Romans

Chapter 1

1 PAUL, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, and chosen to proclaim the gospel of God

2 Which was promised from early days by his prophets in the holy scriptures,

3 Concerning his son who was born in the flesh of the seed of the house of David,

4 And who came to be known as the Son of God with power and with the Holy Spirit, because he arose from the dead, and he is Jesus Christ our LORD,

5 And by him we have received grace and apostleship among all the Gentiles, so that they may hear the faith which is under his name,

6 And in which you also are of them, and are called by Jesus Christ;

7 To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called and sanctified: Grace and peace be unto you from God our Father, and from our LORD Jesus Christ.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith has been heard of throughout the world.

9 For God, whom I serve in spirit in the gospel of his Son, is my witness that unceasingly I make mention of you in my prayers;

10 Beseeching that, if the way is open to me by the will of God, I may come to you.

11 For I long to see you, and to impart to you the gift of the Spirit, in order that you may be strengthened by it,

12 And that we may be comforted together by our mutual faith.

13 Now I want you to know, my brethren, that often I have wanted to come to you, but I have been prevented thus far, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles,

14 Greeks and Barbarians, the wise and the unwise; for it is my duty to preach to everybody.

15 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes; whether they are Jews first, or Arameans (Syrians). *

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The righteous shall live by faith.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all the iniquity and wickedness of men who unjustly suppress the truth;

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifested to them for God has revealed it unto them.

20 For, from the very creation of the world, the invisible things of God have been clearly seen and understood by his creations, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.

21 For they knew God and did not glorify him and give thanks to him as God, but became vain in their imaginations, and their hearts were darkened so that they could not understand.

22 And while they thought within themselves that they were wise, they became fools,

23 And they have changed the glory of the uncorruptible God for an image made in the likeness of corruptible man, and in the likeness of birds, and of four-footed beasts, and of creeping things on the earth.

24 That is why God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:

25 And they have changed the truth of God for lies, and worshipped and served the created things more than their Creator to whom belong glory and blessings for ever. Amen.

26 Therefore God has given them up to vile passions: for even their women have changed the natural use of their sex into that which is unnatural:

27 And likewise also their men have left the natural use of the women and have run wild with lust toward one another, male with male committing shameful acts, and receiving in themselves the due recompense of their error.

28 And as they did not consent in themselves to know God, God has given them over to a weak mind, to do the things which should not be done; as,

29 Being filled with all manner of iniquity, fornication, bitterness, malice, extortion, envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil thoughts,

30 Slanderers, backbiters, haters of God, revilers, proud boasters, inventors of evil things, the weak-minded, disobedient to their parents;

31 These have no respect for a covenant. They know neither love nor peace, nor is there mercy in them;

32 Knowing the judgment of God, that those who commit such things, he condemns to death, they not only do them, but also associate with those who practice them.

1 Paulus3972, ein Knecht1401 JEsu2424 Christi2316, berufen2822 zum Apostel652, ausgesondert873, zu1519 predigen das Evangelium2098 Gottes5547,

2 welches er zuvor verheißen hat4279 durch1223 seine Propheten4396 in1722 der3739 Heiligen40 Schrift1124,

3 von1537 seinem Sohn, der2596 geboren ist1096 von dem2257 Samen4690 Davids1138 nach4012 dem3588 Fleisch4561

4 und kräftiglich erweiset ein Sohn Gottes2316 nach dem Geist4151, der da1722 heiliget, seit der Zeit2596 er3724 auferstanden386 ist von1537 den Toten3498, nämlich JEsus Christus, unser HErr

5 (durch1223 welchen wir haben empfangen2983 Gnade5485 und2532 Apostelamt651, unter1519 allen3956 Heiden1484 den3739 Gehorsam5218 des846 Glaubens4102 aufzurichten unter1722 seinem Namen3686,

6 welcher3739 ihr2075 zum Teil auch2532 seid5210, die da1722 berufen sind2822 von JEsu2424 Christo5547):

7 Allen3956, die zu1722 Rom4516 sind5607, den Liebsten27 Gottes2316 und2532 berufenen2822 Heiligen40: Gnade5485 sei mit euch5213 und2532 Friede1515 von575 GOtt2316, unserm2257 Vater3962, und dem HErrn2962 JEsus2424 Christus5547!

