First, I return thanks to my God by Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is announced in the whole world.

For my witness is God, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of his Son, so that continually I make mention of you, always supplicating in my prayers;

And this is, to be comforted together in you by the faith in one another both of you and of me.

Both to Greeks, and foreigners; both to wise and unwise, I am debtor.

For I am not ashamed of the good news of Christ: for it is the power of God to salvation to all believing; both to the Jew first, and the Greek.

For the justice of God in it is revealed from faith to faith: as has been written, And the just shall live by faith.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all profanation and injustice of men, of those detaining the truth in injustice;

Wherefore that known of God is manifest in them; for God manifested to them.

Wherefore having known God, not as God did they honour or return thanks; but were rendered vain in their conversations, and their heart without understanding was darkened.

Declaring themselves to be wise, they were fools,

Who changed the truth of God into a falsehood, and reverenced and served the creation above him creating, who is praised forever. Amen.

Therefore God delivered them to the suffering of ignominy: for also their females changed the natural use into that against generation:

Likewise also males, leaving the natural use of the female, were set on fire in their longing for one another; males with males working deformity, and the retribution which was needed receiving in themselves for their erring.

And as they chose not to have God in knowledge, God delivered them to an adulterated purpose, to do things not fitting;

And we know that the judgment of God is according to truth upon them doing such things.

For there is no distinction of persons with God.

For as many as sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

For the name of God by you is blasphemed in the nations, as it has been written.

For he in appearance, is not a Jew; neither circumcision, in appearance in the flesh:

But he in concealment, a Jew; and circumcision of the heart, in spirit, not in letter; whose approbation not of man, but of God.

It may not be: and let God be true, and every man a liar; as has been written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, and mightest conquer in thy being judged.

And if our injustice shall recommend the justice of God, what shall we say God not unjust bringing in anger? (I speak as man)

For if the truth of God in my lying abounded to his glory; why yet am I judged as sinful?

And not, (as we are defamed, and some have declared us to say,) That we should do evil things, that good things might come: whose judgment is just.

As has been written, That there is no just one, not one:

There is none understanding, there is none seeking God.

All have bent aside, together have they become unprofitable: there is none doing good, there is not even one.

Whose mouth is full of cursing and harshness:

The fear of God is not before their eyes.

And the justice of God by faith of Jesus Christ to all and upon all believing: for there is no distinction:

Being justified as a gift by his grace by the redemption which is in Christ Jesus:

And to him working, the reward is not reckoned according to favor, but according to debt.

And to him not working, and believing upon him justifying the impious, his faith is reckoned for justice.

As also David speaks the happiness of the man, to whom God reckons justice without works,

Happy they whose iniquities were remitted, and whose sins were covered.

For the law works wrath: for where is no law, no transgression.

Therefore of faith, that according to grace; the promise to be firm to all the seed; not to that of the law only, but also to that of the faith of Abraham; who is father of us all,

(As it has been written, That have set thee father of many nations,) over against him who believed God, making alive the dead, and calling things not being as being.

And made perfectly certain that, what was promised, he is able to do.

But also for us, to whom it is about to be reckoned, to them believing upon him having raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

And hope shames not; for the love of God has been poured in our hearts by the Holy Spirit given us.

And God recommends his own love to us, that we yet being sinful, Christ died for us.

Therefore, as by one man sin came into the world, and by sin death; and so death passed upon all men, in that all have sinned:

(For until the law sin was in the world: and sin is not charged, being no law.

But death reigned from Adam to Moses, and upon them not having sinned upon the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is the type of him about to be.

But not as the fall, so also the favor. For if for the fall of one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift in grace, of one man, Jesus Christ, has abounded to many.

And not as by one having sinned, the gift: for truly the judgment of one to condemnation, but the favor of many falls to justification.

Therefore as by the fall of one for all men to condemnation; so also by the justification of one for all men to justification of life.

For as by one man's disobedience many were constituted sinful, so also by the obedience of one shall many be constituted just.

That as sin reigned in death, so grace might reign by justice to life eternal, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Or know ye not, that as many of us as were immersed in Christ Jesus, we were immersed into his death?

