|  | 1:1 | Paul, a servant of Yahshua Messiah, called to be an apostle, separated unto the good news of Elohim, | 
|  | 1:2 | (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) | 
|  | 1:3 | Concerning his Son Yahshua Messiah our Master, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; | 
|  | 1:4 | And declared to be the Son of Yahweh with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: | 
|  | 1:5 | By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: | 
|  | 1:6 | Among whom are ye also the called of Yahshua Messiah: | 
|  | 1:7 | To all that be in Rome, beloved of Elohim, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from Yahweh our Father, and the Master Yahshua Messiah. | 
|  | 1:8 | First, I thank my Elohim through Yahshua Messiah for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. | 
|  | 1:9 | For Elohim is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the good news of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; | 
|  | 1:10 | Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of Elohim to come unto you. | 
|  | 1:11 | For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; | 
|  | 1:12 | That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me. | 
|  | 1:13 | Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto, ) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles. | 
|  | 1:14 | I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise. | 
|  | 1:15 | So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the good news to you that are at Rome also. | 
|  | 1:16 | For I am not ashamed of the good news of Messiah: for it is the power of Elohim unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. | 
|  | 1:17 | For therein is the righteousness of Elohim revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. | 
|  | 1:18 | For the wrath of Elohim is revealed from heaven against all wickedness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; | 
|  | 1:19 | Because that which may be known of Elohim is manifest in them; for Elohim hath shewed it unto them. | 
|  | 1:20 | 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 Majesty; so that they are without excuse: | 
|  | 1:21 | Because that, when they knew Elohim, they glorified him not as Elohim, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. | 
|  | 1:22 | Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, | 
|  | 1:23 | And changed the glory of the uncorruptible Elohim into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. | 
|  | 1:24 | Wherefore Elohim also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: | 
|  | 1:25 | Who changed the truth of Elohim into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. | 
|  | 1:26 | For this cause Elohim gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: | 
|  | 1:27 | 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. | 
|  | 1:28 | And even as they did not like to retain Elohim in their knowledge, Elohim gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; | 
|  | 1:29 | Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, | 
|  | 1:30 | Backbiters, haters of Elohim, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, | 
|  | 1:31 | Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: | 
|  | 1:32 | Who knowing the judgment of Elohim, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. |
