PAUL, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart to the gospel of God,??2 which he promised by his prophets in the Holy Scriptures,??3 concerning his Son born of the posterity of David as to the flesh,

Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

who was of the seed of David, according to the flesh, But declared the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead,

Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:

and so that the Gentiles [also] may honor God for His mercy, as it is written [Psa. 18:49], "Therefore, I will praise you among the Gentiles and sing to your name." [Note: Paul here accommodates the words of King David by applying them to Jews participating with Gentiles in praising God as part of the one body].