Therefore were we buried with him by immersion into death: that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so also we should walk in newness of life.

Knowing this, that our old man was crucified together, that the body of sin might be left inactive, for us no more to serve sin.

Neither present ye your members weapons of injustice to sin: but present yourselves to God, as living from the dead, and your members weapons of justice to God.

(I speak as man through the weakness of your flesh:) for as ye presented your members to uncleanness and iniquity; so now present ye your members servants to justice for consecration.

Know ye not brethren, (for I speak to them knowing law,) that law rules over man as much time as he lives?

For a married woman is bound by the law to a living husband; and if the husband die, she is left inactive from the law of the husband.

Wherefore, the husband living, she shall be called adulteress if she be to another man: but if the man die, she is free from the law; not to be an adulteress, being to another man.

For we know that the law is spiritual: and I am fleshly, sold under sin.

And if what I would not this I do, I consent to the law that it is good.

For I know that in me dwells no good, (that is, in my flesh:) for to will lies near me; but to work good I find not.

That the justification of the law be filled up in us, not walking according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

Wherefore the thought of the flesh enmity to God: for it is not subject to the law of God, for it cannot be.

But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwell in you. And if any have not the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God.

For ye have not received the Spirit of servitude again for fear; but have received the Spirit of adoption as a son, in which we cry, Abba, Father.

For I reckon that the sufferings of the time now not worthy of the glory about to be revealed in us.

And not only, but also they having the first fruits of the Spirit, and we ourselves groan in ourselves, waiting for the adoption as a son, the redemption of our body.

For by hope were we saved: but hope being seen is not hope: for what any one sees, why does he also hope?

And likewise also the Spirit takes hold together, and assists our weaknesses: for what we would pray for as we ought, we know not, but the Spirit itself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings.

What then shall we say to these? if God with us, who against us?

Who truly spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, and how not with him will he freely give us all?

Who, he condemning Christ having died, and rather also raised again, who is at the right hand of God, and who intercedes for us.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? pressure, or perplexity, or expulsion, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

As has been written, That for thy sake we are killed the whole day; we were reckoned as sheep for slaughter.

But in all these we obtain a complete victory by him having loved us.

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creation, shall be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

That there is great grief to me and continued pain in my heart.

Who are Israelites; whose the adoption as a son, and the glory, and covenants, and legislation, and divine worship, and solemn promises;

Whose the fathers, and from whom Christ according to the flesh, who being God over all, praised forever. Amen.

And not as that the word of God has fallen through. For not they all of Israel, they which of Israel:

That is, The children of the flesh, these not the children of God: but the children of the solemn promise are reckoned for seed.

As has been written, Jacob have I loved, and Esau have I hated.

What then shall we say Is injustice with God? It may not be.

Whom he also called us, not only from the Jews, but also of the nations?

As also he says in Hosea, I will call not my people my people; and the not loved, loved.

And Esaias cries for Israel, If the number of the sons of Israel as the sand of the sea, the remnant shall be saved:

And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us seed, as Sodom had we been, and as Gomorrha had we been likened.

Wherefore? Because not of faith, but as of the works of the law. For they stumbled at the stumblingstone;

As has been written, Behold I set in Zion a stone of stumbling and rock of offence: and every one believing on him shall not be ashamed.

Brethren, truly my heart's delight and prayer to God for Israel is for salvation.

And the justice of faith says thus, Thou shouldest not say in thy heart, Who shall go up to heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down:)

Or, Who shall go down to the abyss? (that is, to bring up Christ from the dead.)

But what does it say? The word is near thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we proclaim;

For with the heart is believed for justice: and with the mouth is confessed for salvation.

For no distinction is of the Jew and also of the Greek: for the same Lord of all being rich to all calling upon him.

And how shall they proclaim, except they be sent? as has been written, How beautiful the feet of them announcing good news, peace, of them announcing good things!

And Esaias is very confident, and says, I was found of them not seeking me; I was manifested to them not asking for me.

And if to grace, it is no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. And if of works, it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

(As has been written, God gave them the spirit of mortal pain, eyes not to see, and earn not to hear;) even to this day.
