Romans 1

1 Paul, bondman of Jesus Christ, [a] called apostle, separated to God's glad tidings,

PAULOS, a servant of Jeshu Meshiha, called, and an apostle, who hath been separated unto the gospel of Aloha,

2 (which he had before promised by his prophets in holy writings, )

which from of old he had promised by the hand of the prophets, in the holy writings,

3 concerning his Son (come of David's seed according to flesh,

concerning his Son, who was born, according to the flesh, of the seed of the house of David,

4 marked out Son of God in power, according to [the] Spirit of holiness, by resurrection of [the] dead) Jesus Christ our Lord;

and is known (to be) the Son of Aloha by power, and by the Holy Spirit, who raised him from among the dead, Jeshu Meshiha our Lord:

5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship in behalf of his name, for obedience of faith among all the nations,

by whom we have received grace and apostleship among all nations, that they should become obedient unto the faith of his name:

6 among whom are ye also [the] called of Jesus Christ:

and you also are of them, called in Jeshu Meshiha:

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

To all who are in Ruma, beloved of Aloha, called and saints; peace and grace be with you from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

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

First, I praise my God through Jeshu Meshiha on behalf of you all, that your faith is heard (of) in all the world.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the glad tidings of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,

For a witness unto me is Aloha, whom I serve in the spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing at all time I remember you in my prayers.

10 always beseeching at my prayers, if any way now at least I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.

And I pray that from now there may be opened unto me the way, by the will of Aloha, to come to you.

11 For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to establish you;

For I greatly desire to see you, and to impart to you the gift of the Spirit,

12 that is, to have mutual comfort among you, each by the faith [which is] in the other, both yours and mine.

that thereby you may be established, and that together we may be comforted by your faith and mine.

13 But I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that I often proposed to come to you, (and have been hindered until the present time, ) that I might have some fruit among you too, even as among the other nations also.

BUT I will that you know, my brethren, that many times I have willed to come to you, and have been hindered until this;

14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to wise and unintelligent:

that among you also I may have fruit as among the rest of the nations of the Javnoyee and Barbaroyee, the wise and the foolish,

15 so, as far as depends on me, am I ready to announce the glad tidings to you also who [are] in Rome.

because to every man am I obligated to preach; and so am I urged to evangelize unto you also who are in Ruma.

16 For I am not ashamed of the glad tidings; for it is God's power to salvation, to every one that believes, both to Jew first and to Greek:

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of Aloha for the salvation of all who believe in him, whether of the Jihudoyee first, or of the Aramoyee:

17 for righteousness of God is revealed therein, on the principle of faith, to faith: according as it is written, But the just shall live by faith.

for the righteousness of Aloha in it is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The righteous by faith shall live.

18 For there is revealed wrath of God from heaven upon all impiety, and unrighteousness of men holding the truth in unrighteousness.

For the wrath of Aloha is revealed from heaven against all the unrighteousness and depravity of the sons of men, who the truth in unrighteousness detain.

19 Because what is known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested [it] to them,

Because the knowledge of Aloha is revealed in them; for Aloha revealed it in them.

20 — for from [the] world's creation the invisible things of him are perceived, being apprehended by the mind through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, — so as to render them inexcusable. (aïdios g126)

For the occult things of Aloha from the foundations of the world, unto his creatures by intelligence are apparent, and his power and his Godhead eternal, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios g126)

21 Because, knowing God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but fell into folly in their thoughts, and their heart without understanding was darkened:

For when they knew Aloha, they did not as Aloha glorify him and praise him, but became vain in their imaginations, and their heart was darkened, that they understood not.

22 professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

And while thinking in themselves that they were wise, they were fools.

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into [the] likeness of an image of corruptible man and of birds and quadrupeds and reptiles.

And they changed the glory of Aloha the Incorruptible into the likeness of the image of corruptible man, and into the likeness of birds and of four-footed (beasts) and of reptiles of the earth.

24 Wherefore God gave them up [also] in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies between themselves:

Because of this Aloha delivered them up to the unclean lusts of their hearts, that they would debase their bodies among them.

25 who changed the truth of God into falsehood, and honoured and served the creature more than him who had created [it], who is blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

And they changed the truth of Aloha into a lie, and worshipped and served the creatures rather than their Creator, to whom be praises and blessings for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile lusts; for both their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature;

WHEREFORE Aloha delivered them up to passions of vileness: for their females changed the use of their nature, and to what is not natural were used.

27 and in like manner the males also, leaving the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust towards one another; males with males working shame, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error which was fit.

And also their males likewise left the natural use of their females, and were inflamed with concupiscence one with another, and male with male wrought shamefulness, and the just retribution for their perverseness in themselves received.

28 And according as they did not think good to have God in [their] knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind to practise unseemly things;

And as they did not decide in themselves to know Aloha, so did Aloha cause them to be delivered up to a mind of vainness, and to do what is not fit;

29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,

being filled with all wickedness, and uncleanness, and rancour, and malice, and rapacity, and envy, and murder, and contention, and deceit, and evil imaginings, and murmurings,

30 back-biters, hateful to God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

and slanders, and hating of Aloha: vilifiers, inflated ones, boasters, inventors of evil things, mindless, disobedient to parents,

31 void of understanding, faithless, without natural affection, unmerciful;

(men) to whom a compact is nothing, and (who) neither love peace nor (have) mercy in them; who,

32 who knowing the righteous judgment of God, that they who do such things are worthy of death, not only practise them, but have fellow delight in those who do [them].

knowing the judgment of Aloha, that they who these things do, unto death are condemned, (yet) not only do them, but also participate with those who do them.
