Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, set apart to preach the gospel of God,

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

2 which he had promised before by his prophets in the Holy Scriptures,

sa rōmānagarasthān īśvarapriyān āhūtāṁśca pavitralōkān 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 śārīrikasambandhēna dāyūdō vaṁśōdbhavaḥ

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 sambandhēna cēśvarasya prabhāvavān putra iti śmaśānāt tasyōtthānēna 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 yēṣāṁ madhyē yīśunā khrīṣṭēna yūyamapyāhūtāstē 'nyadēśīyalōkāstasya nāmni viśvasya nidēśagrāhiṇō yathā bhavanti

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

tadabhiprāyēṇa vayaṁ tasmād anugrahaṁ prēritatvapadañca 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.

tātēnāsmākam īśvarēṇa prabhuṇā yīśukhrīṣṭēna ca yuṣmabhyam anugrahaḥ śāntiśca pradīyētāṁ|

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 sarvvēṣāṁ nimittaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasya nāma gr̥hlan īśvarasya dhanyavādaṁ karōmi|

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 suyōgaṁ prāpnōmi, ētadarthaṁ nirantaraṁ nāmānyuccārayan nijāsu sarvvaprārthanāsu sarvvadā nivēdayāmi,

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.

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, which may be for your confirmation;

yatō yuṣmākaṁ mama ca viśvāsēna vayam ubhayē 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.

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 I am debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the unwise.

ahaṁ sabhyāsabhyānāṁ vidvadavidvatāñca sarvvēṣām r̥ṇī vidyē|

15 So, according to my ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also in Rome.

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

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 susaṁvādō mama lajjāspadaṁ nahi sa īśvarasya śaktisvarūpaḥ san ā yihūdīyēbhyō 'nyajātīyān yāvat sarvvajātīyānāṁ madhyē 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 tatsusaṁvādē prakāśatē| tadadhi dharmmapustakēpi likhitamidaṁ "puṇyavān janō viśvāsēna 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.

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

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest within them; for God made it manifest to them.

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

phalatastasyānantaśaktīśvaratvādīnyadr̥śyānyapi sr̥ṣṭikālam ārabhya karmmasu prakāśamānāni dr̥śyantē tasmāt tēṣāṁ dōṣaprakṣālanasya 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 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 became fools,

tē svān jñāninō 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.

anaśvarasyēśvarasya gauravaṁ vihāya naśvaramanuṣyapaśupakṣyurōgāmiprabhr̥tērākr̥tiviśiṣṭapratimāstairāśritāḥ|

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 mr̥ṣāmatam āśritavantaḥ saccidānandaṁ sr̥ṣṭikarttāraṁ tyaktvā sr̥ṣṭavastunaḥ pūjāṁ sēvāñca kr̥tavantaḥ; (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 hētōrīśvarastān 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,

īśvarēṇa tēṣu kvabhilāṣē samarpitēṣu tēṣāṁ yōṣitaḥ svābhāvikācaraṇam apahāya viparītakr̥tyē 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 svābhāvikayōṣitsaṅgamaṁ vihāya parasparaṁ kāmakr̥śānunā dagdhāḥ santaḥ pumāṁsaḥ puṁbhiḥ sākaṁ kukr̥tyē samāsajya nijanijabhrāntēḥ 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;

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

29 being filled with all unrighteousness, malice, covetousness, wickedness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; backbiters,

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

30 slanderers, hated of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of mischief, disobedient to parents,

karṇējapā apavādina īśvaradvēṣakā hiṁsakā ahaṅkāriṇa ātmaślāghinaḥ kukarmmōtpādakāḥ pitrōrājñālaṅghakā

31 senseless, faithless, without natural affection, without pity;

avicārakā niyamalaṅghinaḥ snēharahitā atidvēṣiṇō 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.

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