There is no difference: For all have sinned, and lack the praise that is of valour before God:

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercifulness of God, that ye make your bodies a living sacrifice: holy and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable serving of God.

For we know well that all things work for the best unto them that love God, which also are called of purpose.

And fashion not yourselves like unto this world: But be changed through the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what thing that good, that acceptable, and perfect will of God is.

For the reward of sin is death: but eternal life is the gift of God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

For if thou shalt knowledge with thy mouth that Jesus is the Lord, and shalt believe with thine heart that God raised him up from death, thou shalt be safe.

But God setteth out his love that he hath to us; Seeing that while we were yet sinners; Christ died for us.

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by the means of sin; And so death went over all men, insomuch that all men sinned.

Because therefore that we are justified by faith we are at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

There is, then, no damnation to them which are in Christ Jesus: which walk not after the flesh but after the spirit:

For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God unto salvation to all that believe; namely to the Jew, and also to the gentile.

For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be safe.

For the wrath of God appeareth from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men which withhold the truth in unrighteousness.

Let every soul submit himself unto the authority of the higher powers. For there is no power, but of God. The powers that be, are ordained of God.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing cometh by the word of God.

as it is written, "There is none righteous, no not one:

So that his invisible things, that is to say, his eternal power and godhead, are understood and seen by the works from the creation of the world. So that they are without excuse,

Remember ye not, that all we which are baptised in the name of Christ Jesus, are baptised to die with him?

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that there may be abundance of grace?

But ye are not given to the flesh; But to the spirit: If so be that the spirit of God dwell in you. If there be any man that hath not the spirit of Christ, the same is none of his.

For those which he knew before, he also ordained before, that they should be like fashioned unto the shape of his son, that he might be the first begotten son among many brethren.

Likewise, the spirit also helpeth our infirmities. For we know not, what to desire as we ought: but the spirit maketh intercession mightily for us with groanings which cannot be expressed with tongue.

Yea and I am sure that neither death, neither life, neither angels; nor rule, neither power, neither things present, neither things to come,

for as many as are led by the spirit of God: they are the sons of God.

What shall we then say unto these things? if God be on our side: who can be against us?

We are buried with him by baptism for to die: That likewise as Christ was raised up from death by the glory of the father: even so we also should walk in a new life.

For I suppose that the afflictions of this life are not worthy of the glory which shall be showed upon us.

For this cause, God gave them up unto shameful lusts. For even their women did change the natural use unto the unnatural.

of the which heathen are ye a part also, which are Jesus Christ's by vocation.

Whatsoever things are written aforetime, are written for our learning: that we, through patience and comfort of the scripture, might have hope.

Now, verily, is the righteousness that cometh of God declared without the fulfilling of the law: having witness yet of the law, and of the prophets.

For when we were yet weak according to the time: Christ died for us which were ungodly.

For I say, through the grace that unto me is given, to every man among you: that no man esteem of himself more than it becometh him to esteem - But that he discreetly judge of himself according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

that make mention of his son, the which was begotten unto him of the seed of David, as pertaining to the flesh:

The same spirit certifieth our spirit that we are the sons of God.

but are justified freely by his grace, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus

Paul, the servant of Jesus Christ, called unto the office to be an apostle, put apart to preach the Gospel of God,

Let love be without dissimulation. Hate that which is evil, and cleave unto that which is good.

Thinkest thou this, O thou man that judgest them which do such things and yet doest even the very same: that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

yer the children were born, when they had neither done good neither bad - that the purpose of God, which is by election, might stand - it was said unto her, not by the reason of works, but by grace of the caller,

Neither do we so, only: but also we rejoice in tribulation: For we know that tribulation bringeth patience,

But how shall they call on him, on whom they believed not? How shall they believe on him of whom they have not heard? How shall they hear without a preacher?

beseeching that at one time or another, a prosperous journey, by the will of God, might fortune me to come unto you.

For by it, the righteousness which cometh of God is opened, from faith to faith. As it is written, "The just shall live by faith."