8 Aufs erste danke2168 ich meinem3450 GOtt2316 durch1223 JEsum2424 Christum5547 euer5216 aller3956 halben5228, daß3754 man von3303 eurem5216 Glauben4102 in1722 aller3650 Welt2889 saget.

9 Denn1063 GOtt2316 ist2076 mein3450 Zeuge3144, welchem3739 ich846 diene3000 in1722 meinem3450 Geist4151 am1722 Evangelium2098 von1909 seinem Sohn, daß5613 ich3450 ohne Unterlaß89 euer5216 gedenke4160

10 und allezeit in1722 meinem Gebet flehe1189, ob sich‘s einmal zutragen wollte2137, daß4458 ich zu4314 euch5209 käme2064 durch Gottes2316 Willen2307.

11 Denn1063 mich verlanget, euch5209 zu sehen1492, auf1519 daß2443 ich euch5213 mitteile3330 etwas5100 geistlicher4152 Gabe5486, euch5209 zu stärken4741,

12 das5124 ist2076, daß1223 ich samt euch5213 getröstet würde4837 durch1722 euren5216 und5037 meinen1700 Glauben4102, den wir2532 untereinander240 haben.

13 Ich will2309 euch5209 aber1161 nicht3756 verhalten50, liebe Brüder80, daß3754 ich mir oft4178 habe2192 vorgesetzt4388, zu4314 euch5209 zu1722 kommen2064 (bin2967 aber2532 verhindert bisher), daß2443 ich auch2532 unter1722 euch5213 Frucht2590 schaffete gleichwie2532 unter andern3062 Heiden1484.

14 Ich bin1510 ein Schuldner3781 beide, der2532 Griechen1672 und5037 der Ungriechen915, beide, der Weisen4680 und2532 der Unweisen453.

15 Darum, soviel an mir1691 ist bin ich geneigt4289, auch2532 euch5213 zu2596 Rom4516 das3779 Evangelium zu1722 predigen2097.

16 Denn1063 ich schäme1870 mich1870 des2532 Evangeliums2098 von Christo5547 nicht3756; denn1063 es ist2076 eine Kraft1411 Gottes2316, die da1519 selig4991 machet alle3956, die daran glauben4100, die Juden2453 vornehmlich und4412 auch5037 die Griechen1672,

17 sintemal darinnen offenbaret wird601 die Gerechtigkeit1343, die vor GOtt2316 gilt, welche kommt aus1537 Glauben4102 in1519 Glauben4102; wie2531 denn1063 geschrieben stehet: Der1537 Gerechte1342 wird601 seines846 Glaubens4102 leben2198.

18 Denn1063 Gottes2316 Zorn3709 vom575 Himmel3772 wird offenbart601 über1909 alles3956 gottlose Wesen763 und2532 Ungerechtigkeit93 der Menschen444, die die Wahrheit225 in1722 Ungerechtigkeit93 aufhalten2722.

19 Denn1360 daß man weiß1110, daß GOtt2316 sei, ist2076 ihnen846 offenbar5318; denn1063 GOtt2316 hat1722 es ihnen846 offenbart5319

20 damit, daß Gottes unsichtbares Wesen517, das ist, seine846 ewige126 Kraft1411 und1063 GOttheit2305, wird ersehen3539, so2532 man des5037 wahrnimmt2529 an575 den846 Werken4161, nämlich an1519 der Schöpfung2937 der Welt2889, also daß sie846 keine Entschuldigung379 haben1511,

21 dieweil sie846 wußten, daß1360 ein GOtt2316 ist1392, und2532 haben ihn nicht3756 gepreiset als5613 einen GOtt2316 noch2228 gedanket, sondern235 sind3154 in1722 ihrem Dichten1261 eitel worden, und ihr1097 unverständiges801 Herz2588 ist verfinstert4654.

22 Da sie sich5335 für1511 weise4680 hielten, sind sie zu Narren worden

23 und2532 haben verwandelt236 die Herrlichkeit1391 des unvergänglichen862 Gottes2316 in1722 ein Bild1504 gleich3667 dem vergänglichen5349 Menschen444 und2532 der Vögel4071 und2532 der vierfüßigen5074 und2532 der kriechenden Tiere2062.

24 Darum1352 hat3860 sie846 auch2532 GOtt2316 dahingegeben in1519 ihrer846 Herzen2588 Gelüste1939, in1722 Unreinigkeit167, zu1722 schänden818 ihre846 eigenen Leiber4983 an sich selbst1438.

