{\MT THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE ROMANS



\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Paul, a
servant of
Jesus
Christ,
called
{\ADD{to be}} an
apostle,
separated
unto the
gospel of
God,

\VS{2}(Which he had promised
afore
by
his
prophets
in the
holy
scriptures,)

\VS{3}Concerning
his
Son Jesus Christ our Lord,
which was
made
of the
seed of
David according
to the
flesh;

\VS{4}And
declared
{\ADD{to be}} the
Son of
God
with
power, according
to the
spirit of
holiness,
by the
resurrection from the
dead:

\VS{5}By
whom we have
received
grace
and
apostleship,
for
obedience to the
faith
among
all
nations,
for
his
name:

\VS{6}Among
whom
are
ye
also the
called of
Jesus
Christ:

\VS{7}To
all that
be
in
Rome,
beloved of
God,
called
{\ADD{to be}}
saints:
Grace to
you
and
peace
from
God
our
Father,
and the
Lord
Jesus
Christ.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}First, I
thank
my
God
through
Jesus
Christ
for
you
all,
that
your
faith is spoken
of
throughout the
whole
world.

\VS{9}For
God
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;

\VS{10}Making
request, if by any
means
now at
length I might have a prosperous
journey
by the
will of
God to
come
unto
you.

\VS{11}For I
long to
see
you,
that I may
impart unto
you
some
spiritual
gift, to the
end
ye may be
established;

\VS{12}That
is, that I may be comforted
together
with
you
by the
mutual
faith
both of
you
and
me.

\VS{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.

\VS{14}I
am
debtor
both to the
Greeks,
and to the
Barbarians;
both to the
wise,
and to the
unwise.

\VS{15}So, as much
as
in
me
is, I am
ready to preach the
gospel to
you that
are
at
Rome
also.

\VS{16}For I
am
not
ashamed of the
gospel of
Christ:
for it
is the
power of
God
unto
salvation to every
one
that
believeth; to the
Jew
first,
and
also to the
Greek.

\VS{17}For
therein
is the
righteousness of
God
revealed
from
faith
to
faith:
as it is
written, The
just shall
live
by
faith.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}For the
wrath of
God is
revealed
from
heaven
against
all
ungodliness
and
unrighteousness of
men,
who
hold the
truth
in
unrighteousness;

\VS{19}Because that which may be
known of
God
is
manifest
in
them;
for
God hath
shewed
{\ADD{it}} unto
them.

\VS{20}For the invisible
things of
him
from the
creation of the
world are clearly
seen, being
understood by the things that are
made,
{\ADD{even}}
his
eternal
power
and
Godhead; so
that
they
are without
excuse:

\VS{21}Because
that, when they
knew
God, they
glorified
{\ADD{him}}
not
as
God,
neither were
thankful;
but became
vain
in
their
imaginations,
and
their
foolish
heart was
darkened.

\VS{22}Professing
themselves to
be
wise, they became
fools,

\VS{23}And
changed the
glory of the
uncorruptible
God
into an
image made like
to
corruptible
man,
and to
birds,
and fourfooted
beasts,
and creeping
things.


\par }{\PP \VS{24}Wherefore
God
also
gave
them
up
to
uncleanness
through the
lusts of their
own
hearts, to
dishonour their
own
bodies
between
themselves:

\VS{25}Who
changed the
truth of
God
into a
lie,
and
worshipped
and
served the
creature more
than the
Creator,
who
is
blessed
for
ever.
Amen.

\VS{26}For
this
cause
God
gave
them
up
unto
vile
affections:
for
even
their
women did
change the
natural
use
into that which
is
against
nature:

\VS{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.

\VS{28}And even
as they
did
not
like to
retain
God
in
{\ADD{their}}
knowledge,
God
gave
them
over
to a
reprobate
mind, to
do those
things which
are
not
convenient;

\VS{29}Being filled
with
all
unrighteousness,
fornication,
wickedness,
covetousness,
maliciousness;
full of
envy,
murder,
debate,
deceit,
malignity;
whisperers,

\VS{30}Backbiters, haters of
God,
despiteful,
proud,
boasters,
inventors of evil
things,
disobedient to
parents,

\VS{31}Without
understanding,
covenantbreakers, without natural
affection,
implacable,
unmerciful:

\VS{32}Who
knowing the
judgment of
God,
that they
which
commit such
things
are
worthy of
death,
not
only
do the
same,
but have pleasure
in them
that do
them.




\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Therefore thou
art
inexcusable,
O
man, whosoever thou
art that
judgest:
for
wherein thou
judgest
another, thou
condemnest
thyself;
for thou that
judgest
doest the same
things.

\VS{2}But we are
sure
that the
judgment of
God
is according
to
truth
against them which
commit such
things.

\VS{3}And thinkest
thou
this,
O
man, that
judgest them which
do such
things,
and
doest the
same,
that
thou shalt
escape the
judgment of
God?

\VS{4}Or despisest
thou the
riches of
his
goodness
and
forbearance
and
longsuffering; not
knowing
that the
goodness of
God
leadeth
thee
to
repentance?

\VS{5}But
after
thy
hardness
and
impenitent
heart treasurest
up unto
thyself
wrath
against the
day of
wrath
and
revelation of the righteous
judgment of
God;

\VS{6}Who will
render to every
man according
to
his
deeds:

\VS{7}To
them who
by patient
continuance in
well
doing seek
for
glory
and
honour
and
immortality,
eternal
life:

\VS{8}But unto
them that are
contentious,
and do not
obey the
truth,
but
obey
unrighteousness,
indignation
and
wrath,

\VS{9}Tribulation
and
anguish,
upon
every
soul of
man that
doeth
evil, of the
Jew
first,
and
also of the
Gentile;

\VS{10}But
glory,
honour,
and
peace, to every
man that
worketh
good, to the
Jew
first,
and
also to the
Gentile:

\VS{11}For there
is
no respect of
persons
with
God.

\VS{12}For as many
as have
sinned without
law
shall
also
perish without
law:
and as many
as have
sinned
in the
law shall be
judged
by the
law;

\VS{13}(For
not the
hearers of the
law
{\ADD{are}}
just
before
God,
but the
doers of the
law shall be
justified.

