Romans 1:1-10 ▼

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God—

2 the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures,

3 regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh,

4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

5 Through Him and on behalf of His name, we received grace and apostleship to call all those among the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.

6 And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

7 To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed all over the world.

9 God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you

10 in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you.
