1:1 | Paul a seruant of Iesus Christ, called to bee an Apostle, separated vnto the Gospel of God, |
1:2 | (Which he had promised afore by his Prophets in the holy Scriptures,) |
1:3 | Concerning his Sonne Iesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of Dauid according to the flesh, |
1:4 | And declared to be the Sonne of God, with power, according to the Spirit of holinesse, by the resurrection from the dead. |
1:5 | By whom we haue receiued grace and Apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for his Name, |
1:6 | Among whom are ye also the called of Iesus Christ. |
1:7 | To all that be in Rome, beloued of God, called to be Saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Iesus Christ. |
1:8 | First I thanke my God through Iesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. |
1:9 | For God is my witnesse, whom I serue with my spirit in the Gospel of his Sonne, that without ceasing I make mention of you, alwayes in my prayers, |
1:10 | Making request, (if by any meanes now at length I might haue a prosperous iourney by the will of God) to come vnto you. |
1:11 | For I long to see you, that I may impart vnto you some spirituall gift, to the end you may be established, |
1:12 | That is, that I may be comforted together with you, by the mutual faith both of you and me. |
1:13 | Now I would not haue you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come vnto you, (but was let hitherto) that I might haue some fruit among you also, euen as among other Gentiles. |
1:14 | I am debter both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians, both to the wise, and to the vnwise. |
1:15 | So, as much as in mee is, I am ready to preach the Gospel to you that are at Rome also. |
1:16 | For I am not ashamed of the Gopel of Christ: for it is the power of God vnto saluation, to euery one that beleeueth, to the Iew first, and also to the Greeke. |
1:17 | For therein is the righteousnesse of God reueiled from faith to faith: as it is written, The iust shall liue by faith. |
1:18 | For the wrath of God is reueiled from heauen against all vngodlinesse, and vnrighteousnesse of men, who hold the trueth in vnrighteousnesse. |
1:19 | Because that which may bee knowen of God, is manifest in them, for God hath shewed it vnto them. |
1:20 | For the inuisible things of him from the Creation of the world, are clearely seene, being vnderstood by the things that are made, euen his eternall Power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse: |
1:21 | Because that when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankefull, but became vaine in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened: |
1:22 | Professing themselues to be wise, they became fooles: |
1:23 | And changed the glory of the vncorruptible God, into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birdes, and foure footed beasts, and creeping things: |
1:24 | Wherefore God also gaue them vp to vncleannesse, through the lusts of their owne hearts, to dishonour their owne bodies betweene themselues: |
1:25 | Who changed the trueth of God into a lye, and worshipped and serued the creature more then the Creatour, who is blessed for euer. Amen. |
1:26 | For this cause God gaue them vp vnto vile affections: for euen their women did change the naturall vse into that which is against nature: |
1:27 | And likewise also the men, leauing the naturall vse of the woman, burned in their lust one towards another, men with men working that which is vnseemely, and receiuing in themselues that recompense of their errour which was meet. |
1:28 | And euen as they did not like to retaine God in their knowledge, God gaue them ouer to a reprobate minde, to doe those things which are not conuenient: |
1:29 | Being filled with all vnrighteousnes, fornication, wickednesse, couetousnes, maliciousnes, full of enuie, murther, debate, deceit, malignitie, whisperers, |
1:30 | Backbiters, haters of God, despitefull, proude, boasters, inuenters of euill things, disobedient to parents; |
1:31 | Without vnderstanding, couenant breakers, without naturall affection, implacable, vnmercifull; |
1:32 | Who knowing the iudgement of God, (that they which commit such things, are worthy of death) not onely do the same, but haue pleasure in them that doe them. |
1:1 | Paul a seruant of Iesus Christ called to be an Apostle, put apart to preache the Gospel of God, |
1:2 | (Which he had promised afore by his Prophetes in the holy Scriptures) |
1:3 | Concerning his Sonne Iesus Christ our Lord (which was made of the seede of Dauid according to the flesh, |
1:4 | And declared mightily to be the Sonne of God, touching the Spirit of sanctification by the resurrection from the dead) |
1:5 | By whom we haue receiued grace and Apostleship (that obedience might be giuen vnto ye faith) for his Name among al ye Gentiles, |
1:6 | Among whom ye be also the called of Iesus Christ: |
1:7 | To all you that be at Rome beloued of God, called to be Saints: Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ. |
1:8 | First I thanke my God through Iesus Christ for you all, because your faith is published throughout the whole world. |
1:9 | For God is my witnesse (whom I serue in my spirit in the Gospel of his Sonne) that without ceasing I make mention of you |
1:10 | Alwayes in my prayers, beseeching that by some meanes, one time or other I might haue a prosperous iourney by the will of God, to come vnto you. |
1:11 | For I long to see you, that I might bestowe among you some spirituall gift, that you might be strengthened: |
1:12 | That is, that I might be comforted together with you, through our mutuall faith, both yours and mine. |
1:13 | Now my brethren, I would that ye should not be ignorant, how that I haue oftentimes purposed to come vnto you (but haue bene let hitherto) that I might haue some fruite also among you, as I haue among the other Gentiles. |
1:14 | I am detter both to the Grecians, and to the Barbarians, both to the wise men and vnto the vnwise. |
1:15 | Therefore, as much as in me is, I am readie to preach ye Gospel to you also that are at Rome. |
1:16 | For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God vnto saluation to euery one that beleeueth, to the Iewe first, and also to the Grecian. |
1:17 | For by it the righteousnesse of God is reueiled from faith to faith: as it is written, The iust shall liue by faith. |
1:18 | For the wrath of God is reueiled from heauen against all vngodlinesse, and vnrighteousnesse of men, which withhold the trueth in vnrighteousnesse. |
1:19 | Forasmuch as that, which may be knowe of God, is manifest in them: for God hath shewed it vnto them. |
1:20 | For the inuisible things of him, that is, his eternal power and Godhead, are seene by ye creation of the worlde, being considered in his workes, to the intent that they should be without excuse: |
1:21 | Because that when they knewe God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankefull, but became vaine in their thoughtes, and their foolish heart was full of darkenesse. |
1:22 | When they professed themselues to be wise, they became fooles. |
1:23 | For they turned the glorie of the incorruptible God to the similitude of the image of a corruptible man, and of birdes, and foure footed beastes, and of creeping things. |
1:24 | Wherefore also God gaue them vp to their hearts lusts, vnto vncleannesse, to defile their owne bodies betweene themselues: |
1:25 | Which turned the trueth of God vnto a lie, and worshipped and serued the creature, forsaking the Creator, which is blessed for euer, Amen. |
1:26 | For this cause God gaue them vp vnto vile affections: for euen their women did change the naturall vse into that which is against nature. |
1:27 | And likewise also the men left the naturall vse of the woman, and burned in their lust one toward another, and man with man wrought filthinesse, and receiued in themselues such recompence of their errour, as was meete. |
1:28 | For as they regarded not to acknowledge God, euen so God deliuered them vp vnto a reprobate minde, to doe those things which are not conuenient, |
1:29 | Being full of all vnrighteousnesse, fornication, wickednes, couetousnes, maliciousnes, full of enuie, of murder, of debate, of deceit, taking all things in the euill part, whisperers, |
1:30 | Backbiters, haters of God, doers of wrong, proude, boasters, inuenters of euil things, disobedient to parents, without vnderstanding, couenant breakers, without naturall affection, such as can neuer be appeased, mercilesse. |
1:31 | Which men, though they knew ye Lawe of God, how that they which comit such things are worthie of death, yet not onely do the same, but also fauour them that doe them. |
1:1 | Paule the seruaunte of Iesus Christ called to be an Apostle, put aparte to preache the Gospel of God, |
1:2 | whiche he promised afore by hys Prophetes in the holye scriptures |
1:3 | that make mention of hys sonne, the whyche was begotten of the sede of Dauid (as perteininge to the fleshe) |
1:4 | and declared to be the sonne of God, wyth power of the holye ghoste that sanctifyeth, sence the tyme that Iesus Christ our Lorde rose againe from death, |
1:5 | by whom we haue receyued grace and Apostleshyp, to brynge all maner heathen people vnto the obedience of the fayth that is in his name: |
1:6 | of the whyche heathen are ye a parte also, whyche are Iesus Christes by vocation. |
1:7 | To all you at Rome beloued of God, and sainctes by callynge Grace be wyth you and peace from God our father, and from our Lorde Iesus Christ. |
1:8 | Fyrste verelye I thanke my God thorowe Iesus Christe for you all, because your fayth is publyshed throughout all the worlde. |
1:9 | For God is my wytnes, whom I serue wyth my spyryte in the Gospel of hys sonne, that wythout ceasinge I make mencion of you alwayes in my prayers, |
1:10 | besechinge that at one tyme or other, a prosperous iorneye (by the wyll of God) myghte fortune me, to come vnto you. |
1:11 | For I longe to se you that I myght bestowe amonge you some spyrytuall gyfte, to strength you wyth all, |
1:12 | that is that I might haue consolacion together wyth you through the common fayth, whiche both ye and I haue. |
1:13 | I woulde that ye shoulde knowe bretherne, howe that I haue often tymes purposed to come vnto you (but haue bene let hitherto) to haue some fruite amonge you, as I haue amonge other of the Gentyls. |
1:14 | For I am detter both to the Grekes and to them, whyche are no Grekes, vnto the learned and also vnto the vnlearned. |
1:15 | Lykewyse as much as in me is. I am redy to preache the Gospel to you of Rome also. |
1:16 | For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God vnto saluacion to all that beleue, namely to the Iewe and also to the gentyle. |
1:17 | For by it the rightuousnes, which commeth of God is opened from fayth to fayth. |
1:18 | As it is written: the iust shal liue by faith. For the wrath of God appeareth from heauen agaynste all vngodlynesse and vnryghtuousnes of men, whiche wythholde the trueth in vnryghtuousnes, |
1:19 | saiyng: what maye be knowen of God, that same is manifest amonge them. For God dyd shewe it vnto them. |
1:20 | So that his inuisible thinges, that is to saye, hys eternall power and Godhead, are vnderstand & sene by the workes from the creation of the worlde. So that they are wythout excuse, |
1:21 | in as muche as when they knewe God, they glorifyed him not as God, neither were thankful, but waxed full of vanities in theyr Imaginations, and their folishe hertes were blinded. |
1:22 | When they counted them selues wyse, they became foles, |
1:23 | and tourned the glorye of the immortall God, vnto the the similitude of the Image of mortall man, and of byrdes, and foure foted beastes, and of serpentes. |
1:24 | Wherfore God lykewyse gaue them vp vnto their hertes lustes vnto vncleanes, to defyle theyr owne bodies betwene them selues: |
1:25 | whyche turned hys truth vnto a lye, and worshipped and serued the creatures more then the maker, whyche is blessed for euer. Amen. |
1:26 | For this cause God gaue them vp vnto shamefull lustes. For euen theyr women dyd chandge the natural vse vnto the vnnaturall. |
1:27 | And lykewyse also the men lefte the naturall vse of the woman, and brent in theyr lustes one on another. And man with man wroughte fylthynes, and receiued in them selues the reward of theyr errour, as it was accordinge. |
1:28 | And as it semed not good vnto them to be a knowen of God, euen so God deliuered them vp vnto a leud minde, that they should do those thinges, whiche were not comly, |
1:29 | beyng ful of al vnryghtuous doing, of fornicacion, wickednes, couetousnes, maliciousnes, full of enuye, murther, debate, disceite, euyl condicioned, whisperers, |
1:30 | backbiters, haters of God, doers of wronge, proude, bosters, bryngers vp of euyll thinges, disobedient to father and mother, |
1:31 | wythout vnderstandynge, couenaunt breakers, vnlouinge, truce breakers and mercyles. |
1:32 | Whyche men though they knewe the ryghtuousnes of God, howe that they which such thinges commit, are worthy of death, yet not onely do the same, but also haue pleasure in them that do them. |
