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

and turned the glory of the immortal God, unto the similitude of the image: of mortal man, and of birds, and four footed beasts and of serpents.

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.

Which men, though they knew the righteousness of God, how that they which such things commit are worthy of death: yet not only do the same, but also have pleasure in them that do them.

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.

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?

which will reward every man according to his deeds,

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

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

at the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, by Jesus Christ according to my Gospel.

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

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

But he is a Jew which is hid within, and the circumcision of the heart is the true circumcision, which is in the spirit, and not in the letter: whose praise is not of men but of God.

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."

If our unrighteousness make the righteousness of God more excellent: what shall we say? Is God unrighteous which taketh vengeance? I speak after the manner of men.

And say not rather - as men evil-speak of us, and as some affirm that we say - "Let us do evil, that good may come thereof." Whose damnation is just.

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

Even as David describeth the blessedfulness of the man, unto whom God ascribeth righteousness without deeds,

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

Yet scarce will any man die for a righteous man. Peradventure for a good man durst a man die.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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 the woman which is in subjection to a man, is bound by the law to the man, as long as he liveth. If the man be dead, she is loosed from the law of the man.

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.

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 delight in the law of God, as concerning the inner man.

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

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.

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.

For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen is no hope. For how can a man hope for that which he seeth?

Neither was it so with her only: but also when Rebecca was with child by one, I mean by our father Isaac,

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

But O man what art thou, which disputest with God? Shall the work say to the workman, "Why hast thou made me on this fashion?"

What shall we say then? We say that the gentiles which followed not righteousness, have overtaken righteousness: I mean, the righteousness which cometh of faith.

As it is written, "Behold I put in Zion a stumbling stone, and a rock which shall make men fall. And none that believe on him, shall be ashamed."

Moses describeth the righteousness which cometh of the law, how that the man which doth the things of the law shall live therein.

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

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."

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

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.

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

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;

Let him that teacheth take heed to his doctrine; Let him that exhorteth give attendance to his exhortation; If any man give, let him do it with singleness; Let him that ruleth do it with diligence; If any man show mercy let him do it with cheerfulness.

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

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

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."

Give to every man therefore his duty: Tribute to whom tribute belongeth: Custom to whom custom is due: fear to whom fear belongeth: Honour to whom honour pertaineth.

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

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.

What art thou that judgest another man's servant? Whether he stand or fall, that pertaineth unto his master. Yea, he shall stand. For God is able to make him stand.

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

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.

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

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.

Let every man please his neighbor unto his wealth and edifying.

So have I enforced myself to preach the gospel: not where Christ was named, lest I should have built on another man's foundation,

that ye receive her in the Lord as it becometh saints, and that ye assist her, in whatsoever business she needeth of your aid. For she hath succored many, and mine own self also.

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

for your obedience extendeth to all men. I am glad no doubt of you. But yet I would have you wise unto that which is good. And to be innocent as concerning evil.

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.