\VS{14}For
when the
Gentiles, which
have
not the
law,
do by
nature the
things contained in the
law,
these,
having
not the
law,
are a
law unto
themselves:

\VS{15}Which
shew the
work of the
law
written
in
their
hearts,
their
conscience also bearing
witness,
and
{\ADD{their}}
thoughts the mean
while
accusing or
else
excusing one
another;)

\VS{16}In the
day
when
God shall
judge the
secrets of
men
by
Jesus
Christ according
to
my
gospel.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}Behold,
thou art
called a
Jew,
and
restest in the
law,
and makest thy
boast
of
God,

\VS{18}And
knowest
{\ADD{his}}
will,
and
approvest the things that are more
excellent, being
instructed out
of the
law;

\VS{19}And art confident
that thou
thyself
art a
guide of the
blind, a
light of
them which are
in
darkness,

\VS{20}An
instructor of the
foolish, a
teacher of
babes, which
hast the
form of
knowledge
and of the
truth
in the
law.

\VS{21}Thou
therefore which
teachest
another, teachest
thou
not
thyself? thou that
preachest a man should
not
steal, dost thou
steal?

\VS{22}Thou that
sayest a man should
not commit
adultery, dost thou commit
adultery? thou that
abhorrest
idols, dost thou commit
sacrilege?

\VS{23}Thou
that makest thy
boast
of the
law,
through
breaking the
law dishonourest
thou
God?

\VS{24}For the
name of
God is
blasphemed
among the
Gentiles
through
you,
as it is
written.

\VS{25}For
circumcision
verily
profiteth,
if thou
keep the
law:
but
if thou
be a
breaker of the
law,
thy
circumcision is
made
uncircumcision.

\VS{26}Therefore
if the
uncircumcision
keep the
righteousness of the
law, shall
not
his
uncircumcision be
counted
for
circumcision?

\VS{27}And shall
not
uncircumcision which is
by
nature, if it
fulfil the
law,
judge
thee,
who
by the
letter
and
circumcision dost
transgress the
law?

\VS{28}For
he
is
not a
Jew, which is
one
outwardly;
neither
{\ADD{is that}}
circumcision, which is
outward
in the
flesh:

\VS{29}But
he
{\ADD{is}} a
Jew, which is
one
inwardly;
and
circumcision
{\ADD{is that}} of the
heart,
in the
spirit,
{\ADD{and}}
not in the
letter;
whose
praise
{\ADD{is}}
not
of
men,
but
of
God.




\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}What
advantage
then hath the
Jew?
or
what
profit
{\ADD{is there}} of
circumcision?

\VS{2}Much
every
way:
chiefly, because
that unto them were
committed the
oracles of
God.

\VS{3}For
what
if
some did not
believe?
shall
their
unbelief
make the
faith of
God without
effect?

\VS{4}God
forbid:
yea,
let
God
be
true,
but
every
man a
liar;
as it is
written,
That thou mightest be
justified
in
thy
sayings,
and mightest
overcome
when
thou art
judged.

\VS{5}But
if
our
unrighteousness
commend the
righteousness of
God,
what shall we
say?
{\ADD{Is}}
God
unrighteous who
taketh
vengeance? (I
speak
as a
man)

\VS{6}God
forbid: for
then
how
shall
God
judge the
world?

\VS{7}For
if the
truth of
God hath more
abounded
through
my
lie
unto
his
glory;
why
yet am I
also
judged
as a
sinner?

\VS{8}And
not
{\ADD{rather}}, (as we be slanderously
reported,
and
as
some affirm
that
we
say,) Let us
do
evil,
that
good may
come?
whose
damnation
is
just.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}What
then? are we
better
{\ADD{than they}}?
No, in no
wise:
for we have before
proved
both
Jews
and
Gentiles, that they
are
all
under
sin;

\VS{10}As it is
written, There
is
none
righteous, no,
not
one:

\VS{11}There
is
none that
understandeth, there
is
none that seeketh
after
God.

\VS{12}They are
all gone out of the
way, they
are
together become
unprofitable; there
is
none that
doeth
good, no,
not
one.

\VS{13}Their
throat
{\ADD{is}} an
open
sepulchre;
with
their
tongues they have used
deceit; the
poison of
asps
{\ADD{is}}
under
their
lips:

\VS{14}Whose
mouth
{\ADD{is}}
full of
cursing
and
bitterness:

\VS{15}Their
feet
{\ADD{are}}
swift to
shed
blood:

\VS{16}Destruction
and
misery
{\ADD{are}}
in
their
ways:

\VS{17}And the
way of
peace have
they
not
known:

\VS{18}There
is
no
fear of
God
before
their
eyes.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}Now we
know
that what things
soever the
law
saith, it
saith to them who
are
under the
law:
that
every
mouth may be
stopped,
and
all the
world may
become
guilty before
God.

\VS{20}Therefore
by the
deeds of the
law there
shall
no
flesh be
justified
in
his
sight:
for
by the
law
{\ADD{is}} the
knowledge of
sin.


\par }{\PP \VS{21}But
now the
righteousness of
God
without the
law is
manifested, being
witnessed
by the
law
and the
prophets;

\VS{22}Even the
righteousness of
God
{\ADD{which is}}
by
faith of
Jesus
Christ
unto
all
and
upon
all them that
believe:
for there
is
no
difference:

\VS{23}For
all have
sinned,
and come
short of the
glory of
God;

\VS{24}Being
justified
freely
by
his
grace
through the
redemption that
is
in
Christ
Jesus:

\VS{25}Whom
God hath set
forth
{\ADD{to be}} a
propitiation
through
faith
in
his
blood,
to
declare
his
righteousness
for the
remission of
sins that are
past, through the forbearance of God;

\VS{26}To
declare,
{\ADD{I say}},
at
this
time
his
righteousness:
that
he might
be
just,
and the
justifier of him which
believeth in
Jesus.

\VS{27}Where
{\ADD{is}}
boasting
then? It is
excluded.
By
what
law? of
works?
Nay:
but
by the
law of
faith.