25 Die3000 Gottes2316 Wahrheit225 haben verwandelt3337 in1722 die3739 Lüge5579 und2532 haben geehret und2532 gedienet dem Geschöpfe2937 mehr denn3844 dem Schöpfer2936, der3748 da gelobet2128 ist2076 in1519 Ewigkeit165. Amen281.

26 Darum1223 hat3860 sie846 GOtt2316 auch5037 dahingegeben in1519 schändliche819 Lüste3806. Denn1063 ihre846 Weiber2338 haben3860 verwandelt3337 den natürlichen5446 Brauch5540 in1519 den unnatürlichen3844

27 Desselbigengleichen auch3668 die3739 Männer730 haben2716 verlassen den natürlichen5446 Brauch5540 des Weibes2338 und5037 sind1572 aneinander erhitzet in1722 ihren Lüsten3715, und2532 haben Mann mit1722 Mann Schande808 gewirket und2532 den Lohn489 ihres Irrtums4106 (wie es denn sein sollte1163) an1722 sich863 selbst1438 empfangen618.

28 Und2532 gleichwie2531 sie3860 nicht3756 geachtet haben1381, daß sie846 GOtt2316 erkenneten, hat2192 sie3860 GOtt2316 auch dahingegeben in1722 verkehrten96 Sinn3563, zu1519 tun4160, was nicht3361 taugt2520,

29 voll4137 alles3956 Ungerechten93, Hurerei4202, Schalkheit, Geizes4124, Bosheit4189, voll3324 Hasses, Mordes5408, Haders2054, List1388, giftig2550, Ohrenbläser5588,

30 Verleumder2637, Gottesverächter2319, Frevler5197, hoffärtig5244, ruhmredig213, Schädliche2182, den Eltern1118 ungehorsam545,

31 Unvernünftige801, Treulose802, störrig, unversöhnlich786, unbarmherzig415

32 die3748 Gottes2316 Gerechtigkeit1345 Wissen1921 (daß3754, die solches5108 tun4238, des846 Todes2288 würdig514 sind1526), tun4160 sie es nicht3756 allein3440, sondern haben auch2532 Gefallen4909 an denen, die es tun4238.

1 Paulus3972, ein Knecht1401 JEsu2424 Christi2316, berufen2822 zum Apostel652, ausgesondert873, zu1519 predigen das Evangelium2098 Gottes5547,

2 Which was promised from early days by his prophets in the holy scriptures,

2 welches er zuvor verheißen hat4279 durch1223 seine Propheten4396 in1722 der3739 Heiligen40 Schrift1124,

3 Concerning his son who was born in the flesh of the seed of the house of David,

3 von1537 seinem Sohn, der2596 geboren ist1096 von dem2257 Samen4690 Davids1138 nach4012 dem3588 Fleisch4561

4 And who came to be known as the Son of God with power and with the Holy Spirit, because he arose from the dead, and he is Jesus Christ our LORD,

4 und kräftiglich erweiset ein Sohn Gottes2316 nach dem Geist4151, der da1722 heiliget, seit der Zeit2596 er3724 auferstanden386 ist von1537 den Toten3498, nämlich JEsus Christus, unser HErr

5 And by him we have received grace and apostleship among all the Gentiles, so that they may hear the faith which is under his name,

5 (durch1223 welchen wir haben empfangen2983 Gnade5485 und2532 Apostelamt651, unter1519 allen3956 Heiden1484 den3739 Gehorsam5218 des846 Glaubens4102 aufzurichten unter1722 seinem Namen3686,

6 And in which you also are of them, and are called by Jesus Christ;

6 welcher3739 ihr2075 zum Teil auch2532 seid5210, die da1722 berufen sind2822 von JEsu2424 Christo5547):

7 To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called and sanctified: Grace and peace be unto you from God our Father, and from our LORD Jesus Christ.

7 Allen3956, die zu1722 Rom4516 sind5607, den Liebsten27 Gottes2316 und2532 berufenen2822 Heiligen40: Gnade5485 sei mit euch5213 und2532 Friede1515 von575 GOtt2316, unserm2257 Vater3962, und dem HErrn2962 JEsus2424 Christus5547!

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith has been heard of throughout the world.

