1Paul <3972>_, a servant <1401> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>_, called <2822> [to be] an apostle <652>_, separated <873> (5772) unto <1519> the gospel <2098> of God <2316>_,
2(Which <3739> he had promised afore <4279> (5662) by <1223> his <846> prophets <4396> in <1722> the holy <40> scriptures <1124>,)
3Concerning <4012> his <846> Son <5207> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our <2257> Lord <2962>_, which <3588> was made <1096> (5637) of <1537> the seed <4690> of David <1138> according <2596> to the flesh <4561>_;
4And declared <3724> (5685) [to be] the Son <5207> of God <2316> with <1722> power <1411>_, according <2596> to the spirit <4151> of holiness <42>_, by <1537> the resurrection <386> from the dead <3498>_: {declared: Gr. determined}
5By <1223> whom <3739> we have received <2983> (5627) grace <5485> and <2532> apostleship <651>_, for <1519> obedience <5218> to the faith <4102> among <1722> all <3956> nations <1484>_, for <5228> his <846> name <3686>_: {for obedience...: or, to the obedience of faith}
6Among <1722> whom <3739> are <2075> (5748) ye <5210> also <2532> the called <2822> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>_:
7To all <3956> that be <5607> (5752) in <1722> Rome <4516>_, beloved <27> of God <2316>_, called <2822> [to be] saints <40>_: Grace <5485> to you <5213> and <2532> peace <1515> from <575> God <2316> our <2257> Father <3962>_, and <2532> the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>_.
8First <4412> <3303>_, I thank <2168> (5719) my <3450> God <2316> through <1223> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> for <5228> you <5216> all <3956>_, that <3754> your <5216> faith <4102> is spoken <2605> (5743) of throughout <1722> the whole <3650> world <2889>_.
9For <1063> God <2316> is <2076> (5748) my <3450> witness <3144>_, whom <3739> I serve <3000> (5719) with <1722> my <3450> spirit <4151> in <1722> the gospel <2098> of his <846> Son <5207>_, that <5613> without ceasing <89> I make <4160> (5731) mention <3417> of you <5216> always <3842> in <1909> my <3450> prayers <4335>_; {with: or, in}
10Making request <1189> (5740)_, if by any means <1513> now <2235> at length <4218> I might have a prosperous journey <2137> (5701) by <1722> the will <2307> of God <2316> to come <2064> (5629) unto <4314> you <5209>_.
11For <1063> I long <1971> (5719) to see <1492> (5629) you <5209>_, that <2443> I may impart <3330> (5632) unto you <5213> some <5100> spiritual <4152> gift <5486>_, to the end <1519> ye <5209> may be established <4741> (5683)_;
12That <1161> <5124> is <2076> (5748)_, that I may be comforted together <4837> (5683) with <1722> you <5213> by <1223> <1722> the mutual <240> faith <4102> both <5037> of you <5216> and <2532> me <1700>_. {with: or, in}
13Now <1161> I would <2309> (5719) not <3756> have <50> (0) you <5209> ignorant <50> (5721)_, brethren <80>_, that <3754> oftentimes <4178> I purposed <4388> (5639) to come <2064> (5629) unto <4314> you <5209>_, (but <2532> was let <2967> (5681) hitherto <891> <1204>,) that <2443> I might have <2192> (5632) some <5100> fruit <2590> among <1722> you <5213> also <2532>_, even as <2531> <2532> among <1722> other <3062> Gentiles <1484>_. {among: or, in}
14I am <1510> (5748) debtor <3781> both <5037> to the Greeks <1672>_, and <2532> to the Barbarians <915>_; both <5037> to the wise <4680>_, and <2532> to the unwise <453>_.
15So <3779>_, as much as <2596> in me is <1691>_, I am ready <4289> to preach the gospel <2097> (5670) to you <5213> that are at <1722> Rome <4516> also <2532>_.
16For <1063> I am <1870> (0) not <3756> ashamed <1870> (5736) of the gospel <2098> of Christ <5547>_: for <1063> it is <2076> (5748) the power <1411> of God <2316> unto <1519> salvation <4991> to every one <3956> that believeth <4100> (5723)_; to the Jew <2453> first <4412>_, and <5037> also <2532> to the Greek <1672>_.
17For <1063> therein <1722> <846> is <601> (0) the righteousness <1343> of God <2316> revealed <601> (5743) from <1537> faith <4102> to <1519> faith <4102>_: as <2531> it is written <1125> (5769)_, <1161> The just <1342> shall live <2198> (5695) by <1537> faith <4102>_.
