For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all impiety and unrighteousness of men, holding back the truth in unrighteousness.

and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of a corruptible man, and of birds, and of quadrupeds, and of reptiles.

and likewise the men also, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lewdness one towards another; men with men committing indecency, and receiving in themselves the recompence of their delusion, which was meet.

THEREFORE thou art inexcusable, O man, even every one that judgeth: for in the very thing wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest art living in the practices of the same things.

For thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest those who do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

who will recompense to every man according to his works;

tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that doeth wickedness, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek.

But glory and honour and peace be to every man who doeth that which is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek:

in the day when God shall judge the hidden things of men, according to my gospel by Jesus Christ.

Thou therefore who teachest another, dost thou not teach thyself? thou that proclaimest aloud that a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

But he is a Jew who is such inwardly; and circumcision is of the heart, in spirit, not in letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.

God forbid: but let God be true, though every man were a liar; as it is written, "That thou mayest be acknowledged just in thy sayings, and overcome when thou art judged."

We conclude therefore that by faith a man is justified, without works of law.

As David also describeth the blessedness of that man, to whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will in nowise impute sin."

For scarcely for a righteous person will any one die: though for a good man perhaps some one might even dare to die.

Therefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death; even so death passed into all men through him, in whom all have sinned.

But not as the transgression, so also [is] the gift. For if by the transgression of one the many became dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is in that one man, Christ Jesus, hath abounded unto many.

Well then, as by the offence of one, [judgment issued] against all men unto condemnation; so also by the righteousness of one, [the gift came] to all men for justification unto life.

For as by the disobedience of one man the many were constituted sinners; so also by the obedience of one shall the many be constituted righteous.

knowing this, that our old man hath been crucified with him, that the body of sin might be abolished, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

She shall therefore certainly be counted an adulteress, if, her husband being alive, she be for another man: but if her husband is dead, she is free from the law; so that she shall be no adulteress, though married to another husband.

For I am delighted with the law of God, as respecting the inward man:

O wretched man, I! who shall pluck me from the body of this death?

But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwelleth in you. But if any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

For by hope we have been saved: now hope seen is not hope; for that which any man seeth how doth he yet hope for?

Nay but, O man, who art thou that disputest against God? Shall the thing fashioned say to him that fashioned it, Why hast thou made me thus?

For Moses describeth the righteousness which is by the law, "That the man who doeth these things shall live by them."

But what saith the oracle of God to him? "I have left to myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal."

Render to no man evil for evil. Be provident of things laudable in the sight of all men.

If possible, as far as you can, be at peace with all men.

Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

One man indeed thinketh he may eat all meats; another, who is weak, eateth vegetables.

Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? To his own master he standeth or falleth; but he shall be established: for God is able to establish him.

One man judgeth one day different from another day: another judgeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

For he who in these things is the servant of Christ, is acceptable to God, and approved of men.

For the sake of meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are clean; but it is an evil thing for a man to eat, giving offence.

Hast thou faith, exercise it before God within thyself. Blessed is the man who condemneth not himself in that which he alloweth.

But I have in such manner endeavoured to preach the gospel, not where Christ's name had been heard, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

Salute Rufus elect in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

For your obedience is gone forth in report to all men. I rejoice therefore on your account: but I wish you to be wise indeed unto good, but harmless respecting evil.

Gaius mine host, and of the whole church, saluteth you. Erastus the chamberlain of the city saluteth you, and Quartus a brother.