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage to fear anymore, but ye have received the spirit of adoption whereby we cry, "Abba father."

That is: that I might have consolation together with you, through the common faith, which both ye and I have.

Who shall separate us from the love of God? Shall tribulation? Or anguish? Or persecution, other hunger? Other nakedness? Other peril? Other sword?

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 always in my prayers,

I beseech you, brethren: mark them which cause division, and give occasions of evil contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

Owe nothing to any man: but to love one another. For he that loveth another, fulfilleth the law.

O the deepness of the abundant wisdom and knowledge of God: how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out.

Wherefore, if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the gentiles, how much more should it be so if they all believed?

because that by the deeds of the law, shall no flesh be justified in the sight of God. For by the law cometh the knowledge of sin.

and hope maketh not ashamed: for the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts, by the holy ghost, which is given unto us.

inasmuch as when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful: but waxed full of vanities in their imaginations. And their foolish hearts were blinded.

I would that ye should know, brethren, how that I have oftentimes purposed to come unto you, but have been let hitherto, to have some fruit among you, as I have among other of the gentiles.

First: Verily I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because your faith is published throughout all the world.

- whom God hath set forth for a mercy seat through faith in his blood, to show the righteousness which before him is of valour, in that he forgiveth the sins that are passed,

Be merry with them that are merry. Weep with them that weep.

Wherefore God, likewise, gave them up unto their hearts' lusts, unto uncleanness to defile their own bodies between themselves:

Seeing that we have divers gifts according to the grace that is given unto us: if any man have the gift of prophecy, let him have it that it be agreeing unto the faith;

The God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may be rich in hope through the power of the holy ghost.

Him that is weak in the faith, receive unto you not in disputing and troubling his conscience. ]

Seeing what may be known of God, that same is manifest among them: For God did show it unto them.

I would not that this secret should be hid from you my brethren, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits: that partly blindness is happened in Israel, until the fullness of the gentiles be come in.

There is no difference between the Jew and the gentile. For one is Lord of all: which is rich unto all that call on him.

because that the fleshly mind is enmity against God: For it is not obedient to the law of God, neither can be.

Nevertheless, in all these things we overcome strongly through his help that loved us.

Much more then, now seeing we are justified in his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.

As we have many members in one body, and all members have not one office:

If we be sons, we are also heirs: the heirs, I mean, of God: and heirs annexed with Christ. If so be that we suffer together, that we may be glorified together.

Therefore art thou inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou be that judgest. For in the same wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself. For thou that judgest doest even the same self things.

This we must remember, that our old man is crucified with him also, that the body of sin might utterly be destroyed; that henceforth we should not be servants of sin.

Either despisest thou the riches of his goodness and patience, and long sufferance? And rememberest not how that the kindness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

Wherefore, if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from death, dwell in you: even he that raised up Christ from death, shall quicken your mortal bodies, because that this spirit dwelleth in you.

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves but give room unto the wrath of God. For it is written, "Vengeance is mine, and I will reward, saith the Lord."

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

Yea and we know that whatsoever the law saith, he saith it to them which are under the law: That all mouths may be stopped, and all the world be subdued to God,

What say we then? Are we better than they? No, in no wise. For we have already proved how that both Jews and gentiles are all under sin,

But what saith the scripture? "The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth and in thine heart." This word is the word of faith which we preach.

Be kind one to another, with brotherly love. In giving honour go one before another.

Also, the fervent desire of the creatures abideth looking when the sons of God shall appear;

The righteousness, no doubt, which is good before God cometh by the faith of Jesus Christ: unto all, and upon all them that believe.

who then shall condemn? It is Christ which is dead; Yea rather which is risen again, which is also on the righthand of God and maketh intercession for us.

I commend unto you Phoebe our sister, which is a minister of the congregation of Cenchreae,

For what the law could not do, inasmuch as it was weak because of the flesh - that performed God, and sent his son in the similitude of sinful flesh, and by sin damned sin in the flesh;

Which spared not his own son, but gave him for us all: How shall he not with him give us all things also?