\VS{28}Therefore we conclude
that a
man is
justified by
faith
without the
deeds of the
law.

\VS{29}{\ADD{Is he}} the
God of the
Jews
only?
{\ADD{is he}}
not
also of the
Gentiles?
Yes, of the
Gentiles
also:

\VS{30}Seeing
{\ADD{it is}}
one
God,
which shall
justify the
circumcision
by
faith,
and
uncircumcision
through
faith.

\VS{31}Do
we
then make
void the
law
through
faith? God
forbid:
yea, we
establish the
law.




\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}What shall we
say
then that
Abraham
our
father, as pertaining
to the
flesh, hath
found?

\VS{2}For
if
Abraham were
justified
by
works, he
hath
{\ADD{whereof}} to
glory;
but
not
before
God.

\VS{3}For
what
saith the
scripture?
Abraham
believed
God,
and it was
counted unto
him
for
righteousness.

\VS{4}Now to him that
worketh
is the
reward
not
reckoned
of
grace,
but
of
debt.

\VS{5}But to him that
worketh
not,
but
believeth
on him that
justifieth the
ungodly,
his
faith is
counted
for
righteousness.

\VS{6}Even
as
David
also
describeth the
blessedness of the
man, unto
whom
God
imputeth
righteousness
without
works,

\VS{7}{\ADD{Saying}},
Blessed
{\ADD{are}} they
whose
iniquities are
forgiven,
and
whose
sins are
covered.

\VS{8}Blessed
{\ADD{is}} the
man to
whom the
Lord
will
not
impute
sin.

\VS{9}{\ADD{Cometh}}
this
blessedness
then
upon the
circumcision
{\ADD{only}},
or
upon the
uncircumcision
also?
for we
say
that
faith was
reckoned to
Abraham
for
righteousness.

\VS{10}How was
it
then
reckoned? when he
was
in
circumcision,
or
in
uncircumcision?
Not
in
circumcision,
but
in
uncircumcision.

\VS{11}And he
received the
sign of
circumcision, a
seal of the
righteousness of the
faith
which
{\ADD{he had yet}}
being
uncircumcised:
that
he might
be the
father of
all them that
believe, though they
be not
circumcised;
that
righteousness might be
imputed unto
them
also:

\VS{12}And the
father of
circumcision to them who
are
not
of the
circumcision
only,
but
who
also
walk in the
steps of that
faith
of
our
father
Abraham,
which
{\ADD{he had}}
being
{\ADD{yet}}
uncircumcised.

\VS{13}For the
promise, that
he should
be the
heir of the
world,
{\ADD{was}}
not to
Abraham,
or
to
his
seed,
through the
law,
but
through the
righteousness of
faith.

\VS{14}For
if they which
are
of the
law
{\ADD{be}}
heirs,
faith is made
void,
and the
promise made of none
effect:

\VS{15}Because the
law
worketh
wrath:
for
where
no
law
is,
{\ADD{there is}}
no
transgression.

\VS{16}Therefore
{\ADD{it is}}
of
faith,
that
{\ADD{it might be}}
by
grace; to the
end the
promise might
be
sure to
all the
seed;
not to
that
only which is
of the
law,
but to
that
also which is
of the
faith of
Abraham;
who
is the
father of
us
all,

\VS{17}(As it is
written, I have
made
thee a
father of
many
nations,)
before him
whom he
believed,
{\ADD{even}}
God, who
quickeneth the
dead,
and
calleth those things which
be
not
as though they
were.

\VS{18}Who
against
hope
believed
in
hope,
that
he might
become the
father of
many
nations; according
to that which was
spoken,
So
shall
thy
seed
be.

\VS{19}And
being
not
weak in
faith, he
considered
not his
own
body
now
dead, when he was
about an hundred years
old, neither
yet the
deadness
of
Sara’s
womb:

\VS{20}He
staggered
not
at the
promise of
God through
unbelief;
but was
strong in
faith,
giving
glory to
God;

\VS{21}And being fully
persuaded
that,
what he had
promised, he
was
able
also to
perform.

\VS{22}And
therefore it was
imputed to
him
for
righteousness.

\VS{23}Now it
was
not
written
for
his
sake
alone,
that it was
imputed to
him;

\VS{24}But
for
us
also, to
whom it
shall be
imputed, if
we
believe
on him that raised
up
Jesus
our
Lord
from the
dead;

\VS{25}Who was
delivered
for
our
offences,
and was raised
again
for
our
justification.




\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Therefore being
justified
by
faith, we
have
peace
with
God
through
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ:

\VS{2}By
whom
also we
have
access by
faith
into
this
grace
wherein we
stand,
and
rejoice
in
hope of the
glory of
God.

\VS{3}And
not
only
{\ADD{so}},
but we
glory
in
tribulations
also:
knowing
that
tribulation
worketh
patience;

\VS{4}And
patience,
experience;
and
experience,
hope:

\VS{5}And
hope
maketh
not
ashamed;
because the
love of
God is shed
abroad
in
our
hearts
by
the
Holy
Ghost which is
given unto
us.

\VS{6}For
when
we
were
yet without
strength, in
due
time
Christ
died
for the
ungodly.

\VS{7}For
scarcely
for a righteous
man
will
one
die:
yet
peradventure
for a good
man
some
would
even
dare to
die.

\VS{8}But
God
commendeth
his
love
toward
us, in
that,
while
we
were
yet
sinners,
Christ
died
for
us.

\VS{9}Much
more
then,
being
now
justified
by
his
blood, we shall be
saved
from
wrath
through
him.

\VS{10}For
if, when we
were
enemies, we were
reconciled to
God
by the
death of
his
Son,
much
more, being
reconciled, we shall be
saved
by
his
life.

\VS{11}And
not
only
{\ADD{so}},
but
we
also
joy
in
God
through
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
by
whom we
have
now
received the
atonement.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}Wherefore,
as
by
one
man
sin
entered
into the
world,
and
death
by
sin;
and
so
death
passed
upon
all
men,
for
that
all have
sinned:

\VS{13}(For
until the
law
sin
was
in the
world:
but
sin
is
not
imputed when there
is
no
law.

