45:001:001 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

45:001:002 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)

45:001:003 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

45:001:004 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

45:001:005 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:

45:001:006 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:

45:001:007 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.

45:001:008 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

45:001:009 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;

45:001:010 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.

45:001:011 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;

45:001:012 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

45:001:013 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.

45:001:014 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.

45:001:015 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.

45:001:016 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.

45:001:017 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

45:001:018 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

45:001:019 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

45:001:020 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:

45:001:021 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.

45:001:022 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

45:001:023 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.

45:001:024 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

45:001:025 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.

45:001:026 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:

45:001:027 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 recompence of their error which was meet.

45:001:028 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;

45:001:029 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

45:001:030 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

45:001:031 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

45:001:032 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.

45:002:001 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.

45:002:002 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

45:002:003 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?

45:002:004 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

45:002:005 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;

45:002:006 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

45:002:007 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

45:002:008 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

45:002:009 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

45:002:010 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

45:002:011 For there is no respect of persons with God.

45:002:012 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;

45:002:013 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

45:002:014 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:

45:002:015 Which shew 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;)

45:002:016 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

45:002:017 Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

45:002:018 And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

45:002:019 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

45:002:020 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

45:002:021 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

45:002:022 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

45:002:023 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

45:002:024 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

45:002:025 For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

45:002:026 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

45:002:027 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?

45:002:028 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

45:002:029 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.

45:003:001 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?

45:003:002 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

45:003:003 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

45:003:004 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.

45:003:005 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)

45:003:006 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

45:003:007 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

45:003:008 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.

45:003:009 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;

45:003:010 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

45:003:011 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

45:003:012 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

45:003:013 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

45:003:014 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

45:003:015 Their feet are swift to shed blood:

45:003:016 Destruction and misery are in their ways:

45:003:017 And the way of peace have they not known:

45:003:018 There is no fear of God before their eyes.

45:003:019 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

45:003:020 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

45:003:021 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

45:003:022 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

45:003:023 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

45:003:024 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

45:003:025 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

45:003:026 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

45:003:027 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

45:003:028 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

45:003:029 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:

45:003:030 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

45:003:031 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

45:004:001 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?

45:004:002 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.

45:004:003 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.

45:004:004 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

45:004:005 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

45:004:006 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

45:004:007 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

45:004:008 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

45:004:009 Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.

45:004:010 How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

45:004:011 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:

45:004:012 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.

45:004:013 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

45:004:014 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

45:004:015 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.

45:004:016 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