For they that are carnal, are carnally minded; But they that are spiritual are spiritually minded.

I say the truth in Christ, and lie not, in that whereof my conscience beareth me witness in the holy ghost,

We suppose, therefore we hold, that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

Likewise, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the Gospel to you of Rome also.

For the belief of the heart justifieth: and to knowledge with the mouth maketh a man safe.

and declared to be the son of God with power of the holy ghost, that sanctifieth, since the time that Jesus Christ our Lord rose again from death:

Which was delivered for our sins, and rose again for to justify us.

But why doest thou then judge thy brother? Other why dost thou despise thy brother? We shall all be brought before the judgment seat of Christ.

For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his son: much more, seeing we are reconciled, we shall be preserved by his life.

To be carnally minded is death; But to be spiritually minded is life, and peace:

God forbid. For how then shall God judge the world?

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid: but I knew not what sin meant but by the law. For I had not known what lust had meant, except the law had said, "Thou shalt not lust."

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy, in the holy ghost.

Remember ye not how that to whomsoever ye commit yourselves as servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey: whether it be of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

Let not sin have power over you. For ye are not under the law, but under grace.

which turned his truth unto a lie, and worshipped and served the creatures more than the creator, which is blessed forever, Amen.

To him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel and preaching of Jesus Christ, in uttering of the mystery which was kept secret since the world began,

For the law of the spirit, that bringeth life through Jesus Christ, hath delivered me from the law of sin, and death:

Brethren: my heart's desire, and prayer to God for Israel, is that they might be saved.

To him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, is his faith counted for righteousness.

I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For even I verily am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, and of the tribe of Benjamin;

What shall we say, then, that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, did find?

For if ye live after the flesh, ye must die. But if ye mortify the deeds of the body, by the help of the spirit, ye shall live,

And as it seemed not good unto them to be a known of God, even so God delivered them up unto a lewd mind, that they should do those things which were not comely,

Not they only, but even we also: which have the first fruits of the spirit mourn in ourselves and wait for the adoption and look for the deliverance of our bodies.

God forbid. Let God be true, and all men liars, as it is written, "That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings and shouldest overcome when thou art judged."

For of him, and through him, and for him are all things. To him be glory forever Amen.

Rejoice in hope. Be patient in tribulation, continue in prayer.

Likewise, imagine ye also, that ye are dead concerning sin: but are alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

We which are strong ought to bear the frailness of them which are weak, and not to stand in our own conceits.

Remember ye not brethren - I speak to them that know the law - how that the law hath power over a man as long as it endureth?

For we know that every creature groaneth with us also, and travaileth in pain even unto this time.

If it be possible, howbeit of your part, have peace with all men.

And so all Israel shall be saved. As it is written, "There shall come out of Zion he that doth deliver, and shall turn away the ungodliness of Jacob.

So we, being many, are one body in Christ - and every man, among ourselves, one another's members.

Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide aforehand things honest in the sight of all men.

Likewise, then, as by the sin of one, condemnation came on all men: even so, by the justifying of one cometh the righteousness that bringeth life, upon all men.

This man putteth difference between day and day: another man counteth all days alike. See that no man waver in his own meaning.

This also we know, I mean the season: how that it is time that we should now awake out of sleep. For now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

Be not overcome of evil: But overcome evil with goodness.

So lieth it not then in a man's will, or cunning, but in the mercy of God.

For if by the sin of one, death reigned by the means of one, much more shall they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life by the means of one; that is to say, Jesus Christ.

For I know that in me, that is to say, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing. To will is present with me: but I find no means to perform that which is good.

For he is not a Jew, which is a Jew outward. Neither is that thing circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

because I know not what I do. For what I would, that do I not: but what I hate, that do I.

