Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
īśvaro nijaputramadhi yaṁ susaṁvādaṁ bhaviṣyadvādibhi rdharmmagranthe pratiśrutavān taṁ susaṁvādaṁ pracārayituṁ pṛthakkṛta āhūtaḥ preritaśca prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya sevako yaḥ paulaḥ
2 (Which he had promised before by his prophets in the holy scriptures, )
sa romānagarasthān īśvarapriyān āhūtāṁśca pavitralokān prati patraṁ likhati|
3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
asmākaṁ sa prabhu ryīśuḥ khrīṣṭaḥ śārīrikasambandhena dāyūdo vaṁśodbhavaḥ
4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit (pneuma) of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
pavitrasyātmanaḥ sambandhena ceśvarasya prabhāvavān putra iti śmaśānāt tasyotthānena pratipannaṁ|
5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
aparaṁ yeṣāṁ madhye yīśunā khrīṣṭena yūyamapyāhūtāste 'nyadeśīyalokāstasya nāmni viśvasya nideśagrāhiṇo yathā bhavanti
6 Among whom are all of you also the called of Jesus Christ:
tadabhiprāyeṇa vayaṁ tasmād anugrahaṁ preritatvapadañca prāptāḥ|
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.
tātenāsmākam īśvareṇa prabhuṇā yīśukhrīṣṭena ca yuṣmabhyam anugrahaḥ śāntiśca pradīyetāṁ|
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
prathamataḥ sarvvasmin jagati yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsasya prakāśitatvād ahaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sarvveṣāṁ nimittaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasya nāma gṛhlan īśvarasya dhanyavādaṁ karomi|
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit (pneuma) in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;
aparam īśvarasya prasādād bahukālāt paraṁ sāmprataṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ yātuṁ kathamapi yat suyogaṁ prāpnomi, etadarthaṁ nirantaraṁ nāmānyuccārayan nijāsu sarvvaprārthanāsu sarvvadā nivedayāmi,
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.
etasmin yamahaṁ tatputrīyasusaṁvādapracāraṇena manasā paricarāmi sa īśvaro mama sākṣī vidyate|
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end all of you may be established;
yato yuṣmākaṁ mama ca viśvāsena vayam ubhaye yathā śāntiyuktā bhavāma iti kāraṇād
12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
yuṣmākaṁ sthairyyakaraṇārthaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ kiñcitparamārthadānadānāya yuṣmān sākṣāt karttuṁ madīyā vāñchā|
13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let until now, ) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
he bhrātṛgaṇa bhinnadeśīyalokānāṁ madhye yadvat tadvad yuṣmākaṁ madhyepi yathā phalaṁ bhuñje tadabhiprāyeṇa muhurmuhu ryuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ gantum udyato'haṁ kintu yāvad adya tasmin gamane mama vighno jāta iti yūyaṁ yad ajñātāstiṣṭhatha tadaham ucitaṁ na budhye|
14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
ahaṁ sabhyāsabhyānāṁ vidvadavidvatāñca sarvveṣām ṛṇī vidye|
15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
ataeva romānivāsināṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpe'pi yathāśakti susaṁvādaṁ pracārayitum aham udyatosmi|
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
yataḥ khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādo mama lajjāspadaṁ nahi sa īśvarasya śaktisvarūpaḥ san ā yihūdīyebhyo 'nyajātīyān yāvat sarvvajātīyānāṁ madhye yaḥ kaścid tatra viśvasiti tasyaiva trāṇaṁ janayati|
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
yataḥ pratyayasya samaparimāṇam īśvaradattaṁ puṇyaṁ tatsusaṁvāde prakāśate| tadadhi dharmmapustakepi likhitamidaṁ "puṇyavān jano viśvāsena jīviṣyati"|
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
ataeva ye mānavāḥ pāpakarmmaṇā satyatāṁ rundhanti teṣāṁ sarvvasya durācaraṇasyādharmmasya ca viruddhaṁ svargād īśvarasya kopaḥ prakāśate|
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has showed it unto them.
yata īśvaramadhi yadyad jñeyaṁ tad īśvaraḥ svayaṁ tān prati prakāśitavān tasmāt teṣām agocaraṁ nahi|
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: (aïdios g126)
phalatastasyānantaśaktīśvaratvādīnyadṛśyānyapi sṛṣṭikālam ārabhya karmmasu prakāśamānāni dṛśyante tasmāt teṣāṁ doṣaprakṣālanasya panthā nāsti| (aïdios g126)
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.
aparam īśvaraṁ jñātvāpi te tam īśvarajñānena nādriyanta kṛtajñā vā na jātāḥ; tasmāt teṣāṁ sarvve tarkā viphalībhūtāḥ, aparañca teṣāṁ vivekaśūnyāni manāṁsi timire magnāni|
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
te svān jñānino jñātvā jñānahīnā abhavan
23 And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
anaśvarasyeśvarasya gauravaṁ vihāya naśvaramanuṣyapaśupakṣyurogāmiprabhṛterākṛtiviśiṣṭapratimāstairāśritāḥ|
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
itthaṁ ta īśvarasya satyatāṁ vihāya mṛṣāmatam āśritavantaḥ saccidānandaṁ sṛṣṭikarttāraṁ tyaktvā sṛṣṭavastunaḥ pūjāṁ sevāñca kṛtavantaḥ; (aiōn g165)
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. (aiōn g165)
iti hetorīśvarastān kukriyāyāṁ samarpya nijanijakucintābhilāṣābhyāṁ svaṁ svaṁ śarīraṁ parasparam apamānitaṁ karttum adadāt|
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:
īśvareṇa teṣu kvabhilāṣe samarpiteṣu teṣāṁ yoṣitaḥ svābhāvikācaraṇam apahāya viparītakṛtye prāvarttanta;
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.
tathā puruṣā api svābhāvikayoṣitsaṅgamaṁ vihāya parasparaṁ kāmakṛśānunā dagdhāḥ santaḥ pumāṁsaḥ puṁbhiḥ sākaṁ kukṛtye samāsajya nijanijabhrānteḥ samucitaṁ phalam alabhanta|
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;
te sveṣāṁ manaḥsvīśvarāya sthānaṁ dātum anicchukāstato hetorīśvarastān prati duṣṭamanaskatvam avihitakriyatvañca dattavān|
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, ill will; whisperers,
ataeva te sarvve 'nyāyo vyabhicāro duṣṭatvaṁ lobho jighāṁsā īrṣyā vadho vivādaścāturī kumatirityādibhi rduṣkarmmabhiḥ paripūrṇāḥ santaḥ
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
karṇejapā apavādina īśvaradveṣakā hiṁsakā ahaṅkāriṇa ātmaślāghinaḥ kukarmmotpādakāḥ pitrorājñālaṅghakā
31 Without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, refusing to reconcile, unmerciful:
avicārakā niyamalaṅghinaḥ sneharahitā atidveṣiṇo nirdayāśca jātāḥ|
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.
ye janā etādṛśaṁ karmma kurvvanti taeva mṛtiyogyā īśvarasya vicāramīdṛśaṁ jñātvāpi ta etādṛśaṁ karmma svayaṁ kurvvanti kevalamiti nahi kintu tādṛśakarmmakāriṣu lokeṣvapi prīyante|
