The Gospel of God for Rome

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle^[a](A) and set apart^(B) for the gospel of God^(C)— ² which he promised beforehand^(D) through his prophets^(E) in the Holy Scriptures— ³ concerning his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was a descendant of David^[b](F) according to the flesh^{(G) 4} and was appointed to be the powerful^(H) Son of God^(I) according to the Spirit of holiness^[c] by the resurrection of the dead. ⁵ Through him we have received grace and apostleship^(J) to bring about^[d] the obedience^(K) of faith for the sake of his name among all the Gentiles,^[e](L)

⁷ Now grace was given to each one of us^(A) according to the measure of Christ’s gift.

¹⁶ Therefore, let us approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need.
