Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, set apart to preach 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 the gospel concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David as to the flesh,
asmākaṁ sa prabhu ryīśuḥ khrīṣṭaḥ śārīrikasambandhena dāyūdo vaṁśodbhavaḥ
4 and shown with power to be the Son of God as to his spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord;
pavitrasyātmanaḥ sambandhena ceśvarasya prabhāvavān putra iti śmaśānāt tasyotthānena pratipannaṁ|
5 through whom we received grace and the office of an apostle in behalf of his name, in order to produce obedience to the faith among all nations;
aparaṁ yeṣāṁ madhye yīśunā khrīṣṭena yūyamapyāhūtāste 'nyadeśīyalokāstasya nāmni viśvasya nideśagrāhiṇo yathā bhavanti
6 among whom are ye also, the called of Jesus Christ;
tadabhiprāyeṇa vayaṁ tasmād anugrahaṁ preritatvapadañca prāptāḥ|
7 to all the beloved of God at Rome, called, holy: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
tātenāsmākam īśvareṇa prabhuṇā yīśukhrīṣṭena ca yuṣmabhyam anugrahaḥ śāntiśca pradīyetāṁ|
8 In the first place, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, 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 in the gospel of his Son, how constantly 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 supplicating that, if it be possible, I may at last through the will of God be favored with an opportunity of coming to you.
etasmin yamahaṁ tatputrīyasusaṁvādapracāraṇena manasā paricarāmi sa īśvaro mama sākṣī vidyate|
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, which may be for your confirmation;
yato yuṣmākaṁ mama ca viśvāsena vayam ubhaye yathā śāntiyuktā bhavāma iti kāraṇād
12 that is, that I may be edified among you, and you also, through each other's faith, both yours and mine.
yuṣmākaṁ sthairyyakaraṇārthaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ kiñcitparamārthadānadānāya yuṣmān sākṣāt karttuṁ madīyā vāñchā|
13 But I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I often purposed to come to you, though I have been hindered hitherto, that I might have some fruit of my labors among you also, as among the 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 Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the unwise.
ahaṁ sabhyāsabhyānāṁ vidvadavidvatāñca sarvveṣām ṛṇī vidye|
15 So, according to my ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also in Rome.
ataeva romānivāsināṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpe'pi yathāśakti susaṁvādaṁ pracārayitum aham udyatosmi|
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel; for to every believer, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, it is the power of God unto salvation.
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 revealed the righteousness which is of God from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous 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 impiety and unrighteousness of men, who keep down 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 within them; for God made it manifest to them.
yata īśvaramadhi yadyad jñeyaṁ tad īśvaraḥ svayaṁ tān prati prakāśitavān tasmāt teṣām agocaraṁ nahi|
20 For, ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes, even his eternal power and divinity, being perceived from his works, are clearly seen, so that they might be without excuse. (aïdios g126)
phalatastasyānantaśaktīśvaratvādīnyadṛśyānyapi sṛṣṭikālam ārabhya karmmasu prakāśamānāni dṛśyante tasmāt teṣāṁ doṣaprakṣālanasya panthā nāsti| (aïdios g126)
21 Because though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful to him; but became perverse in their reasonings, and their senseless minds were 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 to be wise, they became fools,
te svān jñānino jñātvā jñānahīnā abhavan
23 and for the glory of the incorruptible God they substituted images of corruptible man, and of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.
anaśvarasyeśvarasya gauravaṁ vihāya naśvaramanuṣyapaśupakṣyurogāmiprabhṛterākṛtiviśiṣṭapratimāstairāśritāḥ|
24 Wherefore God also gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to debase their bodies with one another;
itthaṁ ta īśvarasya satyatāṁ vihāya mṛṣāmatam āśritavantaḥ saccidānandaṁ sṛṣṭikarttāraṁ tyaktvā sṛṣṭavastunaḥ pūjāṁ sevāñca kṛtavantaḥ; (aiōn g165)
25 because they changed the true God for false gods, and adored and worshipped created things rather 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 to vile passions. For even their women indulged in unnatural lust,
īśvareṇa teṣu kvabhilāṣe samarpiteṣu teṣāṁ yoṣitaḥ svābhāvikācaraṇam apahāya viparītakṛtye prāvarttanta;
27 and in like manner the men also, neglecting the natural use of the female, burned with lust for one another, men with men practising that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due recompense of their error.
tathā puruṣā api svābhāvikayoṣitsaṅgamaṁ vihāya parasparaṁ kāmakṛśānunā dagdhāḥ santaḥ pumāṁsaḥ puṁbhiḥ sākaṁ kukṛtye samāsajya nijanijabhrānteḥ samucitaṁ phalam alabhanta|
28 And as they did not choose to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do things which are shameful;
te sveṣāṁ manaḥsvīśvarāya sthānaṁ dātum anicchukāstato hetorīśvarastān prati duṣṭamanaskatvam avihitakriyatvañca dattavān|
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, malice, covetousness, wickedness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; backbiters,
ataeva te sarvve 'nyāyo vyabhicāro duṣṭatvaṁ lobho jighāṁsā īrṣyā vadho vivādaścāturī kumatirityādibhi rduṣkarmmabhiḥ paripūrṇāḥ santaḥ
30 slanderers, hated of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of mischief, disobedient to parents,
karṇejapā apavādina īśvaradveṣakā hiṁsakā ahaṅkāriṇa ātmaślāghinaḥ kukarmmotpādakāḥ pitrorājñālaṅghakā
31 senseless, faithless, without natural affection, without pity;
avicārakā niyamalaṅghinaḥ sneharahitā atidveṣiṇo nirdayāśca jātāḥ|
32 who, although knowing the ordinance of God, that they who practise such things deserve death, not only do them themselves, but approve of those who do them.
ye janā etādṛśaṁ karmma kurvvanti taeva mṛtiyogyā īśvarasya vicāramīdṛśaṁ jñātvāpi ta etādṛśaṁ karmma svayaṁ kurvvanti kevalamiti nahi kintu tādṛśakarmmakāriṣu lokeṣvapi prīyante|