\VS{14}Nevertheless
death
reigned
from
Adam
to
Moses,
even
over them that
had
not
sinned
after the
similitude
of
Adam’s
transgression,
who
is the
figure of him that was to
come.

\VS{15}But
not
as the
offence,
so
also
{\ADD{is}} the free
gift.
For
if through the
offence of
one
many be
dead,
much
more the
grace of
God,
and the
gift
by
grace,
{\ADD{which is}} by
one
man,
Jesus
Christ, hath
abounded
unto
many.

\VS{16}And
not
as
{\ADD{it was}}
by
one that
sinned,
{\ADD{so is}} the
gift:
for the
judgment
{\ADD{was}}
by
one
to
condemnation,
but the free
gift
{\ADD{is}}
of
many
offences
unto
justification.

\VS{17}For
if
by one
man’s
offence
death
reigned
by
one;
much
more they which
receive
abundance of
grace
and of the
gift of
righteousness shall
reign
in
life
by
one,
Jesus
Christ.)

\VS{18}Therefore
as
by the
offence of
one
{\ADD{judgment came}}
upon
all
men
to
condemnation;
even
so
by the
righteousness of
one
{\ADD{the free gift came}}
upon
all
men
unto
justification of
life.

\VS{19}For
as
by
one
man’s
disobedience
many were
made
sinners,
so
by the
obedience of
one
shall
many be
made
righteous.

\VS{20}Moreover the
law
entered,
that the
offence might
abound.
But
where
sin
abounded,
grace did much more
abound:

\VS{21}That
as
sin hath
reigned
unto
death,
even
so
might
grace
reign
through
righteousness
unto
eternal
life
by
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord.




\par }\Chap{6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}What shall we
say
then? Shall we
continue in
sin,
that
grace may
abound?

\VS{2}God
forbid.
How shall
we,
that are
dead to
sin,
live any
longer
therein?

\VS{3}Know ye
not,
that so many of us
as were
baptized
into
Jesus
Christ were
baptized
into
his
death?

\VS{4}Therefore we are buried
with
him
by
baptism
into
death:
that like
as
Christ was raised
up
from the
dead
by the
glory of the
Father, even
so
we
also should
walk
in
newness of
life.

\VS{5}For
if we have
been planted
together in the
likeness of
his
death, we shall
be
also
{\ADD{in the likeness}} of
{\ADD{his}}
resurrection:

\VS{6}Knowing
this,
that
our
old
man is crucified
with
{\ADD{him}},
that the
body of
sin might be
destroyed,
that
henceforth
we
should
not
serve
sin.

\VS{7}For he that is
dead is
freed
from
sin.

\VS{8}Now
if we be
dead
with
Christ, we
believe
that we
shall
also live
with
him:

\VS{9}Knowing
that
Christ being
raised
from the
dead
dieth no
more;
death
hath no
more
dominion over
him.

\VS{10}For in
that he
died, he
died unto
sin
once:
but in
that he
liveth, he
liveth unto
God.

\VS{11}Likewise
reckon
ye
also
yourselves to
be
dead
indeed unto
sin,
but
alive unto
God
through
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord.

\VS{12}Let
not
sin
therefore
reign
in
your
mortal
body, that ye
should
obey
it
in the
lusts
thereof.

\VS{13}Neither yield
ye
your
members
{\ADD{as}}
instruments of
unrighteousness unto
sin:
but
yield
yourselves unto
God,
as those that are
alive
from the
dead,
and
your
members
{\ADD{as}}
instruments of
righteousness unto
God.

\VS{14}For
sin
shall
not have dominion
over
you:
for ye
are
not
under the
law,
but
under
grace.

\VS{15}What
then? shall we
sin,
because we
are
not
under the
law,
but
under
grace? God
forbid.

\VS{16}Know
ye
not,
that to
whom ye
yield
yourselves
servants
to
obey, his
servants ye
are to
whom ye
obey;
whether of
sin
unto
death,
or of
obedience
unto
righteousness?

\VS{17}But
God be
thanked,
that ye
were the
servants of
sin,
but ye have
obeyed
from the
heart that
form of
doctrine
which was delivered
you.

\VS{18}Being
then made
free
from
sin, ye became the
servants of
righteousness.

\VS{19}I
speak after the manner of
men because
of the
infirmity of
your
flesh:
for
as ye have
yielded
your
members
servants to
uncleanness
and to
iniquity
unto
iniquity; even
so
now
yield
your
members
servants to
righteousness
unto
holiness.

\VS{20}For
when ye
were the
servants of
sin, ye
were
free from
righteousness.

\VS{21}What
fruit had
ye
then
in those things
whereof ye
are
now
ashamed?
for the
end of those
things
{\ADD{is}}
death.

\VS{22}But
now being made
free
from
sin,
and become
servants to
God, ye
have
your
fruit
unto
holiness,
and the
end
everlasting
life.

\VS{23}For the
wages of
sin
{\ADD{is}}
death;
but the
gift of
God
{\ADD{is}}
eternal
life
through
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord.




\par }\Chap{7}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Know ye
not,
brethren, (for I
speak to them that
know the
law,) how
that the
law hath dominion
over a
man
as
long
as he
liveth?

\VS{2}For the
woman which hath an
husband is
bound by the
law
to
{\ADD{her}}
husband so long as he
liveth;
but
if the
husband be
dead, she is
loosed
from the
law
of
{\ADD{her}}
husband.

\VS{3}So
then
if,
while
{\ADD{her}}
husband
liveth, she be
married
to
another
man, she shall be
called an
adulteress:
but
if her
husband be
dead, she
is
free
from that
law; so
that
she
is
no
adulteress, though she be
married
to
another
man.

\VS{4}Wherefore,
my
brethren,
ye
also are become
dead to the
law
by the
body of
Christ;
that
ye should be
married to
another,
{\ADD{even}} to him who is
raised
from the
dead,
that we should bring forth
fruit unto
God.

\VS{5}For
when we
were
in the
flesh, the
motions of
sins, which
were
by the
law, did
work
in
our
members
to bring forth
fruit unto
death.

