Romans 1

1 Paul a servant of Christ Jesus a called apostle set apart for [the] gospel of God,

Paul the seruaut of Iesus Christ called to be an Apostle put a parte to preache the Gospell of God

2 which He promised beforehand through the prophets of Him in [the] Scriptures Holy

which he promysed afore by his Prophetes in the holy scriptures

3 concerning the Son of Him, who having come of [the] seed of David according to flesh,

that make mension of his sonne the which was begotte of the seed of David as pertayninge to the flesshe:

4 who having been declared Son of God in power according to [the] Spirit of holiness by resurrection [from the] dead, Jesus Christ the Lord of us,

and declared to be the sonne of God with power of the holy goost that sanctifieth sence ye tyme that Iesus Christ oure Lorde rose agayne from deeth

5 through whom we have received grace and apostleship unto obedience of faith among all the Gentiles on behalf of the name of Him,

by whom we have receaved grace and apostleshyppe to bringe all maner hethe people vnto obedience of the fayth that is in his name:

6 among whom are also you yourselves called of Jesus Christ;

of the which hethen are ye a part also which are Iesus christes by vocacio.

7 To all those being in Rome beloved of God to [those] called saints: Grace to you and peace from God [the] Father of us and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

To all you of Rome beloved of God and saynctes by callinge. Grace be with you and peace from God oure father and from the Lorde Iesus Christ.

8 First indeed I thank the God of mine through Jesus Christ (for *N(k)O*) all of you because the faith of you is being proclaimed in all the world;

Fyrst verely I thanke my God thorow Iesus Christ for you all because youre fayth is publisshed through out all the worlde.

9 Witness for me is God, whom I serve in the spirit of mine in the gospel of the Son of Him, how unceasingly mention of you I make always upon the prayers of mine

For God is my witnes whom I serve with my sprete in the Gospell of his sonne that with out ceasinge I make mencion of you alwayes in my prayers

10 imploring, if somehow now at last I will succeed by the will of God to come to you;

besechinge that at one tyme or another a prosperous iorney (by ye will of god) myght fortune me to come vnto you.

11 I long for to see you, that some I may impart gift to you spiritual to the strengthening of you,

For I longe to see you that I myght bestowe amoge you some spirituall gyfte to strength you with all:

12 that now is to be encouraged together among you through the among one another faith of you both and of me.

that is that I myght have consolacion together with you through the commen fayth which bothe ye and I have.

13 Not I do want now you to be ignorant, brothers, that many times I purposed to come to you and was hindered until the present, that some fruit I may have also among you even as even among the other Gentiles.

I wolde that ye shuld knowe brethre how that I have often tymes purposed to come vnto you (but have bene let hitherto) to have some frute amonge you as I have amonge other of ye Gentyls.

14 To Greeks both and to barbarians, to [the] wise both and to [the] foolish a debtor I am;

For I am detter both to the Grekes and to them which are no Grekes vnto the learned and also vnto the vnlearned.

15 Thus as to me myself [there is] readiness also to you who [are] in Rome to evangelise.

Lykewyse as moche as in me is I am redy to preache the Gospell to you of Rome also.

16 Not for I am ashamed of the gospel (of the Christ; *K*) [the] power for of God it is unto salvation to everyone who is believing — to Jew both first and to Greek.

For I am not ashamed of the Gospell of Christ because it is ye power of God vnto salvacio to all yt beleve namely to the Iewe and also to ye getyle.

17 [The] righteousness for of God in it is revealed from faith to faith even as it has been written: And the righteous by faith will live.

For by it ye rightewesnes which cometh of god is opened fro fayth to fayth. As it is written: The iust shall live by fayth.

18 Is revealed for [the] wrath of God from heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men the truth by unrighteousness suppressing,

For the wrath of God apereth from heven agaynst all vngodlynes and vnrightewesnes of me which withholde ye trueth in vnrightewesnes

19 because the known of God manifest is among them; God for to them has revealed [it].

seynge what maye be knowen of God that same is manifest amoge them. For God dyd shewe it vnto them.

20 The for invisible qualities of Him from [the] creation of [the] world by the things made being understood are clearly seen, the both eternal of Him power and divinity, for to be them without excuse. (aïdios g126)

So that his invisible thinges: that is to saye his eternall power and godhed are vnderstonde and sene by the workes from the creacion of the worlde. So that they are without excuse (aïdios g126)

21 For having known God not as God they glorified [Him] or were thankful, but they became futile in the thinking of them, and was darkened the foolish of them heart;

in as moche as when they knewe god they glorified him not as God nether were thakfull but wexed full of vanities in their imaginacions and their folisshe hertes were blynded.

22 Professing to be wise they became fools

When they couted them selves wyse they became foles

23 and they changed the glory of the immortal God into a likeness of an image of mortal man and birds and quadrupeds and creeping things.

and turned the glory of the immortall god vnto the similitude of the ymage of mortall man and of byrdes and foure foted beastes and of serpentes.

24 Therefore (and *k*) gave up them God in the desires of the hearts of them to impurity to dishonor the bodies of them between (themselves, *N(k)O*)

Wherfore god lykewyse gave the vp vnto their hertes lustes vnto vnclennes to defyle their awne boddyes bitwene them selves:

25 who changed the truth of God into the falsehood, and they reverenced and they served the created thing beyond the [One] having created [it], who is blessed to the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)

which tourned his truthe vnto a lye and worshipped and served the creatures more then ye maker which is blessed for ever. Ame. (aiōn g165)

26 Because of this gave up them God to passions of dishonor; Even for females of them changed the natural use into that contrary to nature,

For this cause god gave them vp vnto shamfull lustes. For even their wemen did chaunge the naturall vse vnto the vnnaturall.

27 Likewise then also the males having left the natural use of the female were inflamed in the desire of them toward one another, males with males the shame working out, and the recompense which was fitting of the error of them in themselves receiving.

And lyke wyse also the men lefte the naturall vse of the woma and bret in their lustes one on another. And man with man wrought filthynes and receaved in them selves the rewarde of their erroure as it was accordinge.

28 And even as not they did see fit God to have in [their] knowledge, gave up them God to a depraved mind to do the [things] not being proper,

And as it semed not good vnto them to be aknowen of God even so God delivered them vp vnto a leawde mynd yt they shuld do tho thinges which were not comly

29 filled with all unrighteousness (sexual immorality *K*) wickedness, covetousness, malice, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness, gossips

beinge full of all vnrighteous doinge of fornicacio wickednes coveteousnes maliciousnes full of envie morther debate disseyte evill codicioned whisperers

30 slanderers, hateful to God, insolent arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, to parents disobedient,

backbyters haters of God doers of wroge proude bosters bringers vp of evyll thinges disobedient to father and mother

31 foolish, untrustworthy, heartless (implacable, *K*) unmerciful,

with out vnderstondinge covenaunte breakers vnlovinge trucebreakers and merciles.

32 who the righteous decree of God having known that those such things doing worthy of death are, not only them they are practicing but also they are approving of those practicing [them].

Which me though they knew the rightewesnes of God how that they which soche thinges commyt are worthy of deeth yet not only do the same but also have pleasure in them that do them.