For if the gentiles, which have no law, do of nature the things contained in the law: then they having no law, are a law unto themselves,

Salute one another among yourselves with a holy kiss. The congregations of Christ salute you.

Therefore, brethren, we are now debtors; not to the flesh, to live after the flesh:

Bless them which persecute you: bless, but curse not.

Let not sin reign therefore in your mortal bodies, that ye should thereunto obey in the lusts of it.

by whom we have received grace and apostleship, to bring all manner heathen people unto obedience of the faith, that is in his name:

To all you of Rome beloved of God, and saints by calling. Grace be with you, and peace from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

whose also are the fathers, and they of whom; as concerning the flesh; Christ came: which is God over all things, blessed forever. Amen.

When they counted themselves wise, they became fools

For as by one man's disobedience many became sinners: so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

O wretched man that I am: who shall deliver me from this body of death?

For Christ is the end of the law to justify all that believe.

but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ. And make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts of it.

I speak not these things as though the words of God had taken none effect. For they are not all Israelites which came of Israel;

I have, therefore, whereof I may rejoice in Christ Jesus, in those things which pertain to God.

For he that maketh conscience, is damned if he eat: Because he doth it not of faith. For whatsoever is not of faith, that same is sin.

What preferment, then, hath the Jew? Other, what advantageth circumcision?

But the law, in the meantime, entered in that sin should increase. Neverthelater, where abundance of sin was, there was more plenteousness of grace.

For what saith the scripture? "Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness."

For if the casting away of them, be the reconciling of the world: what shall the receiving of them be, but life again from death?

Let us not, therefore, judge one another any more. But judge this, rather: that no man put a stumbling block, or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

which he promised afore by his prophets, in the holy scriptures

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

The God of patience and consolation give unto every one of you, that ye be like likeminded one towards another after the example of Jesus Christ:

that I might provoke them which are my flesh: and might save some of them.

If the verity of God appear more excellent through my lie, unto his praise, why am I henceforth judged as a sinner?

If Christ be in you: the body is dead, because of sin; But the spirit is life for righteousness' sake.

Moreover, which he appointed before, them he also called; and which he called, them also he justified; which he justified, them he also glorified.

Wherefore receive ye one another as Christ received us, to the praise of God.

For as touching that he died, he died as concerning sin once. And as touching that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

For he is the minister of God, for thy wealth. But and if thou do evil, then fear: for he beareth not a sword for nought; but is the minister of God, to take vengeance on them that do evil.

which will reward every man according to his deeds,

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of them which bring glad tidings of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things."

For these commandments: Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not desire, and so forth: if there be any other commandment, they are all comprehended in this saying, "Love thine neighbor as thyself."

But thou, after thine hard heart that cannot repent, heapest thee together the treasure of wrath against the day of vengeance: when shall be opened the righteous judgment of God,

Distribute unto the necessity of the saints, and diligently to harbour.

I myself am full certified of you, my brethren, that ye yourselves are full of goodness, and filled with all knowledge, and are able to exhort one another.

Let us follow those things which make for peace: and things wherewith one may edify another.

Let us walk honestly as it were in the daylight: not in eating and drinking: neither in chambering and wantonness: neither in strife and envying:

Neither give ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: But give yourselves unto God, as they that are alive from death. And give your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

because the creatures are subdued to vanity against their will: but for his will which subdueth them in hope.

But the gift is not like as the sin. For if, through the sin of one, many be dead: much more plenteous, upon many, was the grace of God and gift by grace: which grace was given by one man, Jesus Christ.

Love hurteth not his neighbor: Therefore is love the fulfilling of the law.

God be thanked, that though ye were once the servants of sin, ye have yet obeyed with your heart unto the form of doctrine where unto ye were delivered.

For verily the gifts and calling of God are such, that it cannot repent him of them.

Be of like affection one towards another. Be not high minded, but make yourselves equal to them of the lower sort. Be not wise in your own opinions.

Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's chosen? It is God that justifieth:

So shall every one of us give accounts of himself to God.

