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

and I always ask in my prayers, if perhaps now at last I may succeed in visiting you according to the will of God.

For the righteousness of God is revealed in the gospel from faith to faith, just as it is written, “The righteous by faith will live.”

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people who suppress the truth by their unrighteousness,

For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but they became futile in their thoughts and their senseless hearts were darkened.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what should not be done.

But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourselves in the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed!

on the day when God will judge the secrets of human hearts, according to my gospel through Christ Jesus.

For if by my lie the truth of God enhances his glory, why am I still actually being judged as a sinner?

God publicly displayed him at his death as the mercy seat accessible through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed.

And he is also the father of the circumcised, who are not only circumcised, but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham possessed when he was still uncircumcised.

through whom we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in the hope of God’s glory.

And hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, since we have been reconciled, will we be saved by his life?

Not only this, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received this reconciliation.

so that just as sin reigned in death, so also grace will reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

For the payoff of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

But sin, seizing the opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of wrong desires. For apart from the law, sin is dead.

Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer me doing it but sin that lives in me.

For the law of the life-giving Spirit in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.
