9 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 God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you God, whom I serve in my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you
10 always in my prayers entreating that haply now at last I may have a prosperous journey by the will of God, to come to you. always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God’s will I may now at last succeed in coming to you. in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God’s will the way may be opened for me to come to you.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, in order that you may be established; For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you— I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—
12 and that so I may be comforted together with you, by the mutual faith both of you and of me. that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith, both yours and mine. that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
13 But I would not that ye should be unacquainted, brethren, that oftentimes I have been purposing to come to you (and have been prevented until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other Gentile nations. I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles. I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that I planned many times to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
14 Both to the Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the ignorant am I a debtor. I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish. I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.
15 So, as far as is in my power, I am desirous to preach the Gospel to you that are at Rome also. So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God for salvation to every one who believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.
17 For the righteousness of God by faith is therein revealed for belief; as it is written, ?Now the just by faith shall live.?

19 Because that which is capable of being known relative to God, is evident among them; for God hath manifested it to them. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
20 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: For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
21 because though they knew there was a God, they glorified him not as God, nor gave him thanks, but became triflers in their disputations, and their stupid heart was darkened. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Affecting to be sophists, they turned idiots, Claiming to be wise, they became fools, Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools
23 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 exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Wherefore God abandoned them, through the lusts of their own hearts, unto impurity, to dishonour their own bodies by themselves: Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.
25 who perverted the truth of God by falsehood, and worshipped and paid divine honours to the thing created instead of the Creator, who is blessed for evermore. Amen. because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up to dishonourable passions. For even their women did change the natural use into that which was contrary to nature; For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.
27 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. and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 And since they thought not fit to hold the Deity in acknowledgment, God abandoned them to a reprobate mind, to practise deeds unbecoming; And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.
29 replete with all injustice, whoredom, wickedness, covetousness, villany; full of envy, murder, contention, deceit, evil habits; whisperers, They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips,
30 backbiters, God-haters, contumelious, insolent, boasters, inventors of wicked practices, disobedient to parents, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
31 unintelligent, unfaithful to engagements, unnatural, implacable, unmerciful: foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy.
32 who, though they know the righteous judgment of God, that they who live in such practices are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also find pleasure in the company of those who live in these practices. Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
