Paulos, a slave of Yahusha Mâshı̂yach, called to be an apostolos, separated unto the gospel of Êlôhîym,
(Which he had promised before by his prophets in the sacred scriptures,)
Concerning his son Yahusha Mâshı̂yach our Âdônây, who was made of the seed of Dâwid according to the flesh;
And declared to be the son of Êlôhîym with power, according to the spirit of sacredness, by the resurrection from the dead:
By whom we have received grace and commission, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
Among whom you are also the called by Yahusha Mâshı̂yach:
To all that are in Rómi, beloved of Êlôhîym, called to be saints: grace to you and peace from Êlôhîym our father, and Âdônây Yahusha Mâshı̂yach.
First, I thank my Êlôhîym through Yahusha Mâshı̂yach for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
For Êlôhîym is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his son that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;
Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of Êlôhîym to come unto you.
For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, that you may be established;
That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
Now I do not want to have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was prevented beforehand,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
I am indebted to both the Éllin, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rómi also.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Mâshı̂yach: for it is the power of Êlôhîym unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Yahûdı̂y first, and also to the Éllin.
For is in the righteousness of Êlôhîym revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith.
For the wrath of Êlôhîym is revealed from heaven against all wickedness and injustice of men, who hold the truth in injustice;
Because that which may be known of Êlôhîym is manifest in them; for Êlôhîym has showed it unto them.
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 divinity; so that they are without excuse:
Because that, when they knew Êlôhîym, they did not glorify him as Êlôhîym, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the incorruptible Êlôhîym into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
Therefore Êlôhîym also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Who changed the truth of Êlôhîym into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is bârak for ever. Âmên.
For this cause Êlôhîym gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
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.
And even as they did not like to keep Êlôhîym in their knowledge, Êlôhîym gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Being filled with all injustice, pornía, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Backbiters, haters of Êlôhîym, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Who knowing the judgment of Êlôhîym, that they who commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
