1 Paul, a bondman of Jesus Christ, a called apostle having been separated for the good news of God

4 He who was designated Son of God in power, according to a spirit of holiness, from a resurrection of the dead-Jesus Christ our Lord-

5 through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations on behalf of his name,

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

8 First, I indeed express thanks to my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed in the whole 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,
ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯᏰᏃ ᎠᏉᎯᏳᏓᏁᎯ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᏥᏥᏯᏛᏁᎭ ᎠᏆᏓᏅᏙ ᏥᎬᏗᎭ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᎤᏪᏥ ᎤᏤᎵᎦ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏂᎬᏁᎲᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏂᏥᏲᎯᏍᏗᏍᎬᎾ ᎢᏨᏁᎢᏍᏗᏍᎬᎢ, ᏂᎪᎯᎸ ᎦᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎬ.
10 pleading, if somehow now at last I will have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come to you.

11 For I long to see you, so that I may impart some spiritual gift to you, in order to establish you,
ᎤᏣᏘᏰᏃ ᎠᏆᏚᎵ ᎢᏨᎪᏩᏛᏗᏱ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏗᏨᏲᎯᏎᏗᏱ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᎤᏍᏗ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ ᎤᎵᏍᏕᎸᏙᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏗᏣᎵᏂᎪᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᏭᎵᏱᎶᎯᏍᏗᏱ;
12 and that is, to be mutually encouraged among you through each other's faith, both yours and mine.

13 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, that I often intended to come to you (and was prevented until now), so that I might have some fruit also among you, even as among the other Gentiles.

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

15 So the willingness is in me to preach the good news also to you in Rome.

16 For I am not ashamed of the good news of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation to every man who believes, both to the Jew first, and to the Greek.
ᎥᏝᏰᏃ ᏱᎦᏕᎣᏍᎦ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎤᏤᎵᎦ; ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᎵᏂᎩᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᎢᎬᏁᎯ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᎿᎭᎠᎾᎵᏍᏕᎸᏙᏗᏍᎬ ᎾᏂᎥ ᎠᏃᎯᏳᎲᏍᎩ; ᎠᏂᏧᏏ ᎢᎬᏱ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᏉ ᎠᏂᎪᎢ.
17 For the righteousness of God is revealed in it from faith for faith, just as it is written, And the righteous man will live from faith.
ᎾᎿᎭᏰᏃ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᎢᎬᏁᎸᎯ ᏄᏍᏛ ᎤᏓᏚᏓᎴᏍᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ, ᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏅᏛᏓᎴᎲᏍᎩ, ᎠᎴ ᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏩᏍᏆᏗᏍᏗᏍᎩ; ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᏂᎬᏅᎪᏪᎸᎢ, ᏚᏳᎪᏛᏍᎩᏂ ᎢᏯᏛᏁᎯ ᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏛᏂᏗᏍᏕᏍᏗ.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all irreverence and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
ᎤᎾᎳᏅᎯᏰᏃ ᎤᏔᎳᏬᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᎢᎬᏁᎸᎯ ᎦᎸᎶᎢ ᏨᏗᏓᎴᎲᏍᎦ ᏥᏓᎦᏘᎴᎦ ᏄᏓᎴᏒ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏄᏂᎸᏉᏛᎾ ᎨᏒ, ᎠᎴ ᏂᏚᏳᎪᏛᎾ ᎢᏳᎾᏛᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏴᏫ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᏣᏂᎾᎯᏍᏗᎭ ᎤᏲ ᏚᏂᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎲᎢ;
19 because what is knowable of God is apparent in them, for God made it known to them.

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things made, both his eternal power and divinity, for them to be without excuse. (aïdios g126)
ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ ᏗᎬᎪᏩᏛᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎨᏒ ᏧᏤᎵᎦ ᎬᏂᎨᏒᎢᏳ ᏗᎬᎪᏩᏛᏗ ᎢᎩ ᎡᎶᎯ ᏧᏙᏢᏅ ᏅᏓᎬᏩᏓᎴᏅᏛ, ᏗᎦᎪᎵᏍᏙᏗ ᎢᎩ ᏧᏓᎴᏅᏛ ᏗᎪᏢᏅᎯ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏅᏧᏓᎴᏅᎲᎾ ᎤᎵᏂᎩᏗᏳ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎥᏝ ᏳᏂᎭ ᏧᎾᏢᏫᏍᏙᏗ; (aïdios g126)
21 Because, although knowing God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful, but became vain in their reasonings and their heart was darkened without understanding.
ᎤᏂᎦᏙᎥᏒᏰᏃ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ, ᎥᏝ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎦᎸᏉᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᏳᏂᎸᏉᏙᏔᏁᎢ, ᎥᏝ ᎠᎴ ᏯᎾᎵᎮᎵᎨᎢ, ᎠᎾᏓᏅᏖᏍᎬᏍᎩᏂ ᎠᏎᏉᏉ ᏄᎵᏍᏔᏁᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᏧᏁᎫ ᏧᏂᎾᏫ ᏚᎵᏏᎲᏎᎢ;
22 Professing to be wise, they became foolish,
ᎠᏂᎦᏔᎾᎢ ᎠᎾᏤᎸᏍᎬᎢ, ᎤᏂᏁᎫ ᏄᎾᎵᏍᏔᏁᎢ;
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image like corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed things, and creeping things.

24 And for this reason God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to degrade their bodies among themselves,
ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏕᎤᏲᏎ ᎦᏓᎭ ᏧᏂᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᏗᏱ ᎤᏅᏙᏗᏱ ᎤᏅᏒ ᏧᏂᎾᏫᏱ ᎤᎾᏑᎸᏅᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᏧᏂᏐᏢᎢᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᏗᏂᏰᎸ ᎤᏅᏒᏉ ᏂᏓᎾᏓᏛᏁᎲᎢ;
25 who changed the truth of God into the lie, and worshiped and served the creation against him who created it, who is blessed into the ages. Truly. (aiōn g165)
ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏙᎯᏳᏒ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏃᎮᏍᎩ ᎤᏂᏁᏟᏴᏍᏔᏁ ᎦᏰᎪᎩ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏟ ᎢᎦᎢ ᎤᎾᏓᏙᎵᏍᏓᏁᎴ ᎠᎴ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᎤᎾᏛᏁᎴ ᎠᎪᏢᏅᎯᏉ ᎨᏒ ᎡᏍᎦᏉ ᎢᎦᎢ ᎤᏬᏢᏅᎯ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎦᎸᏉᏙᏗ ᏥᎩ ᏂᎪᎯᎸᎢ. ᎡᎺᏅ. (aiōn g165)
26 Because of this God gave them up to shameful passions, for even their females changed the natural use into what is against nature.
ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏍᏗ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏕᎤᏲᏒᎩ ᎤᏕᎰᎯᏍᏗ ᎤᎾᏚᎸᏅᏗᏱ; ᎾᏍᏉᏰᏃ ᎠᏂᎨᏴ ᏧᎾᏤᎵᎦ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᎲ ᎢᏳᎾᏛᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏂᏁᏟᏴᏍᏔᏁ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᎲ ᎢᏳᎾᏛᏁᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎨᏒᎢ.
27 And likewise also the males, having left the natural use of the female, burned in their lust toward each other, males with males producing shamelessness, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their deviancy that was fitting.
ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᏉ ᎠᏂᏍᎦᏯ ᏚᏂᏲᏍᎨ ᎢᏳᎾᏛᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏂᎨᏴ ᎨᎦᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎤᏣᏘ ᏓᎾᏓᏕᎳᏲᏍᎨ ᎤᏅᏒᏉ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎠᏂᏍᎦᏯ ᎠᏂᏍᎦᏯᏉ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᏓᎾᏓᏛᏗᏍᎨ ᏚᏂᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎮ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏕᎰᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏅᏒ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎾᎵᏩᏛᎡᎮ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᎨᎦᎫᏴᎡᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏂᎵᏓᏍᏗᏍᎬᎢ.
28 And just as they did not approve having God in knowledge, God gave them over to an unfit mind, to do things that are not fit;