\VS{6}But
now we are
delivered
from the
law, that being
dead
wherein we were
held;
that
we should
serve
in
newness of
spirit,
and
not
{\ADD{in}} the
oldness of the
letter.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}What shall we
say
then?
{\ADD{Is}} the
law
sin? God
forbid.
Nay, I
had
not
known
sin,
but
by the
law:
for I
had
not
known
lust,
except the
law had
said, Thou
shalt
not
covet.

\VS{8}But
sin,
taking
occasion
by the
commandment,
wrought
in
me all manner
of
concupiscence.
For
without the
law
sin
{\ADD{was}}
dead.

\VS{9}For
I was
alive
without the
law
once:
but
when the
commandment
came,
sin
revived,
and
I
died.

\VS{10}And the
commandment,
which
{\ADD{was ordained}}
to
life,
I
found
{\ADD{to be}}
unto
death.

\VS{11}For
sin,
taking
occasion
by the
commandment,
deceived
me,
and
by
it
slew
{\ADD{me}}.

\VS{12}Wherefore the
law
{\ADD{is}}
holy,
and the
commandment
holy,
and
just,
and
good.

\VS{13}Was
then that which is
good
made
death unto
me? God
forbid.
But
sin,
that it might
appear
sin,
working
death in
me
by that which is
good;
that
sin
by the
commandment might
become
exceeding
sinful.

\VS{14}For we
know
that the
law
is
spiritual:
but
I
am
carnal,
sold
under
sin.

\VS{15}For that
which I
do I
allow
not:
for
what I
would,
that do
I
not;
but
what I
hate,
that do
I.

\VS{16}If
then I
do that
which I
would
not, I consent
unto the
law
that
{\ADD{it is}}
good.

\VS{17}Now
then it is no
more
I
that
do
it,
but
sin that
dwelleth
in
me.

\VS{18}For I
know
that
in
me (that
is,
in
my
flesh,)
dwelleth
no good
thing:
for to
will is
present with
me;
but
{\ADD{how}} to
perform that which is
good I
find
not.

\VS{19}For the
good
that I
would I
do
not:
but the
evil
which I
would
not,
that I
do.

\VS{20}Now
if I
do
that
I
would
not, it is no
more
I
that
do
it,
but
sin that
dwelleth
in
me.

\VS{21}I
find
then a
law,
that,
when
I
would
do
good,
evil is
present with
me.

\VS{22}For I
delight in the
law of
God
after
the
inward
man:

\VS{23}But I
see
another
law
in
my
members, warring
against the
law
of
my
mind,
and
bringing
me into
captivity to the
law of
sin which
is
in
my
members.

\VS{24}O
wretched
man that I
am!
who shall
deliver
me
from the
body
of
this
death?

\VS{25}I
thank
God
through
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord.
So
then with the
mind
I
myself
serve the
law of
God;
but with the
flesh the
law of
sin.




\par }\Chap{8}{\PP \VerseOne{1}{\ADD{There is}}
therefore
now
no
condemnation to them which
are
in
Christ
Jesus, who
walk
not
after the
flesh,
but
after the
Spirit.

\VS{2}For the
law of the
Spirit of
life
in
Christ
Jesus hath
made
me
free
from the
law of
sin
and
death.

\VS{3}For
what the
law could not
do,
in
that it was
weak
through the
flesh,
God
sending his
own
Son
in the
likeness of
sinful
flesh,
and
for
sin,
condemned
sin
in the
flesh:

\VS{4}That the
righteousness of the
law might be
fulfilled
in
us, who
walk
not
after the
flesh,
but
after the
Spirit.

\VS{5}For they that
are
after the
flesh do
mind the
things of the
flesh;
but they that
are
after the
Spirit the
things of the
Spirit.

\VS{6}For to
be
carnally
minded
{\ADD{is}}
death;
but to
be
spiritually
minded
{\ADD{is}}
life
and
peace.

\VS{7}Because the
carnal
mind
{\ADD{is}}
enmity
against
God:
for it
is
not
subject to the
law of
God,
neither
indeed can
be.

\VS{8}So
then they that
are
in the
flesh
cannot
please
God.

\VS{9}But
ye
are
not
in the
flesh,
but
in the
Spirit, if so be
that the
Spirit of
God
dwell
in
you.
Now
if any
man
have
not the
Spirit of
Christ,
he
is
none of
his.

\VS{10}And
if
Christ
{\ADD{be}}
in
you, the
body
{\ADD{is}}
dead because
of
sin;
but the
Spirit
{\ADD{is}}
life because
of
righteousness.

\VS{11}But
if the
Spirit of him that raised
up
Jesus
from the
dead
dwell
in
you, he that raised
up
Christ
from the
dead
shall
also
quicken
your
mortal
bodies
by
his
Spirit that
dwelleth
in
you.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}Therefore,
brethren, we
are
debtors,
not to the
flesh, to
live
after the
flesh.

\VS{13}For
if ye
live
after the
flesh, ye
shall
die:
but
if
ye through the
Spirit do
mortify the
deeds of the
body, ye shall
live.

\VS{14}For as many
as are
led by the
Spirit of
God,
they
are the
sons of
God.

\VS{15}For ye
have
not
received the
spirit of
bondage
again
to
fear;
but ye have
received the
Spirit of
adoption,
whereby we
cry,
Abba,
Father.

\VS{16}The
Spirit
itself beareth witness
with
our
spirit,
that we
are the
children of
God:

\VS{17}And
if
children,
then
heirs;
heirs of
God,
and
joint-heirs with
Christ; if so be
that we suffer
with
{\ADD{him}},
that we may
be
also glorified
together.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}For I
reckon
that the
sufferings
of this
present
time
{\ADD{are}}
not
worthy
{\ADD{to be compared}}
with the
glory which
shall be
revealed
in
us.

\VS{19}For the earnest
expectation of the
creature waiteth
for the
manifestation of the
sons of
God.

\VS{20}For the
creature was made
subject to
vanity,
not
willingly,
but by reason
of him who hath
subjected
{\ADD{the same}}
in
hope,

\VS{21}Because the
creature
itself
also shall be
delivered
from the
bondage of
corruption
into the
glorious
liberty of the
children of
God.

