through whom we received grace and apostleship, unto obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name’s sake;

to all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hinder the truth in unrighteousness;

being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

Much every way: first of all, that they were intrusted with the oracles of God.

What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we before laid to the charge both of Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin;

They have all turned aside, they are together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not so much as one:

Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it speaketh to them that are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God:

even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;

for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

and he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be in uncircumcision, that righteousness might be reckoned unto them;

For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace; to the end that the promise may 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

Therefore, as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin; and so death passed unto all men, for that all sinned:—

So then as through one trespass the judgment came unto all men to condemnation; even so through one act of righteousness the free gift came unto all men to justification of life.

Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

but sin, finding occasion, wrought in me through the commandment all manner of coveting: for apart from the law sin is dead.

And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose.

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things?

Even as it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

whose are the fathers, and of whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

But it is not as though the word of God hath come to nought. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel:

neither, because they are Abraham’s seed, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might show in thee my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth.
