Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,

PAULOS, a servant of Jeshu Meshiha, called, and an apostle, who hath been separated unto the gospel of Aloha,

2 which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,

which from of old he had promised by the hand of the prophets, in the holy writings,

3 concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,

concerning his Son, who was born, according to the flesh, of the seed of the house of David,

4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

and is known (to be) the Son of Aloha by power, and by the Holy Spirit, who raised him from among the dead, Jeshu Meshiha our Lord:

5 through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations for his name’s sake;

by whom we have received grace and apostleship among all nations, that they should become obedient unto the faith of his name:

6 among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;

and you also are of them, called in Jeshu Meshiha:

7 to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

To all who are in Ruma, beloved of Aloha, called and saints; peace and grace be with you from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

First, I praise my God through Jeshu Meshiha on behalf of you all, that your faith is heard (of) in all the world.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,

For a witness unto me is Aloha, whom I serve in the spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing at all time I remember you in my prayers.

10 requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.

And I pray that from now there may be opened unto me the way, by the will of Aloha, to come to you.

11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;

For I greatly desire to see you, and to impart to you the gift of the Spirit,

12 that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.

that thereby you may be established, and that together we may be comforted by your faith and mine.

13 Now I don’t 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 rest of the Gentiles.

BUT I will that you know, my brethren, that many times I have willed to come to you, and have been hindered until this;

14 I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.

that among you also I may have fruit as among the rest of the nations of the Javnoyee and Barbaroyee, the wise and the foolish,

15 So as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.

because to every man am I obligated to preach; and so am I urged to evangelize unto you also who are in Ruma.

16 For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of Aloha for the salvation of all who believe in him, whether of the Jihudoyee first, or of the Aramoyee:

17 For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”

for the righteousness of Aloha in it is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The righteous by faith shall live.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

For the wrath of Aloha is revealed from heaven against all the unrighteousness and depravity of the sons of men, who the truth in unrighteousness detain.

19 because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.

Because the knowledge of Aloha is revealed in them; for Aloha revealed it in them.

20 For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios g126)

For the occult things of Aloha from the foundations of the world, unto his creatures by intelligence are apparent, and his power and his Godhead eternal, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios g126)

21 Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.

For when they knew Aloha, they did not as Aloha glorify him and praise him, but became vain in their imaginations, and their heart was darkened, that they understood not.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

And while thinking in themselves that they were wise, they were fools.

23 and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.

And they changed the glory of Aloha the Incorruptible into the likeness of the image of corruptible man, and into the likeness of birds and of four-footed (beasts) and of reptiles of the earth.

24 Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;

Because of this Aloha delivered them up to the unclean lusts of their hearts, that they would debase their bodies among them.

25 who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

And they changed the truth of Aloha into a lie, and worshipped and served the creatures rather than their Creator, to whom be praises and blessings for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

26 For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.

WHEREFORE Aloha delivered them up to passions of vileness: for their females changed the use of their nature, and to what is not natural were used.

27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.

And also their males likewise left the natural use of their females, and were inflamed with concupiscence one with another, and male with male wrought shamefulness, and the just retribution for their perverseness in themselves received.

28 Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

And as they did not decide in themselves to know Aloha, so did Aloha cause them to be delivered up to a mind of vainness, and to do what is not fit;

29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,

being filled with all wickedness, and uncleanness, and rancour, and malice, and rapacity, and envy, and murder, and contention, and deceit, and evil imaginings, and murmurings,

30 backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

and slanders, and hating of Aloha: vilifiers, inflated ones, boasters, inventors of evil things, mindless, disobedient to parents,

31 without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;

(men) to whom a compact is nothing, and (who) neither love peace nor (have) mercy in them; who,

32 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.

knowing the judgment of Aloha, that they who these things do, unto death are condemned, (yet) not only do them, but also participate with those who do them.