18For <1063> the wrath <3709> of God <2316> is revealed <601> (5743) from <575> heaven <3772> against <1909> all <3956> ungodliness <763> and <2532> unrighteousness <93> of men <444>_, who hold <2722> (5723) the truth <225> in <1722> unrighteousness <93>_;
19Because <1360> that which may be known <1110> of God <2316> is <2076> (5748) manifest <5318> in <1722> them <846>_; for <1063> God <2316> hath shewed <5319> (5656) [it] unto them <846>_. {in them: or, to them}
20For <1063> the invisible things <517> of him <846> from <575> the creation <2937> of the world <2889> are clearly seen <2529> (5743)_, being understood <3539> (5746) by the things that are made <4161>_, [even] <5037> his <846> eternal <126> power <1411> and <2532> Godhead <2305>_; so <1519> that they <846> are <1511> (5750) without excuse <379>_: {so...: or, that they may be}
21Because <1360> that, when they knew <1097> (5631) God <2316>_, they glorified <1392> (5656) [him] not <3756> as <5613> God <2316>_, neither <2228> were thankful <2168> (5656)_; but <235> became vain <3154> (5681) in <1722> their <846> imaginations <1261>_, and <2532> their <846> foolish <801> heart <2588> was darkened <4654> (5681)_.
22Professing themselves <5335> (5723) to be <1511> (5750) wise <4680>_, they became fools <3471> (5681)_,
23And <2532> changed <236> (5656) the glory <1391> of the uncorruptible <862> God <2316> into <1722> an image <1504> made like <3667> to corruptible <5349> man <444>_, and <2532> to birds <4071>_, and <2532> fourfooted beasts <5074>_, and <2532> creeping things <2062>_.
24Wherefore <1352> God <2316> also <2532> gave <3860> (0) them <846> up <3860> (5656) to <1519> uncleanness <167> through <1722> the lusts <1939> of their own <846> hearts <2588>_, to dishonour <818> (5729) their own <846> bodies <4983> between <1722> themselves <1438>_:
25Who <3748> changed <3337> (5656) the truth <225> of God <2316> into <1722> a lie <5579>_, and <2532> worshipped <4573> (5662) and <2532> served <3000> (5656) the creature <2937> more than <3844> the Creator <2936> (5660)_, who <3739> is <2076> (5748) blessed <2128> for <1519> ever <165>_. Amen <281>_. {more: or, rather}
26For <1223> this <5124> cause God <2316> gave <3860> (0) them <846> up <3860> (5656) unto <1519> vile <819> affections <3806>_: for <1063> even <5037> their <846> women <2338> did change <3337> (5656) the natural <5446> use <5540> into <1519> that which is against <3844> nature <5449>_:
27And <5037> likewise <3668> also <2532> the men <730>_, leaving <863> (5631) the natural <5446> use <5540> of the woman <2338>_, burned <1572> (5681) in <1722> their <846> lust <3715> one toward another <1519> <240>_; men <730> with <1722> men <730> working <2716> (5740) that which is unseemly <808>_, and <2532> receiving <618> (5723) in <1722> themselves <1438> that recompence <489> of their <846> error <4106> which <3739> was meet <1163> (5713)_.
28And <2532> even as <2531> they did <1381> (0) not <3756> like <1381> (5656) to retain <2192> (5721) God <2316> in <1722> [their] knowledge <1922>_, God <2316> gave <3860> (0) them <846> over <3860> (5656) to <1519> a reprobate <96> mind <3563>_, to do <4160> (5721) those things which are <2520> (0) not <3361> convenient <2520> (5723)_; {to retain: or, to acknowledge} {a reprobate...: or, a mind void of judgment or, an unapproving mind}
29Being filled with <4137> (5772) all <3956> unrighteousness <93>_, fornication <4202>_, wickedness <4189>_, covetousness <4124>_, maliciousness <2549>_; full <3324> of envy <5355>_, murder <5408>_, debate <2054>_, deceit <1388>_, malignity <2550>_; whisperers <5588>_,
30Backbiters <2637>_, haters of God <2319>_, despiteful <5197>_, proud <5244>_, boasters <213>_, inventors <2182> of evil things <2556>_, disobedient <545> to parents <1118>_,
31Without understanding <801>_, covenantbreakers <802>_, without natural affection <794>_, implacable <786>_, unmerciful <415>_: {without natural...: or unsociable}
32Who <3748> knowing <1921> (5631) the judgment <1345> of God <2316>_, that <3754> they which commit <4238> (5723) such things <5108> are <1526> (5748) worthy <514> of death <2288>_, not <3756> only <3440> do <4160> (5719) the same <846>_, but <235> <2532> have pleasure <4909> (5719) in them that do <4238> (5723) them. {have...: or, consent with}
