Romani 1
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
Urarea
1 Pavel, rob al lui Isus Hristos, chemat(A) să fie apostol, pus deoparte(B) ca să vestească Evanghelia lui Dumnezeu, 2 pe care o(C) făgăduise mai înainte prin(D) prorocii Săi în Sfintele Scripturi. 3 Ea priveşte pe Fiul Său, născut(E) din sămânţa lui David în ce priveşte trupul, 4 iar în ce priveşte(F) duhul(G) sfinţeniei dovedit cu putere(H) că este Fiul lui Dumnezeu, prin învierea morţilor, adică pe Isus Hristos, Domnul nostru, 5 prin care am(I) primit harul şi apostolia, ca să aducem, pentru(J) Numele Lui, la ascultarea(K) credinţei pe toate neamurile, 6 între care sunteţi şi voi, cei chemaţi să fiţi ai lui Isus Hristos. 7 Deci, vouă tuturor, care sunteţi preaiubiţi ai lui Dumnezeu în Roma, chemaţi(L) să fiţi sfinţi: Har(M) şi pace de la Dumnezeu, Tatăl nostru, şi de la Domnul Isus Hristos!
Pavel şi creştinii din Roma
8 Mai întâi mulţumesc(N) Dumnezeului meu, prin Isus Hristos, pentru voi toţi, căci credinţa(O) voastră este vestită în toată lumea. 9 Dumnezeu(P), căruia Îi slujesc(Q) în duhul meu, în Evanghelia Fiului Său, îmi este martor că vă pomenesc neîncetat(R) în rugăciunile mele 10 şi cer totdeauna(S) ca, prin voia(T) lui Dumnezeu, să am, în sfârşit, fericirea să vin la voi. 11 Căci doresc să vă văd, ca să(U) vă dau vreun dar duhovnicesc pentru întărirea voastră 12 sau, mai degrabă, ca să ne îmbărbătăm laolaltă în mijlocul vostru, prin credinţa(V) pe care o avem împreună şi voi, şi eu. 13 Nu vreau să nu ştiţi, fraţilor, că de(W) multe ori am avut de gând să vin la voi, ca să culeg vreun rod(X) printre voi, ca printre celelalte neamuri, dar(Y) am fost împiedicat până acum. 14 Eu(Z) sunt dator şi grecilor, şi barbarilor, şi celor învăţaţi, şi celor neînvăţaţi. 15 Astfel, în ce mă priveşte pe mine, am o vie dorinţă să vă vestesc Evanghelia vouă celor din Roma.
Neprihănirea se capătă prin credinţă
16 Căci(AA) mie nu mi-e ruşine de Evanghelia lui Hristos, fiindcă(AB) ea este puterea lui Dumnezeu pentru mântuirea fiecăruia care crede: întâi a(AC) iudeului, apoi a grecului, 17 deoarece în(AD) ea este descoperită o neprihănire pe care o dă Dumnezeu prin credinţă şi care duce la credinţă, după cum este scris: „Cel neprihănit(AE) va trăi prin credinţă”.
Starea de păcat a omenirii
18 Mânia(AF) lui Dumnezeu se descoperă din cer împotriva oricărei necinstiri a lui Dumnezeu şi împotriva oricărei nelegiuiri a oamenilor, care înăbuşă adevărul în nelegiuirea lor. 19 Fiindcă(AG) ce se poate cunoaşte despre Dumnezeu le este descoperit în ei, căci le-a fost arătat de Dumnezeu(AH). 20 În adevăr, însuşirile nevăzute(AI) ale Lui, puterea Lui veşnică şi dumnezeirea Lui, se văd lămurit de la facerea lumii, când te uiţi cu băgare de seamă la ele în lucrurile făcute de El. Aşa că nu se pot dezvinovăţi, 21 fiindcă, măcar că au cunoscut pe Dumnezeu, nu L-au proslăvit ca Dumnezeu, nici nu I-au mulţumit, ci s-au dedat la gândiri deşarte(AJ) şi inima lor fără pricepere s-a întunecat. 22 S-au(AK) fălit că sunt înţelepţi şi au înnebunit 23 şi au schimbat slava Dumnezeului(AL) nemuritor într-o icoană care seamănă cu omul muritor, păsări, dobitoace cu patru picioare şi târâtoare. 24 De aceea(AM), Dumnezeu i-a lăsat pradă necurăţiei, să urmeze poftele inimilor lor, aşa că(AN) îşi necinstesc singuri(AO) trupurile, 25 căci au schimbat în minciună adevărul(AP) lui Dumnezeu şi au slujit şi s-au închinat făpturii în(AQ) locul Făcătorului, care este binecuvântat în veci! Amin. 26 Din pricina aceasta, Dumnezeu i-a lăsat în voia unor patimi(AR) scârboase, căci femeile lor au schimbat întrebuinţarea firească a lor într-una care este împotriva firii; 27 tot astfel, şi bărbaţii au părăsit întrebuinţarea firească a femeii, s-au aprins în poftele lor unii pentru alţii, au săvârşit parte bărbătească cu parte bărbătească lucruri scârboase şi au primit în ei înşişi plata cuvenită pentru rătăcirea lor. 28 Fiindcă n-au căutat să păstreze pe Dumnezeu în cunoştinţa lor, Dumnezeu i-a lăsat în voia minţii lor blestemate, ca să facă lucruri neîngăduite(AS). 29 Astfel au ajuns plini de orice fel de nelegiuire, de curvie, de viclenie, de lăcomie, de răutate; plini de pizmă, de ucidere, de ceartă, de înşelăciune, de porniri răutăcioase; sunt şoptitori, 30 bârfitori, urâtori de Dumnezeu, obraznici, trufaşi, lăudăroşi, născocitori de rele, neascultători de părinţi, 31 fără pricepere, călcători de cuvânt, fără dragoste firească, neînduplecaţi, fără milă. 32 Şi, măcar că ştiu(AT) hotărârea lui Dumnezeu, că cei ce fac asemenea lucruri sunt(AU) vrednici de moarte, totuşi ei nu numai că le fac, dar şi găsesc de buni(AV) pe cei ce le fac.
Romans 1
King James Version
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
7 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.
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9 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;
10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 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.
14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
16 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.
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 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:
21 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.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 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.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 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.
26 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:
27 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.
28 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;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 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.
Romans 1
New King James Version
Greeting
1 Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, (A)called to be an apostle, (B)separated to the gospel of God 2 (C)which He promised before (D)through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures, 3 concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who [a]was (E)born of the seed of David according to the flesh, 4 and (F)declared to be the Son of God with power according (G)to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. 5 Through Him (H)we have received grace and apostleship for (I)obedience to the faith among all nations (J)for His name, 6 among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ;
7 To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, (K)called to be saints:
(L)Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Desire to Visit Rome
8 First, (M)I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that (N)your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. 9 For (O)God is my witness, (P)whom I serve [b]with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that (Q)without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers, 10 making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you. 11 For I long to see you, that (R)I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established— 12 that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by (S)the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but (T)was hindered until now), that I might have some (U)fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles. 14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to wise and to unwise. 15 So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.
The Just Live by Faith
16 For (V)I am not ashamed of the gospel [c]of Christ, for (W)it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, (X)for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For (Y)in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, (Z)“The just shall live by faith.”
God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness
18 (AA)For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and (AB)unrighteousness of men, who [d]suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because (AC)what may be known of God is [e]manifest [f]in them, for (AD)God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world (AE)His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and [g]Godhead, so that they are without excuse, 21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but (AF)became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 (AG)Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the (AH)incorruptible (AI)God into an image made like [h]corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 (AJ)Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, (AK)to dishonor their bodies (AL)among themselves, 25 who exchanged (AM)the truth of God (AN)for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to (AO)vile passions. For even their [i]women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the [j]men, leaving the natural use of the [k]woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things (AP)which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, [l]sexual immorality, wickedness, [m]covetousness, [n]maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 [o]undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, [p]unforgiving, unmerciful; 32 who, (AQ)knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things (AR)are deserving of death, not only do the same but also (AS)approve of those who practice them.

Romans 1
New International Version
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle(A) and set apart(B) for the gospel of God(C)— 2 the gospel he promised beforehand(D) through his prophets(E) in the Holy Scriptures(F) 3 regarding his Son, who as to his earthly life[a](G) was a descendant of David,(H) 4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power[b](I) by his resurrection from the dead:(J) Jesus Christ our Lord.(K) 5 Through him we received grace(L) and apostleship to call all the Gentiles(M) to the obedience that comes from[c] faith(N) for his name’s sake. 6 And you also are among those Gentiles who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.(O)
7 To all in Rome who are loved by God(P) and called to be his holy people:(Q)
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.(R)
Paul’s Longing to Visit Rome
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you,(S) because your faith is being reported all over the world.(T) 9 God, whom I serve(U) in my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness(V) how constantly I remember you 10 in my prayers at all times;(W) and I pray that now at last by God’s will(X) the way may be opened for me to come to you.(Y)
11 I long to see you(Z) so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift(AA) to make you strong— 12 that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith. 13 I do not want you to be unaware,(AB) brothers and sisters,[d](AC) that I planned many times to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now)(AD) in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
14 I am obligated(AE) both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish. 15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.(AF)
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel,(AG) because it is the power of God(AH) that brings salvation to everyone who believes:(AI) first to the Jew,(AJ) then to the Gentile.(AK) 17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed(AL)—a righteousness that is by faith(AM) from first to last,[e] just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”[f](AN)
God’s Wrath Against Sinful Humanity
18 The wrath of God(AO) is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.(AP) 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made,(AQ) so that people are without excuse.(AR)
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.(AS) 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools(AT) 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images(AU) made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over(AV) in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.(AW) 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie,(AX) and worshiped and served created things(AY) rather than the Creator—who is forever praised.(AZ) Amen.(BA)
26 Because of this, God gave them over(BB) to shameful lusts.(BC) Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.(BD) 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.(BE)
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over(BF) to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips,(BG) 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;(BH) 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love,(BI) no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death,(BJ) they not only continue to do these very things but also approve(BK) of those who practice them.
