Romans 1:1-16 ▼

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, a called apostle having been set apart for the gospel of God,

2 which He promised beforehand through His prophets in Holy Scriptures,

3 concerning His Son, the One having come of the seed of David according to the flesh,

4 the One having been determined the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord,

5 through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the Gentiles on behalf of His name,

6 among whom are you? also, called of Jesus Christ.

7 To all those being in Rome beloved of God, called saints: Grace to you? and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

9 For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of His Son, is my witness how unceasingly I make remembrance of you?,

10 always upon my prayers, imploring if somehow now at last by the will of God I will make a prosperous journey to come to you?.

11 For I long to see you? so that I may impart some spiritual gift to you?, to your? being strengthened,

12 and, that is, to be encouraged together among you? through the faith among one another, both of you? and of me.

13 Now I do not want you? to be ignorant, brothers, that many times I purposed to come to you?, and was prevented until the present, so that I might have some fruit among you? also, even as among the other Gentiles.

14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to wise and to foolish.

15 Thus, as to me, I am ready to preach the gospel also to you? who are in Rome.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone believing—both to Jew first, and to Greek.
