RO-1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called [to be] an
apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
RO-1:2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy
scriptures,)
RO-1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made
of the seed of David according to the flesh;
RO-1:4 And declared [to be] the Son of God with power,
according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from
the dead:
RO-1:5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for
obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
RO-1:6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
RO-1:7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called [to be]
saints:Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord
Jesus Christ.
RO-1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all,
that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
RO-1:9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in
the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of
you always in my prayers;
RO-1:10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might
have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
RO-1:11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some
spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
RO-1:12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by
the mutual faith both of you and me.
RO-1:13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that
oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,)
that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other
Gentiles.
RO-1:14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians;
both to the wise, and to the unwise.
RO-1:15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the
gospel to you that are at Rome also.
RO-1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ:for it is
the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to
the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
RO-1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from
faith to faith:as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
RO-1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against
all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth
in unrighteousness;
RO-1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in
them; for God hath showed [it] unto them.
RO-1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of
the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that
are made, [even] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are
without excuse:
RO-1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him]
not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their
imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
RO-1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
RO-1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an
image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted
beasts, and creeping things.
RO-1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through
the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies
between themselves:
RO-1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped
and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed
for ever. Amen.
RO-1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:
for even their women did change the natural use into that which
is against nature:
RO-1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of
the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men
working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that
recompense of their error which was meet.
RO-1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their]
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those
things which are not convenient;
RO-1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder,
debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
RO-1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
RO-1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without
natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
RO-1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit
such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have
pleasure in them that do them.
*RO-2:1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou
art that judgest:for wherein thou judgest another, thou
condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.
RO-2:2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to
truth against them which commit such things.
RO-2:3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which
do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the
judgment of God?
RO-2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and
forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of
God leadeth thee to repentance?
RO-2:5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest
up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of
the righteous judgment of God;
RO-2:6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
RO-2:7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek
for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
RO-2:8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the
truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
RO-2:9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that
doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
RO-2:10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh
good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
RO-2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
RO-2:12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also
perish without law:and as many as have sinned in the law shall
be judged by the law;
RO-2:13 (For not the hearers of the law [are] just before God,
but the doers of the law shall be justified.
RO-2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by
nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the
law, are a law unto themselves:
RO-2:15 Which show the work of the law written in their hearts,
their conscience also bearing witness, and [their] thoughts the
mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
RO-2:16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by
Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
RO-2:17 Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law,
and makest thy boast of God,
RO-2:18 And knowest [his] will, and approvest the things that
are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
RO-2:19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the
blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
RO-2:20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which
hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
RO-2:21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou
not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost
thou steal?
RO-2:22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost
thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou
commit sacrilege?
RO-2:23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking
the law dishonourest thou God?
RO-2:24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles
through you, as it is written.
RO-2:25 For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law:
but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made
uncircumcision.
RO-2:26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness
of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for
circumcision?
RO-2:27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it
fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision
dost transgress the law?
RO-2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither
[is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
RO-2:29 But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and
circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in
the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.
*RO-3:1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit [is
there] of circumcision?
RO-3:2 Much every way:chiefly, because that unto them were
committed the oracles of God.
RO-3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief
make the faith of God without effect?
RO-3:4 God forbid:yea, let God be true, but every man a liar;
as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings,
and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
RO-3:5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of
God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who taketh
vengeance? (I speak as a man)
RO-3:6 God forbid:for then how shall God judge the world?
RO-3:7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my
lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
RO-3:8 And not [rather], (as we be slanderously reported, and
as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come?
whose damnation is just.
RO-3:9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise:for
we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all
under sin;
RO-3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
RO-3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that
seeketh after God.
RO-3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together
become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
RO-3:13 Their throat [is] an open sepulchre; with their tongues
they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:
