PaulG3972, a servantG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, calledG2822 to be an apostleG652, separatedG873 untoG1519 the gospelG2098 of GodG2316,
(WhichG3739 he had promised aforeG4279 byG1223 hisG846 prophetsG4396 inG1722 the holyG40 scripturesG1124,)
ConcerningG4012 hisG846 SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2257 LordG2962, whichG3588 was madeG1096 ofG1537 the seedG4690 of DavidG1138 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561;
And declaredG3724 to be the SonG5207 of GodG2316 withG1722 powerG1411, accordingG2596 to the spiritG4151 of holinessG42, byG1537 the resurrectionG386 from the deadG3498: {declared: Gr. determined}
ByG1223 whomG3739 we have receivedG2983 graceG5485 andG2532 apostleshipG651, forG1519 obedienceG5218 to the faithG4102 amongG1722 allG3956 nationsG1484, forG5228 hisG846 nameG3686: {for obedience…: or, to the obedience of faith}
AmongG1722 whomG3739 areG2075 yeG5210 alsoG2532 the calledG2822 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
To allG3956 that beG5607 inG1722 RomeG4516, belovedG27 of GodG2316, calledG2822 to be saintsG40: GraceG5485 to youG5213 andG2532 peaceG1515 fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
FirstG4412+G3303, I thankG2168 myG3450 GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG5228 youG5216 allG3956, thatG3754 yourG5216 faithG4102 is spokenG2605 of throughoutG1722 the wholeG3650 worldG2889.
ForG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 myG3450 witnessG3144, whomG3739 I serveG3000 withG1722 myG3450 spiritG4151 inG1722 the gospelG2098 of hisG846 SonG5207, thatG5613 without ceasingG89 I makeG4160 mentionG3417 of youG5216 alwaysG3842 inG1909 myG3450 prayersG4335; {with: or, in}
Making requestG1189, if by any meansG1513 nowG2235 at lengthG4218 I might have a prosperous journeyG2137 byG1722 the willG2307 of GodG2316 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209.
ForG1063 I longG1971 to seeG1492 youG5209, thatG2443 I may impartG3330 unto youG5213 someG5100 spiritualG4152 giftG5486, to the endG1519 yeG5209 may be establishedG4741;
ThatG1161+G5124 isG2076, that I may be comforted togetherG4837 withG1722 youG5213 byG1223+G1722 the mutualG240 faithG4102 bothG5037 of youG5216 andG2532 meG1700. {with: or, in}
NowG1161 I wouldG2309 notG3756 haveG50 youG5209 ignorantG50, brethrenG80, thatG3754 oftentimesG4178 I purposedG4388 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, (butG2532 was letG2967 hithertoG891+G1204,) thatG2443 I might haveG2192 someG5100 fruitG2590 amongG1722 youG5213 alsoG2532, even asG2531+G2532 amongG1722 otherG3062 GentilesG1484. {among: or, in}
I amG1510 debtorG3781 bothG5037 to the GreeksG1672, andG2532 to the BarbariansG915; bothG5037 to the wiseG4680, andG2532 to the unwiseG453.
SoG3779, as much asG2596 in me isG1691, I am readyG4289 to preach the gospelG2097 to youG5213 that are atG1722 RomeG4516 alsoG2532.
ForG1063 I amG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: forG1063 it isG2076 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 untoG1519 salvationG4991 to every oneG3956 that believethG4100; to the JewG2453 firstG4412, andG5037 alsoG2532 to the GreekG1672.
ForG1063 thereinG1722+G846 isG601 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316 revealedG601 fromG1537 faithG4102 toG1519 faithG4102: asG2531 it is writtenG1125+G1161, The justG1342 shall liveG2198 byG1537 faithG4102.
ForG1063 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 is revealedG601 fromG575 heavenG3772 againstG1909 allG3956 ungodlinessG763 andG2532 unrighteousnessG93 of menG444, who holdG2722 the truthG225 inG1722 unrighteousnessG93;
BecauseG1360 that which may be knownG1110 of GodG2316 isG2076 manifestG5318 inG1722 themG846; forG1063 GodG2316 hath shewedG5319 it unto themG846. {in them: or, to them}
ForG1063 the invisible thingsG517 of himG846 fromG575 the creationG2937 of the worldG2889 are clearly seenG2529, being understoodG3539 by the things that are madeG4161, evenG5037 hisG846 eternalG126 powerG1411 andG2532 GodheadG2305; soG1519 that theyG846 areG1511 without excuseG379: {so…: or, that they may be}
BecauseG1360 that, when they knewG1097 GodG2316, they glorifiedG1392 him notG3756 asG5613 GodG2316, neitherG2228 were thankfulG2168; butG235 became vainG3154 inG1722 theirG846 imaginationsG1261, andG2532 theirG846 foolishG801 heartG2588 was darkenedG4654.
Professing themselvesG5335 to beG1511 wiseG4680, they became foolsG3471,
AndG2532 changedG236 the gloryG1391 of the uncorruptibleG862 GodG2316 intoG1722 an imageG1504 made likeG3667 to corruptibleG5349 manG444, andG2532 to birdsG4071, andG2532 fourfooted beastsG5074, andG2532 creeping thingsG2062.
WhereforeG1352 GodG2316 alsoG2532 gaveG3860 themG846 upG3860 toG1519 uncleannessG167 throughG1722 the lustsG1939 of their ownG846 heartsG2588, to dishonourG818 their ownG846 bodiesG4983 betweenG1722 themselvesG1438:
WhoG3748 changedG3337 the truthG225 of GodG2316 intoG1722 a lieG5579, andG2532 worshippedG4573 andG2532 servedG3000 the creatureG2937 more thanG3844 the CreatorG2936, whoG3739 isG2076 blessedG2128 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281. {more: or, rather}
ForG1223 thisG5124 cause GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 upG3860 untoG1519 vileG819 affectionsG3806: forG1063 evenG5037 theirG846 womenG2338 did changeG3337 the naturalG5446 useG5540 intoG1519 that which is againstG3844 natureG5449:
AndG5037 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the menG730, leavingG863 the naturalG5446 useG5540 of the womanG2338, burnedG1572 inG1722 theirG846 lustG3715 one toward anotherG1519+G240; menG730 withG1722 menG730 workingG2716 that which is unseemlyG808, andG2532 receivingG618 inG1722 themselvesG1438 that recompenceG489 of theirG846 errorG4106 whichG3739 was meetG1163.
AndG2532 even asG2531 they didG1381 notG3756 likeG1381 to retainG2192 GodG2316 inG1722 their knowledgeG1922, GodG2316 gaveG3860 themG846 overG3860 toG1519 a reprobateG96 mindG3563, to doG4160 those things which areG2520 notG3361 convenientG2520; {to retain: or, to acknowledge} {a reprobate…: or, a mind void of judgment or, an unapproving mind}
Being filled withG4137 allG3956 unrighteousnessG93, fornicationG4202, wickednessG4189, covetousnessG4124, maliciousnessG2549; fullG3324 of envyG5355, murderG5408, debateG2054, deceitG1388, malignityG2550; whisperersG5588,
BackbitersG2637, haters of GodG2319, despitefulG5197, proudG5244, boastersG213, inventorsG2182 of evil thingsG2556, disobedientG545 to parentsG1118,
Without understandingG801, covenantbreakersG802, without natural affectionG794, implacableG786, unmercifulG415: {without natural…: or unsociable}
WhoG3748 knowingG1921 the judgmentG1345 of GodG2316, thatG3754 they which commitG4238 such thingsG5108 areG1526 worthyG514 of deathG2288, notG3756 onlyG3440 doG4160 the sameG846, butG235+G2532 have pleasureG4909 in them that doG4238 them. {have…: or, consent with}

I have preachedH1319 righteousnessH6664 in the greatH7227 congregationH6951: lo, I have not refrainedH3607 my lipsH8193, O LORDH3068, thou knowestH3045.
ThroughG1722 mightyG1411 signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059, byG1722 the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316; soG5620 that fromG575 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 round aboutG2945 untoG3360 IllyricumG2437, IG3165 have fully preachedG4137 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
So thenG686 faithG4102 cometh byG1537 hearingG189, andG1161 hearingG189 byG1223 the wordG4487 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 he receivedG2983 the signG4592 of circumcisionG4061, a sealG4973 of the righteousnessG1343 of the faithG4102 whichG3588 he had yet beingG1722 uncircumcisedG203: thatG1519 heG846 might beG1511 the fatherG3962 of allG3956 them that believeG4100, thoughG1223 they be not circumcisedG203; thatG1519 righteousnessG1343 might be imputedG3049 unto themG846 alsoG2532:
TribulationG2347 andG2532 anguishG4730, uponG1909 everyG3956 soulG5590 of manG444 that doethG2716 evilG2556, of the JewG2453 firstG4412, andG5037 alsoG2532 of the GentileG1672; {Gentile: Gr. Greek}
I have not hidH3680 thy righteousnessH6666 withinH8432 my heartH3820; I have declaredH559 thy faithfulnessH530 and thy salvationH8668: I have not concealedH3582 thy lovingkindnessH2617 and thy truthH571 from the greatH7227 congregationH6951.
AndG1161 I am sureG1492 thatG3754, when I comeG2064 untoG4314 youG5209, I shall comeG2064 inG1722 the fulnessG4138 of the blessingG2129 of the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
The LORDH3068 shall sendH7971 the rodH4294 of thy strengthH5797 out of ZionH6726: ruleH7287 thou in the midstH7130 of thine enemiesH341.
My mouthH6310 shall shew forthH5608 thy righteousnessH6666 and thy salvationH8668 all the dayH3117; for I knowH3045 not the numbersH5615 thereof.
AndG2532 the angelG32 saidG2036 unto themG846, FearG5399 notG3361: forG1063, beholdG2400, I bringG2097 youG5213 good tidingsG2097 of greatG3173 joyG5479, whichG3748 shall beG2071 to allG3956 peopleG2992.
Who hath believedH539 our reportH8052? and to whom is the armH2220 of the LORDH3068 revealedH1540? {report: or, doctrine?: Heb. hearing?}
I will go inH935 the strengthH1369 of the LordH136 GODH3069: I will make mentionH2142 of thy righteousnessH6666, even of thine only.
ForG3754 unto youG5213 is bornG5088 this dayG4594 inG1722 the cityG4172 of DavidG1138 a SaviourG4990, whichG3739 isG2076 ChristG5547 the LordG2962.
Is not my wordH1697 likeH3541 as a fireH784? saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and like a hammerH6360 that breakethH6327 the rockH5553 in piecesH6327?
IfG1487 othersG243 be partakersG3348 of this powerG1849 over youG5216, are notG3756 weG2249 ratherG3123? NeverthelessG235 we haveG5530 notG3756 usedG5530 thisG5026 powerG1849; butG235 sufferG4722 all thingsG3956, lestG3363 we shouldG1325+G5100 hinderG1464 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
ForG1063 the preachingG3056 of the crossG4716 isG2076 to themG3303 that perishG622 foolishnessG3472; butG1161 unto usG2254 which are savedG4982 it isG2076 the powerG1411 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, I will destroyG622 the wisdomG4678 of the wiseG4680, andG2532 will bring to nothingG114 the understandingG4907 of the prudentG4908.
WhereG4226 is the wiseG4680? whereG4226 is the scribeG1122? whereG4226 is the disputerG4804 of thisG5127 worldG165? hathG3471 notG3780 GodG2316 made foolishG3471 the wisdomG4678 of thisG5127 worldG2889?
ForG1063 afterG1894 that inG1722 the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316 the worldG2889 byG1223 wisdomG4678 knewG1097 notG3756 GodG2316, it pleasedG2106 GodG2316 byG1223 the foolishnessG3472 of preachingG2782 to saveG4982 them that believeG4100.
ForG2532+G1894 the JewsG2453 requireG154 a signG4592, andG2532 the GreeksG1672 seekG2212 after wisdomG4678:
ButG1161 weG2249 preachG2784 ChristG5547 crucifiedG4717, unto the JewsG2453 a stumblingblockG3303+G4625, andG1161 unto the GreeksG1672 foolishnessG3472;
ButG1161 unto themG846 whichG3588 are calledG2822, bothG5037 JewsG2453 andG2532 GreeksG1672, ChristG5547 the powerG1411 of GodG2316, andG2532 the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316.
WhosoeverG3739+G302 thereforeG1063 shall be ashamedG1870 of meG3165 andG2532 of myG1699 wordsG3056 inG1722 thisG5026 adulterousG3428 andG2532 sinfulG268 generationG1074; of himG846 alsoG2532 shallG1870 the SonG5207 of manG444 be ashamedG1870, whenG3752 he comethG2064 inG1722 the gloryG1391 of hisG846 FatherG3962 withG3326 the holyG40 angelsG32.
WhatG5101 isG2076 myG3427 rewardG3408 thenG3767? Verily thatG2443, when I preach the gospelG2097, I may makeG5087 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547 without chargeG77, thatG1519 I abuseG2710 notG3361 myG3450 powerG1849 inG1722 the gospelG2098.
AndG2532 myG3450 speechG3056 andG2532 myG3450 preachingG2782 was notG3756 withG1722 enticingG3981 wordsG3056 of man'sG442 wisdomG4678, butG235 inG1722 demonstrationG585 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 of powerG1411: {enticing: or, persuasible}
ForG1063 whosoeverG3739+G302 shall be ashamedG1870 of meG3165 andG2532 of myG1699 wordsG3056, of himG5126 shallG1870 the SonG5207 of manG444 be ashamedG1870, whenG3752 he shall comeG2064 inG1722 his ownG846 gloryG1391, andG2532 in his Father'sG3962, andG2532 of the holyG40 angelsG32.
FurthermoreG1161, when I cameG2064 toG1519 TroasG5174 toG1519 preach Christ'sG5547 gospelG2098, andG2532 a doorG2374 was openedG455 unto meG3427 ofG1722 the LordG2962,
ButG1161 ifG1437 allG3956 prophesyG4395, andG1161 there come inG1525 oneG5100 that believeth notG571, orG2228 one unlearnedG2399, he is convincedG1651 ofG5259 allG3956, he is judgedG350 ofG5259 allG3956:
ForG1063 I determinedG2919 notG3756 to knowG1492 any thingG5100 amongG1722 youG5213, saveG1508 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 himG5126 crucifiedG4717.
InG1722 whomG3739 the godG2316 of thisG5127 worldG165 hath blindedG5186 the mindsG3540 of them which believe notG571, lestG1519+G3361 the lightG5462 of the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 isG2076 the imageG1504 of GodG2316, should shineG826 unto themG846.
AndG2532 thusG3779 areG1096 the secretsG2927 of hisG846 heartG2588 madeG1096 manifestG5318; andG2532 soG3779 falling downG4098 onG1909 his faceG4383 he will worshipG4352 GodG2316, and reportG518 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 inG1722 youG5213 of a truthG3689.
BeG1870 notG3361 thouG1870 thereforeG3767 ashamedG1870 of the testimonyG3142 of ourG2257 LordG2962, norG3366 of meG1691 hisG846 prisonerG1198: butG235 be thou partaker of the afflictionsG4777 of the gospelG2098 according toG2596 the powerG1411 of GodG2316;
Whiles byG1223 the experimentG1382 of thisG5026 ministrationG1248 they glorifyG1392 GodG2316 forG1909 yourG5216 professedG3671 subjectionG5292 untoG1519 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, andG2532 for your liberalG572 distributionG2842 untoG1519 themG846, andG2532 untoG1519 allG3956 men;
ByG1223 whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye are savedG4982, ifG1487 ye keepG2722 in memory whatG5101+G3056 I preachedG2097 unto youG5213, unlessG1622+G1508 ye have believedG4100 in vainG1500. {keep…: or, hold fast} {what: Gr. by what speech}
ForG1223 the whichG3739 causeG156 IG3958 alsoG2532 sufferG3958 these thingsG5023: neverthelessG235 I amG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870: forG1063 I knowG1492 whomG3739 I have believedG4100, andG2532 am persuadedG3982 thatG3754 he isG2076 ableG1415 to keepG5442 that which IG3450 have committed unto himG3866 againstG1519 thatG1565 dayG2250. {believed: or, trusted}
WhichG3739 isG2076 notG3756 anotherG243; but there beG1526 someG5100 thatG1508 troubleG5015 youG5209, andG2532 wouldG2309 pervertG3344 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.
NowG1161 thanksG5485 be unto GodG2316, which alwaysG3842 causethG2358 usG2248 to triumphG2358 inG1722 ChristG5547, andG2532 maketh manifestG5319 the savourG3744 of hisG846 knowledgeG1108 byG1223 usG2257 inG1722 everyG3956 placeG5117.
ForG3754 we areG2070 unto GodG2316 a sweet savourG2175 of ChristG5547, inG1722 them that are savedG4982, andG2532 inG1722 them that perishG622:
ToG3739 the oneG3303 we are the savourG3744 of deathG2288 untoG1519 deathG2288; andG1161 to the otherG3739 the savourG3744 of lifeG2222 untoG1519 lifeG2222. AndG2532 whoG5101 is sufficientG2425 forG4314 these thingsG5023?
The LordG2962 giveG1325 mercyG1656 unto the houseG3624 of OnesiphorusG3683; forG3754 heG404 oftG4178 refreshedG404 meG3165, andG2532 wasG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870 of myG3450 chainG254:
AccordingG2596 to the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of the blessedG3107 GodG2316, whichG3739 was committed toG4100 myG1473 trustG4100.
(ForG1063 the weaponsG3696 of ourG2257 warfareG4752 are notG3756 carnalG4559, butG235 mightyG1415 through GodG2316 toG4314 the pulling downG2506 of strong holdsG3794;) {through God: or, to God}
YetG1161 ifG1487 any man suffer asG5613 a ChristianG5546, let himG153 notG3361 be ashamedG153; butG1161 let him glorifyG1392 GodG2316 onG1722 thisG5129 behalfG3313.
Casting downG2507 imaginationsG3053, andG2532 everyG3956 high thingG5313 that exalteth itselfG1869 againstG2596 the knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316, andG2532 bringing into captivityG163 everyG3956 thoughtG3540 toG1519 the obedienceG5218 of ChristG5547; {imaginations: or, reasonings}
ForG1223 the hopeG1680 whichG3588 is laid upG606 for youG5213 inG1722 heavenG3772, whereofG3739 ye heard beforeG4257 inG1722 the wordG3056 of the truthG225 of the gospelG2098;
WhichG3588 is comeG3918 untoG1519 youG5209, asG2531+G2532 it is inG1722 allG3956 the worldG2889; andG2532 bringeth forth fruitG2076+G2592, asG2531 it doth alsoG2532 inG1722 youG5213, sinceG575 theG3739 dayG2250 ye heardG191 of it, andG2532 knewG1921 the graceG5485 of GodG2316 inG1722 truthG225:
ForG3754 ourG2257 gospelG2098 cameG1096 notG3756 untoG1519 youG5209 inG1722 wordG3056 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 inG1722 powerG1411, andG2532 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 inG1722 muchG4183 assuranceG4136; asG2531 ye knowG1492 what manner of menG3634 we wereG1096 amongG1722 youG5213 forG1223 yourG5209 sake.
AndG2532 yeG5210 becameG1096 followersG3402 of usG2257, andG2532 of the LordG2962, having receivedG1209 the wordG3056 inG1722 muchG4183 afflictionG2347, withG3326 joyG5479 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
For thisG5124 causeG1223 alsoG2532 thankG2168 weG2249 GodG2316 without ceasingG89, becauseG3754, when ye receivedG3880 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 which ye heardG189 ofG3844 usG2257, ye receivedG1209 it notG3756 as the wordG3056 of menG444, butG235 asG2531 it isG2076 in truthG230, the wordG3056 of GodG2316, whichG3739 effectually workethG1754 alsoG2532 inG1722 youG5213 that believeG4100.
ForG1063 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 is quickG2198, andG2532 powerfulG1756, andG2532 sharperG5114 thanG5228 anyG3956 twoedgedG1366 swordG3162, piercingG1338 even toG891 the dividing asunderG3311 of soulG5590 andG5037+G2532 spiritG4151, andG5037+G2532 of the jointsG719 andG2532 marrowG3452, andG2532 is a discernerG2924 of the thoughtsG1761 andG2532 intentsG1771 of the heartG2588.
