Chapter 1
1Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God—
(Hebrew unavailable)
2the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures,
(Hebrew unavailable)
3regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh,
(Hebrew unavailable)
4and 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.
(Hebrew unavailable)
5Through 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.
(Hebrew unavailable)
6And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.
(Hebrew unavailable)
7To 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.
(Hebrew unavailable)
8First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed all over the world.
(Hebrew unavailable)
9God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you
(Hebrew unavailable)
10in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you.
(Hebrew unavailable)
11For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,
(Hebrew unavailable)
12that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
(Hebrew unavailable)
13I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, how often I planned to come to you (but have been prevented from visiting until now), in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
(Hebrew unavailable)
14I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.
(Hebrew unavailable)
15That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
(Hebrew unavailable)
16I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.
(Hebrew unavailable)
17For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.
(Hebrew unavailable)
19For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
(Hebrew unavailable)
20For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse.
(Hebrew unavailable)
21For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts.
(Hebrew unavailable)
22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools,
(Hebrew unavailable)
23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images of mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
(Hebrew unavailable)
24Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another.
(Hebrew unavailable)
25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! Amen.
(Hebrew unavailable)
26For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
(Hebrew unavailable)
27Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
(Hebrew unavailable)
28Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.
(Hebrew unavailable)
29They 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,
(Hebrew unavailable)
30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful. They invent new forms of evil; they disobey their parents.
(Hebrew unavailable)
31They are senseless, faithless, heartless, merciless.
(Hebrew unavailable)
32Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them.
(Hebrew unavailable)