\VS{22}For we
know
that the
whole
creation
groaneth
and travaileth in pain
together
until
now.

\VS{23}And
not
only
{\ADD{they}},
but
ourselves
also, which
have the
firstfruits of the
Spirit,
even
we
ourselves
groan
within
ourselves, waiting
for the
adoption,
{\ADD{to wit}}, the
redemption
of
our
body.

\VS{24}For we are
saved by
hope:
but
hope that is
seen
is
not
hope:
for
what a
man
seeth,
why doth
he
yet hope
for?

\VS{25}But
if we hope
for
that we
see
not,
{\ADD{then}} do
we
with
patience wait
for
{\ADD{it}}.

\VS{26}Likewise the
Spirit
also
helpeth
our
infirmities:
for we
know
not
what we should pray
for
as we
ought:
but the
Spirit
itself maketh
intercession
for
us with
groanings which cannot be
uttered.

\VS{27}And he that
searcheth the
hearts
knoweth
what
{\ADD{is}} the
mind of the
Spirit,
because he maketh
intercession
for the
saints according
to
{\ADD{the will of}}
God.

\VS{28}And we
know
that all
things work
together
for
good to them that
love
God, to them who
are the
called according
to
{\ADD{his}}
purpose.

\VS{29}For
whom he did
foreknow,
he
also did
predestinate
{\ADD{to be}} conformed
to the
image
of
his
Son,
that
he might
be the
firstborn
among
many
brethren.

\VS{30}Moreover
whom he did
predestinate,
them he
also
called:
and
whom he
called,
them
he
also
justified:
and
whom he
justified,
them
he
also
glorified.

\VS{31}What shall
we
then
say
to these
things?
If
God
{\ADD{be}}
for
us,
who
{\ADD{can be}}
against
us?

\VS{32}He
that
spared
not his
own
Son,
but
delivered
him
up
for
us
all,
how shall
he
not
with
him
also freely
give
us all
things?

\VS{33}Who shall lay any thing to the
charge
of
God’s
elect?
{\ADD{It is}}
God that
justifieth.

\VS{34}Who
{\ADD{is}} he that
condemneth?
{\ADD{It is}}
Christ that
died,
yea
rather, that is
risen
again,
who
is
even
at the right
hand of
God,
who
also maketh
intercession
for
us.

\VS{35}Who shall
separate
us
from the
love of
Christ?
{\ADD{shall}}
tribulation,
or
distress,
or
persecution,
or
famine,
or
nakedness,
or
peril,
or
sword?

\VS{36}As it is
written,
For
thy
sake we are
killed
all the day
long; we are
accounted
as
sheep for the
slaughter.

\VS{37}Nay,
in
all these
things we are more than
conquerors
through him that
loved
us.

\VS{38}For I am
persuaded,
that
neither
death,
nor
life,
nor
angels,
nor
principalities,
nor
powers,
nor things
present,
nor things to
come,

\VS{39}Nor
height,
nor
depth,
nor
any
other
creature, shall be
able to
separate
us
from the
love of
God, which
is
in
Christ
Jesus
our
Lord.

is, They which are the

for the

not

Esau have I

{\ADD{Is there}}
unrighteousness
with
God? God

\VS{15}For he
saith to
Moses, I will have mercy
on
whom I will have

\VS{16}So
then
{\ADD{it is}}
not of him that

God that sheweth
mercy.

saith unto
Pharaoh, Even

raised
thee
up,
that I might
shew
my

and
that

O

who
art

not the

dishonour?

\VS{22}{\ADD{What}}
if

willing to
shew
{\ADD{his}}
wrath,
and to
make
his
power
known,
endured
with
much
longsuffering the
vessels of
wrath
fitted

short
in

work

before,

faith.

\VS{31}But
Israel, which followed
after the
law of
righteousness,
hath
not
attained
to the
law of
righteousness.

\VS{32}Wherefore?
Because
{\ADD{they sought it}}
not
by
faith,
but as it
were
by the
works of the
law.
For they
stumbled at
that
stumblingstone;

\VS{33}As it is
written,
Behold, I
lay
in
Sion a
stumblingstone
and
rock of
offence:
and
whosoever
believeth
on
him
shall
not be
ashamed.




\par }\Chap{10}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Brethren,
my
heart’s
desire
and
prayer
to
God
for
Israel
is,
that they might be
saved.

\VS{2}For I
bear
them
record
that they
have a
zeal of
God,
but
not according
to
knowledge.

\VS{3}For they being ignorant
of
God’s
righteousness,
and going
about to
establish their
own
righteousness,
have
not submitted
themselves unto the
righteousness of
God.

\VS{4}For
Christ
{\ADD{is}} the
end of the
law
for
righteousness to every
one that
believeth.

\VS{5}For
Moses
describeth the
righteousness which
is
of the
law,
That the
man which
doeth those
things shall
live
by
them.

\VS{6}But the
righteousness which is
of
faith
speaketh on this
wise,
Say
not
in
thine
heart,
Who shall
ascend
into
heaven? (that
is, to
bring
Christ
down
{\ADD{from above}}:)

\VS{7}Or,
Who shall
descend
into the
deep? (that
is, to bring
up
Christ
again
from the
dead.)

\VS{8}But
what saith
it? The
word
is
nigh
thee,
{\ADD{even}}
in
thy
mouth,
and
in
thy
heart:
that
is, the
word of
faith,
which we
preach;

\VS{9}That
if thou shalt
confess
with
thy
mouth the
Lord
Jesus,
and shalt
believe
in
thine
heart
that
God hath
raised
him
from the
dead, thou shalt be
saved.

\VS{10}For with the
heart man
believeth
unto
righteousness;
and with the
mouth confession is
made
unto
salvation.

\VS{11}For the
scripture
saith,
Whosoever
believeth
on
him
shall
not be
ashamed.

\VS{12}For there
is
no
difference
between the
Jew
and the
Greek:
for
the
same
Lord over
all is
rich
unto
all that call
upon
him.

\VS{13}For
whosoever shall call
upon the
name of the
Lord shall be
saved.

\VS{14}How
then shall they call on
him
in
whom they
have
not
believed?
and
how shall they
believe in him of
whom they
have
not
heard?
and
how shall they
hear
without a
preacher?