8 Aufs erste danke2168 ich meinem3450 GOtt2316 durch1223 JEsum2424 Christum5547 euer5216 aller3956 halben5228, daß3754 man von3303 eurem5216 Glauben4102 in1722 aller3650 Welt2889 saget.

9 For God, whom I serve in spirit in the gospel of his Son, is my witness that unceasingly I make mention of you in my prayers;

9 Denn1063 GOtt2316 ist2076 mein3450 Zeuge3144, welchem3739 ich846 diene3000 in1722 meinem3450 Geist4151 am1722 Evangelium2098 von1909 seinem Sohn, daß5613 ich3450 ohne Unterlaß89 euer5216 gedenke4160

10 Beseeching that, if the way is open to me by the will of God, I may come to you.

10 und allezeit in1722 meinem Gebet flehe1189, ob sich‘s einmal zutragen wollte2137, daß4458 ich zu4314 euch5209 käme2064 durch Gottes2316 Willen2307.

11 For I long to see you, and to impart to you the gift of the Spirit, in order that you may be strengthened by it,

11 Denn1063 mich verlanget, euch5209 zu sehen1492, auf1519 daß2443 ich euch5213 mitteile3330 etwas5100 geistlicher4152 Gabe5486, euch5209 zu stärken4741,

12 And that we may be comforted together by our mutual faith.

12 das5124 ist2076, daß1223 ich samt euch5213 getröstet würde4837 durch1722 euren5216 und5037 meinen1700 Glauben4102, den wir2532 untereinander240 haben.

13 Now I want you to know, my brethren, that often I have wanted to come to you, but I have been prevented thus far, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles,

13 Ich will2309 euch5209 aber1161 nicht3756 verhalten50, liebe Brüder80, daß3754 ich mir oft4178 habe2192 vorgesetzt4388, zu4314 euch5209 zu1722 kommen2064 (bin2967 aber2532 verhindert bisher), daß2443 ich auch2532 unter1722 euch5213 Frucht2590 schaffete gleichwie2532 unter andern3062 Heiden1484.

14 Greeks and Barbarians, the wise and the unwise; for it is my duty to preach to everybody.

14 Ich bin1510 ein Schuldner3781 beide, der2532 Griechen1672 und5037 der Ungriechen915, beide, der Weisen4680 und2532 der Unweisen453.

15 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.

15 Darum, soviel an mir1691 ist bin ich geneigt4289, auch2532 euch5213 zu2596 Rom4516 das3779 Evangelium zu1722 predigen2097.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes; whether they are Jews first, or Arameans (Syrians). *

16 Denn1063 ich schäme1870 mich1870 des2532 Evangeliums2098 von Christo5547 nicht3756; denn1063 es ist2076 eine Kraft1411 Gottes2316, die da1519 selig4991 machet alle3956, die daran glauben4100, die Juden2453 vornehmlich und4412 auch5037 die Griechen1672,

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The righteous shall live by faith.

17 sintemal darinnen offenbaret wird601 die Gerechtigkeit1343, die vor GOtt2316 gilt, welche kommt aus1537 Glauben4102 in1519 Glauben4102; wie2531 denn1063 geschrieben stehet: Der1537 Gerechte1342 wird601 seines846 Glaubens4102 leben2198.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all the iniquity and wickedness of men who unjustly suppress the truth;

18 Denn1063 Gottes2316 Zorn3709 vom575 Himmel3772 wird offenbart601 über1909 alles3956 gottlose Wesen763 und2532 Ungerechtigkeit93 der Menschen444, die die Wahrheit225 in1722 Ungerechtigkeit93 aufhalten2722.

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifested to them for God has revealed it unto them.

19 Denn1360 daß man weiß1110, daß GOtt2316 sei, ist2076 ihnen846 offenbar5318; denn1063 GOtt2316 hat1722 es ihnen846 offenbart5319

20 For, from the very creation of the world, the invisible things of God have been clearly seen and understood by his creations, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.

20 damit, daß Gottes unsichtbares Wesen517, das ist, seine846 ewige126 Kraft1411 und1063 GOttheit2305, wird ersehen3539, so2532 man des5037 wahrnimmt2529 an575 den846 Werken4161, nämlich an1519 der Schöpfung2937 der Welt2889, also daß sie846 keine Entschuldigung379 haben1511,

21 For they knew God and did not glorify him and give thanks to him as God, but became vain in their imaginations, and their hearts were darkened so that they could not understand.

