Art persuaded, moreover, that, thou thyself, art - a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness,

Far be it! But let, God, prove to be, true, albeit, every man, be false! Even as it is written - That thou mightest be declared righteous in thy words, and overcome when thou art in judgment.

And why not, according as we are injuriously charged, and according as some affirm that we say, Let us do the bad things, that the good ones may come? whose sentence is, just.

In respect, however, of the promise of God, he was not led to hesitate by unbelief, but received power by his faith, giving glory unto God,

Having, therefore, been declared righteous by faith, let us have, peace, towards God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, -

Through whom also we have had, our introduction, by our faithinto this favour wherein we stand; and let us boast in hope of the glory of God.

And, not only so, but let us boast also in our tribulations; knowing that, our tribulation, worketh out endurance.

Let not sin, therefore, reign in your death-doomed body, that ye should be obedient to its covetings;

For, as many as by God's Spirit are being led, the same, are God's sons, -

What, then, shall we say? That, they of the nations, who were not in pursuit of righteousness, have laid hold of righteousness, - a righteousness, however, which is by faith;

And, David, saith - Let their table be turned into a snare, and into gin, and into a trap, and into a recompense unto them,

Now, having gifts of favour, according to the favour given unto us, differing - whether prophesying, let us use it according to the proportion of our faith,

Or ministering, use it in our ministering, or he that teacheth, let him use his gift in his teaching,

Or he that exhorteth, in his exhorting, he that imparteth, let it be with liberality, he that taketh a lead, with diligence, he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

The same thing, one to another regarding, - not the lofty things regarding, but, by the lowly, being led along. Be not getting presumptuous in your own opinion:

Let, every soul, unto protecting authorities be in subjection; for there is no authority save by God, and, they that are in being, have by God been arranged, -

The night, is far spent and, the day, hath drawn near; let us, then, cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light, -

As in daytime, becomingly let us walk: not in revellings and in drunken bouts, not in chamberings and in wanton deeds, not in strife and envy; -

Let not, him that eateth, despise him that eateth not, and let not, him that eateth not, judge him that eateth; for, God, hath received him.

For, one, indeed esteemeth one day beyond another, whereas, another, esteemeth every day: - let, each one, in his own mind be fully persuaded.

No longer, then, upon one another, let us be sitting in judgment, but, this, judge ye rather - not to be putting a cause of stumbling before your brother or an occasion to fall.

Hence, then, the things pertaining to peace, let us pursue, and the things which belong to the upbuilding one of another:

Let, each one of us, unto his neighbour give pleasure - for what is good unto upbuilding;

And again, - Be giving praise all ye nations unto the Lord, and let all the peoples repeat his praise;

Who, indeed, for my life, their own neck laid down, - unto whom - not, I only, give thanks, but also all the assemblies of the nations;