\VS{15}And
how shall they
preach,
except they be
sent?
as it is
written,
How
beautiful are the
feet of them that preach the
gospel of
peace, and bring glad
tidings of good
things!

\VS{16}But they
have
not
all
obeyed the
gospel.
For
Esaias
saith,
Lord,
who hath
believed
our
report?

\VS{17}So
then
faith
{\ADD{cometh}}
by
hearing,
and
hearing
by the
word of
God.

\VS{18}But I
say, Have
they
not
heard? Yes
verily,
their
sound
went
into
all the
earth,
and
their
words
unto the
ends of the
world.

\VS{19}But I
say,
Did
not
Israel
know?
First
Moses
saith,
I will
provoke
you to
jealousy
by
{\ADD{them that are}}
no
people,
{\ADD{and}}
by a
foolish
nation I will
anger
you.

\VS{20}But
Esaias is very
bold,
and
saith, I was
found of
them that
sought
me
not; I was
made
manifest unto
them that
asked
not
after
me.

\VS{21}But
to
Israel he
saith,
All day
long I have stretched
forth
my
hands
unto a
disobedient
and
gainsaying
people.




\par }\Chap{11}{\PP \VerseOne{1}I
say
then,
Hath
God cast
away
his
people? God
forbid.
For
I
also
am an
Israelite,
of the
seed of
Abraham,
{\ADD{of}} the
tribe of
Benjamin.

\VS{2}God
hath
not cast
away
his
people
which he
foreknew. Wot
ye
not
what the
scripture
saith
of
Elias?
how he maketh
intercession to
God
against
Israel,
saying,

\VS{3}Lord, they have
killed
thy
prophets,
and digged
down
thine
altars; and
I am
left
alone,
and they
seek
my
life.

\VS{4}But
what
saith the answer of
God unto
him? I have
reserved to
myself seven
thousand
men,
who
have
not
bowed the
knee
to
{\ADD{the image of}}
Baal.

\VS{5}Even
so
then
at this
present
time
also there
is a
remnant according
to the
election of
grace.

\VS{6}And
if by
grace,
then
{\ADD{is it}} no
more
of
works:
otherwise
grace
is no
more
grace.
But
if
{\ADD{it be}}
of
works,
then is
it no
more
grace:
otherwise
work
is no
more
work.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}What
then?
Israel
hath
not
obtained
that
which he seeketh
for;
but the
election hath obtained
it,
and the
rest were
blinded

\VS{8}(According
as it is
written,
God hath
given
them the
spirit of
slumber,
eyes that they
should
not
see,
and
ears that they
should
not
hear;)
unto
this
day.

\VS{9}And
David
saith,
Let
their
table be
made a
snare,
and a
trap,
and a
stumblingblock,
and a
recompence unto
them:

\VS{10}Let
their
eyes be
darkened, that they
may
not
see,
and bow
down
their
back
alway.

\VS{11}I
say
then, Have they
stumbled
that they should
fall? God
forbid:
but
{\ADD{rather}}
through
their
fall
salvation
{\ADD{is come}} unto the
Gentiles,
for to
provoke
them to
jealousy.

\VS{12}Now
if the
fall of
them
{\ADD{be}} the
riches of the
world,
and the
diminishing of
them the
riches of the
Gentiles; how
much
more
their
fulness?


\par }{\PP \VS{13}For I
speak to
you
Gentiles, inasmuch
as
I
am the
apostle of the
Gentiles, I
magnify
mine
office:

\VS{14}If by any
means I may provoke to
emulation
{\ADD{them which are}}
my
flesh,
and might
save
some
of
them.

\VS{15}For
if the casting
away of
them
{\ADD{be}} the
reconciling of the
world,
what
{\ADD{shall}} the
receiving
{\ADD{of them be}},
but
life
from the
dead?

\VS{16}For
if the
firstfruit
{\ADD{be}}
holy, the
lump
{\ADD{is}}
also
{\ADD{holy}}:
and
if the
root
{\ADD{be}}
holy,
so
{\ADD{are}} the
branches.

\VS{17}And
if
some of the
branches be broken
off,
and
thou,
being a wild olive
tree, wert
graffed
in among
them,
and with them
partakest of the
root
and
fatness of the olive
tree;

\VS{18}Boast
not against the
branches.
But
if thou
boast,
thou
bearest
not the
root,
but the
root
thee.

\VS{19}Thou wilt
say
then, The
branches were broken
off,
that
I might be graffed
in.

\VS{20}Well; because of
unbelief they were broken
off,
and
thou
standest by
faith.
Be
not
highminded,
but
fear:

\VS{21}For
if
God
spared
not
the
natural
branches,
{\ADD{take heed}}
lest
he
also
spare
not
thee.

\VS{22}Behold
therefore the
goodness
and
severity of
God:
on them which
fell,
severity;
but
toward
thee,
goodness,
if thou
continue
in
{\ADD{his}}
goodness:
otherwise
thou
also shalt be cut
off.

\VS{23}And
they
also,
if they
abide
not
still in
unbelief, shall be graffed
in:
for
God
is
able to
graff
them
in
again.

\VS{24}For
if
thou wert cut
out
of the olive tree which is
wild
by
nature,
and wert
graffed contrary
to
nature
into a good olive
tree: how
much
more
shall
these, which
be the
natural
{\ADD{branches}}, be graffed
into their
own olive
tree?


\par }{\PP \VS{25}For I
would
not,
brethren,
that
ye should be ignorant
of
this
mystery,
lest ye should
be
wise
in your own
conceits;
that
blindness
in
part is
happened to
Israel,
until the
fulness of the
Gentiles be come
in.

\VS{26}And
so
all
Israel shall be
saved:
as it is
written, There shall
come out
of
Sion the
Deliverer,
and shall turn
away
ungodliness
from
Jacob:

\VS{27}For
this
{\ADD{is}}
my
covenant unto
them,
when I shall take
away
their
sins.

\VS{28}As
concerning the
gospel,
{\ADD{they are}}
enemies
for
your
sakes:
but as
touching the
election,
{\ADD{they are}}
beloved
for the
fathers’
sakes.

