<span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>to all who are in Rome, loved by God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how I constantly mention you <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>always in my prayers, requesting, if by any means now at last I may succeed by the will of God to come to you. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you; <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>Now I do not desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you, and was hindered so far, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other non-Jewish people. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>I have an obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>So, for my part, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>For I am not ashamed of the Good News, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>For in it is revealed God's righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, "But the righteous will live by faith."<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people, who suppress the truth by unrighteousness, <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>because what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made. So they are without excuse. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>Because, although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but their thinking became nonsense, and their foolish heart was darkened. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>Claiming to be wise, they became fools, <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>and traded the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal humans, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and crawling creatures.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>Therefore God also abandoned them in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the degrading of their bodies among themselves, <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>For this reason, God abandoned them to their degrading passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for that which is contrary to nature. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>Likewise also the men, giving up natural relations with women, burned in their lust toward one another, men with men, committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God abandoned them to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not right; <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers, <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>foolish, promise-breakers, heartless, unforgiving, unmerciful; <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/romans/1-32.htm"><b>32</b></a></span>who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.<p></div></div><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><div align="center"><a href="//nheb.net/">New Heart English Bible</a><br />Edited by Wayne A.
