation.

(for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed, there being no law;

but death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even on those who did not sin after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the type of him who is to come.

But not as was the transgression, even so is the free gift: for if by the transgression of one many died, how much more by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, did the grace of God and the gift abound unto many!

And not as by the one having sinned, is the free gift; for indeed, judgment was from one unto condemnation, but the free gift is from many transgressions unto justification.

But the law came, that the transgression might abound; but where sin did abound, there did grace superabound:

But if we died along with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him:

For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he lives, he lives unto God.

So you also thus reckon yourselves dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ.

neither present your members arms of iniquity unto sin; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members arms of righteousness unto God.

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under the law, but under grace.

What then? can we commit sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? it could not be so.

But thanks be unto God, that whereas ye were servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart the type of teaching into which ye were delivered:

but having been made free from sin, ye became servants unto righteousness.

But now having been made free from sin, and having become servants unto God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life.

For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord,

For a woman who is under her husband has been given to her husband by the law so long as he lives; but if the husband may die, she is free from the law of the husband.

Then if she may be married to another man, her husband still living, she will be designated an adulteress: but if her husband may die, she is free from the law; and is no adulteress, though she is married to another man.

But now we have been made free from the law, being dead in that in which we were held; so that we serve in the newness of the spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

Then what shall we say? is the law sin? It could not be so; but I did not know sin except through the law: for indeed I had not known lusts, unless the law said, Thou shalt not covet.

But sin, taking occasion through the commandment, did work in me all concupiscence; for without law sin was dead.

But I was alive at one time without law: but the commandment having come, sin revived,

Then did that which is good become death to me? it could not be so: but sin, that it may appear sin, through the good was working out death to me, in order that sin may be exceedingly sinful through the commandment.

For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, having been sold under sin.

For that which I do, I know not: for I do that which I do not will; but I do that which I hate.

But if I do that which I do not will, I consent to the law that it is beautiful;

but now it is no more I that do it, but sin dwelling in me.

For I know that in me, that is, in my carnal mind, there dwells no good thing. For to will is present with me, but to do that which is beautiful is not:

for the good which I will I do not; but the evil which I do not will, that I do.

If I do that which I do not will, it is no longer I that do it, but sin dwelling in me.

but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

Thanks be unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord: then therefore with the mind I serve the law of God; but with carnality the law of sin.

in order that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to depravity, but according to the spirit.

But those being in depravity are not able to please God.

But ye are not in depravity, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any one has not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.

But if Christ is in you, the body is dead so far as sin is concerned; but the Spirit is life so far as righteousness is concerned.

But if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one having raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also create life in your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who dwells in you.

For if you live according to depravity, you are about to die: but if through the Spirit you kill the practices of the body, you shall live.

For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again unto fear; but you received the Spirit of adoption, in which we cry; Father, Father.

For the creature has been subordinated to mortality, not willingly, but through Him who subordinated it;

and not only so, but we ourselves, having the earnest of the Spirit, and we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of sons, the redemption of our body.

For we are saved by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for why does any one indeed hope for that which he sees?

But if we hope for that which we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

And likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as it behooves us: but the Spirit himself makes intercession with unutterable groanings:

but he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession towards God in behalf of the saints.

But we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them that are called according to his purpose.

Indeed he who spared not his own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how will He not with him, freely give us all things?

But in all these we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

But not as that the word of God has been a failure. For these are not all Israel who are of Israel;

neither are the children all the seed of Abraham; but in Isaac shall thy seed be called;

that is the children of the flesh the same are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

Not only so; but Rebecca also having cohabitation of one, our father Isaac;

for the children not having been born, neither having done anything good or evil, in order that the purpose of God might stand according to election not of works, but of him that calleth,

as has been written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

Then it is not of him that willeth, nor him that runneth, but of God who shows mercy.

But if God, wishing to show forth his indignation and make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of indignation having been perfected unto destruction:

whom he called, even us, not only of the Jews, but also of the Gentiles:

but Isaiah cries out in behalf of Israel, Though the number of sons of Israel may be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.

but Israel, following after the law, did not attain unto the law of righteousness.

Why? Because they sought it not from faith, but as it were from works: they stumbled over the stone of stumbling,

For I testify to them, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to perfect knowledge;

But the righteousness of faith speaks thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend up into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down:

But what says it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach.

But they have not all heard the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?

But I say, Have they not all heard? Yea, truly, Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

But I say, Whether does not Israel know? Moses first says, I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, and with a nation void of understanding I will anger you.