\VS{29}For the
gifts
and
calling of
God
{\ADD{are}} without
repentance.

\VS{30}For
as
ye in times
past have not
believed
God,
yet
have
now obtained
mercy
through
their
unbelief:

\VS{31}Even
so
have
these
also
now not
believed,
that through
your
mercy
they
also may obtain
mercy.

\VS{32}For
God hath
concluded them
all
in
unbelief,
that he might have mercy
upon
all.


\par }{\PP \VS{33}O the
depth of the
riches
both of the
wisdom
and
knowledge of
God!
how
unsearchable
{\ADD{are}}
his
judgments,
and
his
ways past finding
out!

\VS{34}For
who hath
known the
mind of the
Lord?
or
who hath
been
his
counsellor?

\VS{35}Or
who hath first
given to
him,
and it shall be
recompensed unto
him
again?

\VS{36}For
of
him,
and
through
him,
and
to
him,

whom
{\ADD{be}}
glory
for
ever.
Amen.

of

\VS{8}Owe no
man any
thing,
but to
love one
another:

worketh

therefore follow
after the

\par }{\PP \VS{7}Wherefore receive
ye one
another,
as
Christ
also
received
us
to the
glory of
God.

\VS{8}Now I say
that
Jesus
Christ
was a
minister of the
circumcision
for the
truth of
God,
to
confirm the
promises
{\ADD{made}} unto the
fathers:

\VS{9}And
that the
Gentiles might
glorify
God
for
{\ADD{his}}
mercy;
as it is
written,
For this
cause I will
confess to
thee
among the
Gentiles,
and
sing
unto
thy
name.

\VS{10}And
again he
saith,
Rejoice, ye
Gentiles,
with
his
people.

\VS{11}And
again,
Praise the
Lord,
all ye
Gentiles;
and
laud
him,
all ye
people.

\VS{12}And
again,
Esaias
saith, There shall
be a
root of
Jesse,
and he that shall
rise to reign
over the
Gentiles;
in
him
shall the
Gentiles
trust.

\VS{13}Now the
God of
hope
fill
you
with
all
joy
and
peace
in
believing,
that
ye may
abound
in
hope,
through the
power of
the
Holy
Ghost.

\VS{14}And
I
myself
also am
persuaded
of
you,
my
brethren,
that
ye
also
are
full of
goodness,
filled
with
all
knowledge,
able
also to
admonish one
another.

\VS{15}Nevertheless,
brethren, I have
written the more
boldly unto
you
in some
sort,
as
putting
you in
mind, because
of the
grace that is
given to
me
of
God,

\VS{16}That
I should
be the
minister of
Jesus
Christ
to the
Gentiles,
ministering the
gospel of
God,
that the offering
up of the
Gentiles might
be
acceptable, being
sanctified
by
the
Holy
Ghost.

\VS{17}I
have
therefore whereof I may
glory
through
Jesus
Christ
in those things which
pertain
to
God.

\VS{18}For I
will
not
dare to
speak of any of those
things
which
Christ
hath
not
wrought
by
me, to
make the
Gentiles
obedient, by
word
and
deed,

\VS{19}Through
mighty
signs
and
wonders,
by the
power of the
Spirit of
God; so
that
from
Jerusalem,
and round
about
unto
Illyricum, I have fully
preached the
gospel of
Christ.

\VS{20}Yea,
so have I
strived to preach the
gospel,
not
where
Christ was
named,
lest I should
build
upon another
man’s
foundation:

\VS{21}But
as it is
written, To
whom
he
was
not
spoken
of, they shall
see:
and they that
have
not
heard shall
understand.

\VS{22}For which
cause
also I have
been
much
hindered from
coming
to
you.

\VS{23}But
now
having no
more
place
in
these
parts,
and
having a great
desire
these
many
years to
come
unto
you;

\VS{24}Whensoever I take my
journey
into
Spain, I will
come
to
you:
for I
trust to
see
you in my
journey,
and to be brought on my
way
thitherward
by
you,
if
first I
be
somewhat filled
with
your
{\ADD{company}}.

\VS{25}But
now I
go
unto
Jerusalem to
minister unto the
saints.

\VS{26}For it hath pleased
them of
Macedonia
and
Achaia to
make
a
certain
contribution
for the
poor
saints which
are
at
Jerusalem.

\VS{27}It hath pleased
them
verily;
and
their
debtors they
are.
For
if the
Gentiles have been made partakers
of
their spiritual
things, their duty
is
also to
minister unto
them
in carnal
things.

\VS{28}When
therefore I have
performed
this,
and have
sealed to
them
this
fruit, I will
come
by
you
into
Spain.

\VS{29}And I am
sure
that, when I
come
unto
you, I shall
come
in the
fulness of the
blessing of the
gospel of
Christ.


\par }{\PP \VS{30}Now I
beseech
you,
brethren, for
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ’s
sake,
and
for the
love of the
Spirit, that ye strive
together with
me
in
{\ADD{your}}
prayers
to
God
for
me;

\VS{31}That I may be
delivered
from them that do not
believe
in
Judaea;
and
that
my
service
which
{\ADD{I have}}
for
Jerusalem may
be
accepted of the
saints;

\VS{32}That I may
come
unto
you
with
joy
by the
will of
God,
and may
with
you be
refreshed.

\VS{33}Now the
God of
peace
{\ADD{be}}
with
you
all.
Amen.

\VS{2}That ye
receive
her
in the
Lord, as
becometh

and
that ye
assist
her
in
whatsoever
business she hath
need of
you:

beseech
you,
brethren,
mark them which
cause
divisions
and
offences contrary
to the
doctrine
which
ye have
learned;
and
avoid
them.

\VS{18}For they that are
such
serve
not
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
but their
own
belly;
and
by good
words
and fair
speeches
deceive the
hearts of the
simple.

\VS{19}For
your
obedience is come
abroad
unto
all
{\ADD{men}}. I am
glad
therefore
on
your
behalf: but
yet I would
have
you
wise
unto that which is
good,
and
simple
concerning
evil.

\VS{20}And the
God of
peace shall
bruise
Satan
