² To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those ^(A)sanctified in Christ Jesus, ^(B)called to be saints together with all those who in every place ^(C)call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours:

³⁰ And because of him^[a] you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us ^(A)wisdom from God, ^(B)righteousness and ^(C)sanctification and ^(D)redemption,

⁷ To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints:

^(A)Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

¹⁵ but ^(A)as he who called you is holy, you also be holy ^(B)in all your conduct, ¹⁶ since it is written, ^(C)“You shall be holy, for I am holy.”

⁷ For ^(A)God has not called us for ^(B)impurity, but in holiness.

⁵ For what ^(A)we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ^(B)ourselves as your servants^[a] for Jesus' sake.

⁹ Or do you not know that the unrighteous^[a] will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: ^(A)neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,^{[b] 10} nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And ^(B)such were some of you. But ^(C)you were washed, ^(D)you were sanctified, ^(E)you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

^18 (A)to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from ^(B)the power of Satan to God, that they may receive ^(C)forgiveness of sins and ^(D)a place among those who are sanctified ^(E)by faith in me.’

¹⁴ And here he has authority from ^(A)the chief priests to bind all who ^(B)call on your name.”
