Romans 1:13-16
English Standard Version
13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers,[a] that (A)I have often intended to come to you (but (B)thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some (C)harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles. 14 (D)I am under obligation both to Greeks and to (E)barbarians,[b] both to the wise and to the foolish. 15 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
The Righteous Shall Live by Faith
16 For (F)I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is (G)the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew (H)first and also to (I)the Greek.
