Romans 1

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

Paul the seruaut of Iesus Christ called to be an Apostle put a parte to preache the Gospell of God

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

which he promysed afore by his Prophetes in the holy scriptures

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

that make mension of his sonne the which was begotte of the seed of David as pertayninge to the flesshe:

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 declared to be the sonne of God with power of the holy goost that sanctifieth sence ye tyme that Iesus Christ oure Lorde rose agayne from deeth

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 receaved grace and apostleshyppe to bringe all maner hethe people vnto obedience of the fayth that is in his name:

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

of the which hethen are ye a part also which are Iesus christes by vocacio.

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 you of Rome beloved of God and saynctes by callinge. Grace be with you and peace from God oure father and from the Lorde Iesus Christ.

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

Fyrst verely I thanke my God thorow Iesus Christ for you all because youre fayth is publisshed through out all the worlde.

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 God is my witnes whom I serve with my sprete in the Gospell of his sonne that with out ceasinge I make mencion of you alwayes 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.

besechinge that at one tyme or another a prosperous iorney (by ye will of god) myght fortune me to come vnto 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 longe to see you that I myght bestowe amoge you some spirituall gyfte to strength you with all:

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 is that I myght have consolacion together with you through the commen fayth which bothe ye and I have.

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.

I wolde that ye shuld knowe brethre how that I have often tymes purposed to come vnto you (but have bene let hitherto) to have some frute amonge you as I have amonge other of ye Gentyls.

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

For I am detter both to the Grekes and to them which are no Grekes vnto the learned and also vnto the vnlearned.

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

Lykewyse as moche as in me is I am redy to preache the Gospell to you of Rome also.

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 Gospell of Christ because it is ye power of God vnto salvacio to all yt beleve namely to the Iewe and also to ye getyle.

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 by it ye rightewesnes which cometh of god is opened fro fayth to fayth. As it is written: The iust shall live by fayth.

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 God apereth from heven agaynst all vngodlynes and vnrightewesnes of me which withholde ye trueth in vnrightewesnes

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

seynge what maye be knowen of God that same is manifest amoge them. For God dyd shewe it vnto 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)

So that his invisible thinges: that is to saye his eternall power and godhed are vnderstonde and sene by the workes from the creacion of the worlde. So that they are 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.

in as moche as when they knewe god they glorified him not as God nether were thakfull but wexed full of vanities in their imaginacions and their folisshe hertes were blynded.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

When they couted them selves wyse they became foles

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 turned the glory of the immortall god vnto the similitude of the ymage of mortall man and of byrdes and foure foted beastes and of serpentes.

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

Wherfore god lykewyse gave the vp vnto their hertes lustes vnto vnclennes to defyle their awne boddyes bitwene them selves:

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)

which tourned his truthe vnto a lye and worshipped and served the creatures more then ye maker which is blessed for ever. Ame. (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.

For this cause god gave them vp vnto shamfull lustes. For even their wemen did chaunge the naturall vse vnto the vnnaturall.

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 lyke wyse also the men lefte the naturall vse of the woma and bret in their lustes one on another. And man with man wrought filthynes and receaved in them selves the rewarde of their erroure as it was accordinge.

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 it semed not good vnto them to be aknowen of God even so God delivered them vp vnto a leawde mynd yt they shuld do tho thinges which were not comly

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

beinge full of all vnrighteous doinge of fornicacio wickednes coveteousnes maliciousnes full of envie morther debate disseyte evill codicioned whisperers

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

backbyters haters of God doers of wroge proude bosters bringers vp of evyll thinges disobedient to father and mother

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

with out vnderstondinge covenaunte breakers vnlovinge trucebreakers and merciles.

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.

Which me though they knew the rightewesnes of God how that they which soche thinges commyt are worthy of deeth yet not only do the same but also have pleasure in them that do them.
