Because, although knowing God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful, but became vain in their reasonings and their heart was darkened without understanding.

who changed the truth of God into the lie, and worshiped and served the creation against him who created it, who is blessed into the ages. Truly.

Because from works of law no flesh will be made right before him, for through law is knowledge of sin.

(in the forbearance of God), for proof of his justice at the present time, for him to be righteous, and who makes the man from Jesus' faith righteous.

But to the man not being employed, but who believes in him who makes the impious man righteous, his faith is reckoned for righteousness.

And he received the sign of circumcision, as a seal of the righteousness of his faith during uncircumcision, for him to be father of all those who believe during uncircumcision (for righteousness to also be imputed to them),

For the promise to Abraham or to his seed, for him to be heir of the world, was not through law, but through a righteousness of faith.

(as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations), before him whom he believed, of God who makes the dead alive, and who calls things not existing, as existing.

Who, against hope, believed in hope, in order for him to become father of many nations according to that which was spoken, So thy seed will be.

And therefore it was reckoned to him for righteousness.

Now it was not written because of him alone that it was imputed to him,

but also because of us to whom it is going to be imputed, to those who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,

Much more then, now having been made righteous by his blood, we will be saved from the wrath through him.

We were buried therefore with him through the immersion into death, so that as Christ was raised up from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we may walk in newness of life.

Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, so that the body of sin might be inactivated, no longer to enslave us to sin.

And if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,

knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has dominion over him.

Therefore, my brothers, ye also became dead to the law through the body of Christ in order for ye to become to another, to him who was raised from the dead, so that we would bear fruit to God.

But ye are not in flesh but in Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man does not have the Spirit of Christ, this man is not of him.

But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up the Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwells in you.

For the creation was made subject to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it in hope.

Because whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be of similar nature of the form of his Son, in order for him to be the firstborn son among many brothers.

He who did not even spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how will he not also give us all things with him?

(for not yet having been born, nor having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to selection might remain, not from works, but from him who calls),

So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who is merciful.

Rather, O man, who are thou answering back to God? No, will the thing formed say to him who formed it, Why did thou make me this way?

just as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense. And every man who believes in him will not be shamed.

that if thou will confess with thy mouth, Lord Jesus, and will believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou will be saved.

For the scripture says, Every man who believes in him will not be shamed.

For there is no distinction of a Jew and also of a Greek, for the same Lord is of all men, being rich toward all those who call upon him.

But what does the divine response say to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed a knee to Baal.

Or who first gave to him, and it will be repaid to him?

Because from him, and through him, and for him, are all things. To him is the glory into the ages. Truly.

Therefore if thine enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him to drink. For by doing this thou will heap coals of fire upon his head.

The man who eats should not disdain the man who does not eat, and the man who does not eat should not criticize the man who eats, for God has received him.

Who are thou who criticizes the servant of another? To his own lord he stands or falls. And he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