Let not that business which ye have in hand be tedious to you. Be fervent in the spirit. Apply yourselves to the time.

Wherefore if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live with him:

And likewise also the men left the natural use of the woman, and burnt in their lusts, one on another, among themselves. And man with man wrought filthiness: and received in themselves the reward of their error, as it was according.

For the scripture saith, "Whosoever believeth on him, shall not be ashamed."

without understanding, covenant-breakers, unloving, truce-breakers, and merciless.

To him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of favour: but of duty.

The God of peace tread Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

For if one piece be holy, the whole heap is holy. And if the root be holy, the branches are holy also.

What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under the law: but under grace? God forbid.

I speak to you gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the gentiles I will magnify mine office

As it is written, "I have made thee a father to many nations," even before God whom thou hast believed, which quickeneth the dead and called those things which be not, as though they were.

by whom we have a way in, through faith, unto this grace wherein we stand and rejoice in hope of the praise that shall be given of God.

For if we be graft in death like unto him: even so must we be in the resurrection.

But whosoever hath sinned without law, shall perish without law. And as many as have sinned under the law, shall be judged by the law.

If it be of grace, then is it not of works. For then were grace no more grace. If it be by the deserving of works, then is it no more grace. For then were deserving no longer deserving.

Do we then destroy the law through faith? God forbid. But we, rather, maintain the law.

Behold, thou art called a Jew, and trustest in the law and rejoicest in God,

"The elder shall serve the younger."

Even so, ye my brethren; ye also are made dead as concerning the law by the body of Christ, that ye should be coupled to another - I mean to him that is risen again from death - that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

I say then, Have they therefore stumbled that they should but fall only? God forbid: but through their fall is salvation happened unto the gentiles for to provoke them withal.

And the very same commandment which was ordained unto life, was found to be unto me an occasion of death.

For they that are such serve not the Lord Jesus Christ: but their own bellies. And with sweet preachings and flattering words deceive the hearts of the innocents:

For sin took occasion by the means of the commandment and so deceived me, and by the selfsame commandment, slew me.

Blessed is that man to whom the Lord imputeth not sin."

backbiters, haters of God, doers of wrong, proud, boasters, bringers-up of evil things, disobedient to fathers and mothers,

For even unto the time of the law was sin in the world: but sin was not regarded, as long as there was no law:

For whosoever in these things serveth Christ, pleaseth well God: and is commended of men.

Thou wilt say then, "The branches are broken off, that I might be graft in."

For I dare not speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the gentiles obedient, with word and deed,

seeing that God spared not the natural branches, lest haply he also spare not thee.

boast not thyself against the branches. For if thou boast thyself, remember that thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

Thou sayest well: because of unbelief they are broken off, and thou standest steadfast in faith. Be not high minded, but fear:

But unto them that are rebellious, and disobey the truth, and follow iniquity, shall come indignation and wrath,

"Whose mouths are full of cursing and bitterness."

Came this blessedness then upon the circumcised or upon the uncircumcised? We say verily how that faith was reckoned to Abraham, for righteousness.

in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the spirit of God: so that from Jerusalem and the coasts round about, unto Illyricum, I have filled all countries with glad tidings of Christ.

And this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins."

As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are loved for the fathers' sake.

To every man that doth good shall come praise, honour and peace, to the Jew first, and also to the gentile.

tribulation and anguish, upon the soul of every man that doth evil. Of the Jew first: And also of the gentile.

For if thou wast cut out of a natural wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature in a true olive tree: how much more shall the natural branches be graffed in their own olive tree again?

How was it reckoned? In the time of circumcision? Or in the time before he was circumcised? Not in time of circumcision: but when he was yet uncircumcised.

Timothy my work fellow, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater, my kinsmen salute you.

And the gift is not over one sin, as death came through one sin of one that sinned. For damnation came of one sin unto condemnation: But the gift came to justify from many sins.

That as sin had reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life, by the help of Jesus Christ.

