Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, having been separated to the good news of God,

īśvarō nijaputramadhi yaṁ susaṁvādaṁ bhaviṣyadvādibhi rdharmmagranthē pratiśrutavān taṁ susaṁvādaṁ pracārayituṁ pr̥thakkr̥ta āhūtaḥ prēritaśca prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya sēvakō yaḥ paulaḥ

2 which He announced before through His prophets in holy writings,

sa rōmānagarasthān īśvarapriyān āhūtāṁśca pavitralōkān prati patraṁ likhati|

3 concerning His Son—who has come of the seed of David according to the flesh,

asmākaṁ sa prabhu ryīśuḥ khrīṣṭaḥ śārīrikasambandhēna dāyūdō vaṁśōdbhavaḥ

4 who is marked out [as the] Son of God in power, according to the Spirit of sanctification, by the resurrection from the dead—Jesus Christ our Lord;

pavitrasyātmanaḥ sambandhēna cēśvarasya prabhāvavān putra iti śmaśānāt tasyōtthānēna pratipannaṁ|

5 through whom we received grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, in behalf of His Name;

aparaṁ yēṣāṁ madhyē yīśunā khrīṣṭēna yūyamapyāhūtāstē 'nyadēśīyalōkāstasya nāmni viśvasya nidēśagrāhiṇō yathā bhavanti

6 among whom are also you, the called of Jesus Christ;

tadabhiprāyēṇa vayaṁ tasmād anugrahaṁ prēritatvapadañca prāptāḥ|

7 to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called holy ones: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

tātēnāsmākam īśvarēṇa prabhuṇā yīśukhrīṣṭēna ca yuṣmabhyam anugrahaḥ śāntiśca pradīyētāṁ|

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

prathamataḥ sarvvasmin jagati yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsasya prakāśitatvād ahaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sarvvēṣāṁ nimittaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasya nāma gr̥hlan īśvarasya dhanyavādaṁ karōmi|

9 for God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of His Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,

aparam īśvarasya prasādād bahukālāt paraṁ sāmprataṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ yātuṁ kathamapi yat suyōgaṁ prāpnōmi, ētadarthaṁ nirantaraṁ nāmānyuccārayan nijāsu sarvvaprārthanāsu sarvvadā nivēdayāmi,

10 always in my prayers imploring, if by any means now at length I will have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come to you,

ētasmin yamahaṁ tatputrīyasusaṁvādapracāraṇēna manasā paricarāmi sa īśvarō mama sākṣī vidyatē|

11 for I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that you may be established;

yatō yuṣmākaṁ mama ca viśvāsēna vayam ubhayē yathā śāntiyuktā bhavāma iti kāraṇād

12 and that is, that I may be comforted together among you, through faith in one another, both yours and mine.

yuṣmākaṁ sthairyyakaraṇārthaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ kiñcitparamārthadānadānāya yuṣmān sākṣāt karttuṁ madīyā vāñchā|

13 And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, that many times I purposed to come to you—and was hindered until the present time—that some fruit I might have also among you, even as also among the other nations.

hē bhrātr̥gaṇa bhinnadēśīyalōkānāṁ madhyē yadvat tadvad yuṣmākaṁ madhyēpi yathā phalaṁ bhuñjē tadabhiprāyēṇa muhurmuhu ryuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ gantum udyatō'haṁ kintu yāvad adya tasmin gamanē mama vighnō jāta iti yūyaṁ yad ajñātāstiṣṭhatha tadaham ucitaṁ na budhyē|

14 Both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to wise and to thoughtless, I am a debtor,

ahaṁ sabhyāsabhyānāṁ vidvadavidvatāñca sarvvēṣām r̥ṇī vidyē|

15 so, as much as in me is, I am ready also to you who [are] in Rome to proclaim good news,

ataēva rōmānivāsināṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpē'pi yathāśakti susaṁvādaṁ pracārayitum aham udyatōsmi|

16 for I am not ashamed of the good news of the Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation to everyone who is believing, both to Jew first, and to Greek.

yataḥ khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādō mama lajjāspadaṁ nahi sa īśvarasya śaktisvarūpaḥ san ā yihūdīyēbhyō 'nyajātīyān yāvat sarvvajātīyānāṁ madhyē yaḥ kaścid tatra viśvasiti tasyaiva trāṇaṁ janayati|

17 For the righteousness of God in it is revealed from faith to faith, according as it has been written: “And the righteous one will live by faith,”

yataḥ pratyayasya samaparimāṇam īśvaradattaṁ puṇyaṁ tatsusaṁvādē prakāśatē| tadadhi dharmmapustakēpi likhitamidaṁ "puṇyavān janō viśvāsēna jīviṣyati"|

