concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord; made from the seed of David after the flesh,

definitively marked out as the Son of God by miracle, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead:

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the Gospel of his Son, how incessantly I make mention of you,

For from the creation of the world his invisible perfections, discoverable in the works that are made, are clearly seen, even his eternal power and deity; so that they are inexcusable:

What then? have we pre-eminence? Not at all: for we have before proved that both the Jews and Greeks are all under sin;

Wherefore by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified before God: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

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

And he received the sign of circumcision, as a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had when uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all those who believe, though uncircumcised; that to them also the righteousness might be imputed:

For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God by the death of his son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

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.

For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed if there be no law.

But the law was introduced, that the offence might be more abundant. But where sin had abounded, there hath grace abounded more exceedingly:

that as sin had reigned by death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto life eternal by Jesus Christ our Lord.

THAT then shall we say? Shall we abide in sin, that grace may abound?

God forbid. We who are dead to sin, how shall we still live therein?

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.

For he that is dead is discharged from sin.

For in that he died, for sin he died once: but in that he liveth, he liveth to God.

So also do ye account yourselves dead indeed to sin, but living unto God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Let not therefore sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in the passions thereof.

Neither present your members as weapons of unrighteousness for sin: but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as weapons of righteousness for God.

For sin shall not hold dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

Do ye not know, that to whomsoever ye present yourselves servants to obey, ye are his servants to whom ye obey; if of sin unto death, or of obedience, unto righteousness?

But thanks be to God, that though ye were the servants of sin, ye have obeyed from the heart the model of doctrine into which ye were delivered.

Emancipated then from sin, ye became servants to righteousness.

For when ye were the slaves of sin, ye were free from righteousness.

But now being set at liberty from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and at the end life eternal.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is life eternal in Jesus Christ our Lord.

What then shall we say? Is the law sin? God forbid. Yea, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not even known concupiscence, unless the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.

But sin, seizing the opportunity by the law, wrought in me all concupiscence. For without the law sin is dead.

For though I lived without the law formerly; yet when the commandment came, sin revived, but I died.

For sin, seizing the occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and thereby slew me.

Did then that which is good become fatal to me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin by that which was good [in itself], was the cause of death to me; that sin through the commandment might become transcendantly sinful.

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

Now then no more I do this, but sin dwelling in me.

If then I do that which I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

but I see another law in my members, militating against the law in my mind, and making me captive to the law of sin which is in my members.

I give thanks to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Well then, I myself with my mind am servant to the law of God; but in my flesh to the law of sin.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath liberated me from the law of sin and of death.

For that which was impossible by the law, inasmuch as it was impotent through the flesh, God having sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in that flesh:

But if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead on account of sin; but the Spirit is alive through righteousness.

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?

For whom he foreknew, he predestinated also to a conformity with the image of his Son, that he might be the first-begotten among many brethren.

He who even spared not his own Son, but freely delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also, together with him, freely give us all things?

For the word of promise is this, At that time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.

as it is written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence: and every one that believeth in him shall not be confounded."

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, "The Deliverer shall go forth out of Sion, and shalt turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

But he that maketh a difference between meats, if he eat is condemned, because he doth it not by faith: for every thing which is not of faith, is sin.