21 dieweil sie846 wußten, daß1360 ein GOtt2316 ist1392, und2532 haben ihn nicht3756 gepreiset als5613 einen GOtt2316 noch2228 gedanket, sondern235 sind3154 in1722 ihrem Dichten1261 eitel worden, und ihr1097 unverständiges801 Herz2588 ist verfinstert4654.

22 And while they thought within themselves that they were wise, they became fools,

22 Da sie sich5335 für1511 weise4680 hielten, sind sie zu Narren worden

23 And they have changed the glory of the uncorruptible God for an image made in the likeness of corruptible man, and in the likeness of birds, and of four-footed beasts, and of creeping things on the earth.

23 und2532 haben verwandelt236 die Herrlichkeit1391 des unvergänglichen862 Gottes2316 in1722 ein Bild1504 gleich3667 dem vergänglichen5349 Menschen444 und2532 der Vögel4071 und2532 der vierfüßigen5074 und2532 der kriechenden Tiere2062.

24 That is why God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:

24 Darum1352 hat3860 sie846 auch2532 GOtt2316 dahingegeben in1519 ihrer846 Herzen2588 Gelüste1939, in1722 Unreinigkeit167, zu1722 schänden818 ihre846 eigenen Leiber4983 an sich selbst1438.

25 And they have changed the truth of God for lies, and worshipped and served the created things more than their Creator to whom belong glory and blessings for ever. Amen.

25 Die3000 Gottes2316 Wahrheit225 haben verwandelt3337 in1722 die3739 Lüge5579 und2532 haben geehret und2532 gedienet dem Geschöpfe2937 mehr denn3844 dem Schöpfer2936, der3748 da gelobet2128 ist2076 in1519 Ewigkeit165. Amen281.

26 Therefore God has given them up to vile passions: for even their women have changed the natural use of their sex into that which is unnatural:

26 Darum1223 hat3860 sie846 GOtt2316 auch5037 dahingegeben in1519 schändliche819 Lüste3806. Denn1063 ihre846 Weiber2338 haben3860 verwandelt3337 den natürlichen5446 Brauch5540 in1519 den unnatürlichen3844

27 And likewise also their men have left the natural use of the women and have run wild with lust toward one another, male with male committing shameful acts, and receiving in themselves the due recompense of their error.

27 Desselbigengleichen auch3668 die3739 Männer730 haben2716 verlassen den natürlichen5446 Brauch5540 des Weibes2338 und5037 sind1572 aneinander erhitzet in1722 ihren Lüsten3715, und2532 haben Mann mit1722 Mann Schande808 gewirket und2532 den Lohn489 ihres Irrtums4106 (wie es denn sein sollte1163) an1722 sich863 selbst1438 empfangen618.

28 And as they did not consent in themselves to know God, God has given them over to a weak mind, to do the things which should not be done; as,

28 Und2532 gleichwie2531 sie3860 nicht3756 geachtet haben1381, daß sie846 GOtt2316 erkenneten, hat2192 sie3860 GOtt2316 auch dahingegeben in1722 verkehrten96 Sinn3563, zu1519 tun4160, was nicht3361 taugt2520,

29 Being filled with all manner of iniquity, fornication, bitterness, malice, extortion, envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil thoughts,

29 voll4137 alles3956 Ungerechten93, Hurerei4202, Schalkheit, Geizes4124, Bosheit4189, voll3324 Hasses, Mordes5408, Haders2054, List1388, giftig2550, Ohrenbläser5588,

30 Slanderers, backbiters, haters of God, revilers, proud boasters, inventors of evil things, the weak-minded, disobedient to their parents;

30 Verleumder2637, Gottesverächter2319, Frevler5197, hoffärtig5244, ruhmredig213, Schädliche2182, den Eltern1118 ungehorsam545,

31 These have no respect for a covenant. They know neither love nor peace, nor is there mercy in them;

31 Unvernünftige801, Treulose802, störrig, unversöhnlich786, unbarmherzig415

32 Knowing the judgment of God, that those who commit such things, he condemns to death, they not only do them, but also associate with those who practice them.

32 die3748 Gottes2316 Gerechtigkeit1345 Wissen1921 (daß3754, die solches5108 tun4238, des846 Todes2288 würdig514 sind1526), tun4160 sie es nicht3756 allein3440, sondern haben auch2532 Gefallen4909 an denen, die es tun4238.