"Their throat is an open sepulchre, with their tongues they have deceived." "The poison of Asps is under their lips."

but as it is written, "To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that heard not, shall understand."

If I do now that which I would not, I grant to the law that it is good.

And the way of peace have they not known."

What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed. For the end of those things is death.

Destruction and wretchedness are in their ways:

but now seeing I have no more to do in these countries, and also have been desirous many years to come unto you,

"Their feet are swift to shed blood.

"There is no fear of God before their eyes."

and they if they bide not still in unbelief shall be grafted in again. For God is of power to graft them in again.

As he saith in Hosea, "I will call them my people which were not my people: and her beloved which was not beloved."

So then, now it is not I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

when I shall take my journey into Spain, I will come to you. I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you after that I have somewhat enjoyed you.

patience bringeth experience, experience bringeth hope,

But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth, against them which commit such things.

Hast thou faith? Have it with thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.

And that he might be the father of the circumcised: not because they are circumcised only: but because they walk also in the steps of that faith, that was in our father Abraham before the time of circumcision.

and knowest his will, and hast experience of good and bad, in that thou art informed by the law:

Gaius mine host and the host of all the congregations, saluteth you. Erastus, the chamberlain of the city, saluteth you. And Quartus, a brother, saluteth you.

God hath not cast away his people which he knew before. Either know ye not what the scripture saith by the mouth of Elijah, how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all Amen.

I Tercius salute you, which wrote this epistle in the Lord.

When I have performed this, and have brought them this fruit sealed, I will come back again by you into Spain.

For look, as ye in time past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

Let their eyes be blinded that they see not: and ever bow down their backs."

And believest that thou thyself art a guide unto the blind, a light to them which are in darkness,

For when ye were servants of sin, ye were not under righteousness.

But thou which teachest another, teachest not thyself. Thou preachest, a man should not steal: and yet thou stealest.

For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia, to make a certain distribution upon the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.

Thou sayest, a man should not commit adultery: and thou breakest wedlock.

Destroy not the work of God for a little meat's sake. All things are pure: but it is evil for that man, which eateth with hurt of his conscience.

an informer of them which lack discretion, a teacher of the unlearned, which hast the example of that which ought to be known, and of the truth in the law.

Finally, if I do that I would not, then is it not I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me doeth it.

Therefore if the uncircumcised keep the right things contained in the law: shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it keep the law, judge thee, which being under the letter and circumcision, dost transgress the law?

For the name of God is evil spoken-of among the gentiles, through you, as it is written.

"Lord they have killed thy prophets and digged down thine altars: and I am left only, and they seek my life."

Let him that hath an office, wait on his office;

Thou abhorrest images: and robbest God of his honour. Thou rejoicest in the law: and through breaking the law dishonourest God.

For if they which are of the law be heirs, then is faith but vain, and the promise of none effect.

And he fainted not in the faith, nor yet considered his own body, which was now dead, even when he was almost a hundred years old: neither yet that Sara was past childbearing.

that he might declare the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had prepared unto glory:

according as it is written, "God hath given them the spirit of unquietness: eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, even unto this day."

If Abraham were justified by deeds, then hath he wherein to rejoice: but not with God.

that is to say, us which he called, not of the Jews only, but also of the gentiles.

And David saith, "Let their table be made a snare to take them withal, and an occasion to fall, and a reward unto them.

So then, if while the man liveth she couple herself with another man, she shall be counted a wedlock-breaker. But if the man be dead she is free from the law: so that she is no wedlock-breaker, though she couple herself with another man.

It is not written for him only, that it was reckoned to him for righteousness:

For it is God only which justifieth circumcision, which is of faith: and uncircumcision through faith.

But what saith the answer of God to him again? "I have reserved unto me seven thousand men which have not bowed their knees to Baal."

Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also the God of the gentiles? Yes, even of the Gentiles also.

But Isaiah crieth concerning Israel, "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet shall a remnant be saved.

For this cause I have been oft let to come unto you:
