Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, an Apostle by the selection of God, given authority as a preacher of the good news,
Paulus servus Christi Iesu vocatus apostolus segregatus in evangelium Dei
2 Of which God had given word before by his prophets in the holy Writings,
quod ante promiserat per prophetas suos in scripturis sanctis
3 About his Son who, in the flesh, came from the family of David,
de Filio suo qui factus est ex semine David secundum carnem
4 But was marked out as Son of God in power by the Holy Spirit through the coming to life again of the dead; Jesus Christ our Lord,
qui praedestinatus est Filius Dei in virtute secundum Spiritum sanctificationis ex resurrectione mortuorum Iesu Christi Domini nostri
5 Through whom grace has been given to us, sending us out to make disciples to the faith among all nations, for his name:
per quem accepimus gratiam et apostolatum ad oboediendum fidei in omnibus gentibus pro nomine eius
6 Among whom you in the same way have been marked out to be disciples of Jesus Christ:
in quibus estis et vos vocati Iesu Christi
7 To all those who are in Rome, loved by God, marked out as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
omnibus qui sunt Romae dilectis Dei vocatis sanctis gratia vobis et pax a Deo Patre nostro et Domino Iesu Christo
8 First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.
primum quidem gratias ago Deo meo per Iesum Christum pro omnibus vobis quia fides vestra adnuntiatur in universo mundo
9 For God is my witness, whose servant I am in spirit in the good news of his Son, that you are at all times in my memory and in my prayers,
testis enim mihi est Deus cui servio in spiritu meo in evangelio Filii eius quod sine intermissione memoriam vestri facio
10 And that I am ever making prayers that God will give me a good journey to you.
semper in orationibus meis obsecrans si quo modo tandem aliquando prosperum iter habeam in voluntate Dei veniendi ad vos
11 For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;
desidero enim videre vos ut aliquid inpertiar gratiae vobis spiritalis ad confirmandos vos
12 That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.
id est simul consolari in vobis per eam quae invicem est fidem vestram atque meam
13 You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.
nolo autem vos ignorare fratres quia saepe proposui venire ad vos et prohibitus sum usque adhuc ut aliquem fructum habeam et in vobis sicut et in ceteris gentibus
14 I have a debt to Greeks and to the nations outside; to the wise and to those who have no learning.
Graecis ac barbaris sapientibus et insipientibus debitor sum
15 For which reason I have the desire, as far as I am able, to give the knowledge of the good news to you who are in Rome.
ita quod in me promptum est et vobis qui Romae estis evangelizare
16 For I have no feeling of shame about the good news, because it is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek.
non enim erubesco evangelium virtus enim Dei est in salutem omni credenti Iudaeo primum et Graeco
17 For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.
iustitia enim Dei in eo revelatur ex fide in fidem sicut scriptum est iustus autem ex fide vivit
18 For there is a revelation of the wrath of God from heaven against all the wrongdoing and evil thoughts of men who keep down what is true by wrongdoing;
revelatur enim ira Dei de caelo super omnem impietatem et iniustitiam hominum eorum qui veritatem in iniustitiam detinent
19 Because the knowledge of God may be seen in them, God having made it clear to them.
quia quod notum est Dei manifestum est in illis Deus enim illis manifestavit
20 For from the first making of the world, those things of God which the eye is unable to see, that is, his eternal power and existence, are fully made clear, he having given the knowledge of them through the things which he has made, so that men have no reason for wrongdoing: (aïdios g126)
invisibilia enim ipsius a creatura mundi per ea quae facta sunt intellecta conspiciuntur sempiterna quoque eius virtus et divinitas ut sint inexcusabiles (aïdios g126)
21 Because, having the knowledge of God, they did not give glory to God as God, and did not give praise, but their minds were full of foolish things, and their hearts, being without sense, were made dark.
quia cum cognovissent Deum non sicut Deum glorificaverunt aut gratias egerunt sed evanuerunt in cogitationibus suis et obscuratum est insipiens cor eorum
22 Seeming to be wise, they were in fact foolish,
dicentes enim se esse sapientes stulti facti sunt
23 And by them the glory of the eternal God was changed and made into the image of man who is not eternal, and of birds and beasts and things which go on the earth.
et mutaverunt gloriam incorruptibilis Dei in similitudinem imaginis corruptibilis hominis et volucrum et quadrupedum et serpentium
24 For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:
propter quod tradidit illos Deus in desideria cordis eorum in inmunditiam ut contumeliis adficiant corpora sua in semet ipsis
25 Because by them the true word of God was changed into that which is false, and they gave worship and honour to the thing which is made, and not to him who made it, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it. (aiōn g165)
qui commutaverunt veritatem Dei in mendacio et coluerunt et servierunt creaturae potius quam creatori qui est benedictus in saecula amen (aiōn g165)
26 For this reason God gave them up to evil passions, and their women were changing the natural use into one which is unnatural:
propterea tradidit illos Deus in passiones ignominiae nam feminae eorum inmutaverunt naturalem usum in eum usum qui est contra naturam
27 And in the same way the men gave up the natural use of the woman and were burning in their desire for one another, men doing shame with men, and getting in their bodies the right reward of their evil-doing.
similiter autem et masculi relicto naturali usu feminae exarserunt in desideriis suis in invicem masculi in masculos turpitudinem operantes et mercedem quam oportuit erroris sui in semet ipsis recipientes
28 And because they had not the mind to keep God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an evil mind, to do those things which are not right;
et sicut non probaverunt Deum habere in notitia tradidit eos Deus in reprobum sensum ut faciant quae non conveniunt
29 Being full of all wrongdoing, evil, desire for the goods of others, hate, envy, putting to death, fighting, deceit, cruel ways, evil talk, and false statements about others;
repletos omni iniquitate malitia fornicatione avaritia nequitia plenos invidia homicidio contentione dolo malignitate susurrones
30 Hated by God, full of pride, without respect, full of loud talk, given to evil inventions, not honouring father or mother,
detractores Deo odibiles contumeliosos superbos elatos inventores malorum parentibus non oboedientes
31 Without knowledge, not true to their undertakings, unkind, having no mercy:
insipientes inconpositos sine affectione absque foedere sine misericordia
32 Who, though they have knowledge of the law of God, that the fate of those who do these things is death, not only go on doing these things themselves, but give approval to those who do them.
qui cum iustitiam Dei cognovissent non intellexerunt quoniam qui talia agunt digni sunt morte non solum ea faciunt sed et consentiunt facientibus