18 for the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven on all impiety and unrighteousness of men, holding down the truth in unrighteousness.

ataēva yē mānavāḥ pāpakarmmaṇā satyatāṁ rundhanti tēṣāṁ sarvvasya durācaraṇasyādharmmasya ca viruddhaṁ svargād īśvarasya kōpaḥ prakāśatē|

19 Because that which is known of God is revealed among them, for God revealed [it] to them,

yata īśvaramadhi yadyad jñēyaṁ tad īśvaraḥ svayaṁ tān prati prakāśitavān tasmāt tēṣām agōcaraṁ nahi|

20 for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world, by the things made being understood, are plainly seen, both His eternal power and Godhead—to their being inexcusable; (aïdios g126)

phalatastasyānantaśaktīśvaratvādīnyadr̥śyānyapi sr̥ṣṭikālam ārabhya karmmasu prakāśamānāni dr̥śyantē tasmāt tēṣāṁ dōṣaprakṣālanasya panthā nāsti| (aïdios g126)

21 because, having known God they did not glorify [Him] as God, nor gave thanks, but were made vain in their reasonings, and their unintelligent heart was darkened,

aparam īśvaraṁ jñātvāpi tē tam īśvarajñānēna nādriyanta kr̥tajñā vā na jātāḥ; tasmāt tēṣāṁ sarvvē tarkā viphalībhūtāḥ, aparañca tēṣāṁ vivēkaśūnyāni manāṁsi timirē magnāni|

22 professing to be wise, they were made fools,

tē svān jñāninō jñātvā jñānahīnā abhavan

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

anaśvarasyēśvarasya gauravaṁ vihāya naśvaramanuṣyapaśupakṣyurōgāmiprabhr̥tērākr̥tiviśiṣṭapratimāstairāśritāḥ|

24 For this reason also God gave them up, in the desires of their hearts, to uncleanness, to dishonor their bodies among themselves;

itthaṁ ta īśvarasya satyatāṁ vihāya mr̥ṣāmatam āśritavantaḥ saccidānandaṁ sr̥ṣṭikarttāraṁ tyaktvā sr̥ṣṭavastunaḥ pūjāṁ sēvāñca kr̥tavantaḥ; (aiōn g165)

25 who changed the truth of God into the lie, and honored and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for all ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)

iti hētōrīśvarastān kukriyāyāṁ samarpya nijanijakucintābhilāṣābhyāṁ svaṁ svaṁ śarīraṁ parasparam apamānitaṁ karttum adadāt|

26 Because of this God gave them up to dishonorable affections, for even their females changed the natural use into that against nature;

īśvarēṇa tēṣu kvabhilāṣē samarpitēṣu tēṣāṁ yōṣitaḥ svābhāvikācaraṇam apahāya viparītakr̥tyē prāvarttanta;

27 and in like manner also the males having left the natural use of the female, burned in their longing toward one another; males with males working shame, and the repayment of their error that was fit, in themselves receiving.

tathā puruṣā api svābhāvikayōṣitsaṅgamaṁ vihāya parasparaṁ kāmakr̥śānunā dagdhāḥ santaḥ pumāṁsaḥ puṁbhiḥ sākaṁ kukr̥tyē samāsajya nijanijabhrāntēḥ samucitaṁ phalam alabhanta|

28 And according as they did not approve of having God in knowledge, God gave them up to a disapproved mind, to do the things not seemly;

tē svēṣāṁ manaḥsvīśvarāya sthānaṁ dātum anicchukāstatō hētōrīśvarastān prati duṣṭamanaskatvam avihitakriyatvañca dattavān|

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

ataēva tē sarvvē 'nyāyō vyabhicārō duṣṭatvaṁ lōbhō jighāṁsā īrṣyā vadhō vivādaścāturī kumatirityādibhi rduṣkarmmabhiḥ paripūrṇāḥ santaḥ

30 evil-speakers, God-haters, insulting, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

karṇējapā apavādina īśvaradvēṣakā hiṁsakā ahaṅkāriṇa ātmaślāghinaḥ kukarmmōtpādakāḥ pitrōrājñālaṅghakā

31 unintelligent, faithless, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful;

avicārakā niyamalaṅghinaḥ snēharahitā atidvēṣiṇō nirdayāśca jātāḥ|

32 who the righteous judgment of God having known—that those practicing such things are worthy of death—not only do them, but also have delight with those practicing them.

yē janā ētādr̥śaṁ karmma kurvvanti taēva mr̥tiyōgyā īśvarasya vicāramīdr̥śaṁ jñātvāpi ta ētādr̥śaṁ karmma svayaṁ kurvvanti kēvalamiti nahi kintu tādr̥śakarmmakāriṣu lōkēṣvapi prīyantē|
