2 Διὸ Through which ἀναπολόγητος defenseless εἶ, you are, ὦ O ἄνθρωπε man πᾶς everyone ὁ the (one) κρίνων· judging; ἐν in ᾧ what γὰρ for κρίνεις you are judging τὸν the ἕτερον, different (one), σεαυτὸν yourself κατακρίνεις, you are judging down, τὰ the γὰρ for αὐτὰ very (things) πράσσεις you are performing ὁ the (one) κρίνων· judging; 2 οἴδαμεν we have known δὲ but ὅτι that τὸ the κρίμα judgment τοῦ of the θεοῦ God ἐστὶν is κατὰ according to ἀλήθειαν truth ἐπὶ upon τοὺς the (ones) τὰ the τοιαῦτα such (things) πράσσοντας. performing.

God.

12 Ὅσοι As many as γὰρ for ἀνόμως without law ἥμαρτον, they sinned, ἀνόμως without law καὶ also ἀπολοῦνται· they will be destroying selves; καὶ and ὅσοι as many as ἐν in νόμῳ law ἥμαρτον, they sinned, διὰ through νόμου law κριθήσονται· they will be judged; 13 οὐ not γὰρ for οἱ the ἀκροαταὶ hearers νόμου of law δίκαιοι righteous (ones) παρὰ beside τῷ the θεῷ, God, ἀλλ’ but οἱ the ποιηταὶ doers νόμου of law δικαιωθήσονται. will be justified. 14 ὅταν Whenever γὰρ for ἔθνη nations τὰ the (ones) μὴ not νόμον law ἔχοντα having φύσει to nature τὰ the (things) τοῦ of the νόμου law ποιῶσιν, they may be doing, οὗτοι these νόμον law μὴ not ἔχοντες having ἑαυτοῖς to selves εἰσὶν they are νόμος· law; 15 οἵτινες who ἐνδείκνυνται are showing within τὸ the ἔργον work τοῦ of the νόμου law γραπτὸν written ἐν in ταῖς the καρδίαις hearts αὐτῶν, of them, συνμαρτυρούσης bearing witness together αὐτῶν of them τῆς of the συνειδήσεως conscience καὶ and μεταξὺ between ἀλλήλων one another τῶν of the λογισμῶν reckonings κατηγορούντων accusing ἢ or καὶ also ἀπολογουμένων, defending selves, 16 ἐν in ᾗ which ἡμέρᾳ day κρίνει is judging ὁ the θεὸς God τὰ the κρυπτὰ hidden (things) τῶν of the ἀνθρώπων men κατὰ according to τὸ the εὐαγγέλιόν good news μου of me διὰ through Χριστοῦ Christ Ἰησοῦ. Jesus.

17 Εἰ If δὲ but σὺ you Ἰουδαῖος Jew ἐπονομάζῃ are being named καὶ and ἐπαναπαύῃ you are resting up upon νόμῳ law καὶ and καυχᾶσαι you are boasting ἐν in θεῷ God 18 καὶ and γινώσκεις you are knowing τὸ the θέλημα will καὶ and δοκιμάζεις you are approving τὰ the διαφέροντα things excelling κατηχούμενος being orally instructed ἐκ out of τοῦ the νόμου, Law, 19 πέποιθάς you have persuaded τε and σεαυτὸν yourself ὁδηγὸν guide εἶναι to be τυφλῶν, of blind (ones), φῶς light τῶν of the (ones) ἐν in σκότει, darkness, 20 παιδευτὴν educator ἀφρόνων, of unreasonable (ones), διδάσκαλον teacher νηπίων, of babes, ἔχοντα having τὴν the μόρφωσιν form τῆς of the γνώσεως knowledge καὶ and τῆς of the ἀληθείας truth ἐν in τῷ the νόμῳ,— Law,— 21 ὁ the (one) οὖν therefore διδάσκων teaching ἕτερον different (one) σεαυτὸν yourself οὐ not διδάσκεις; are you teaching? ὁ The (one) κηρύσσων preaching μὴ not κλέπτειν to be stealing κλέπτεις; are you stealing? 22 ὁ The (one) λέγων saying μὴ Not μοιχεύειν, to be committing adultery, μοιχεύεις; are you committing adultery? ὁ The (one) βδελυσσόμενος having disgust for τὰ the εἴδωλα idols ἱεροσυλεῖς; are you robbing temples? 23 ὃς Who ἐν in νόμῳ law καυχᾶσαι, you are boasting, διὰ through τῆς the παραβάσεως transgression τοῦ of the νόμου Law τὸν the θεὸν God ἀτιμάζεις; are you dishonoring? 24 τὸ The γὰρ for ὄνομα name τοῦ of the θεοῦ God δι’ through ὑμᾶς YOU βλασφημεῖται is being blasphemed ἐν in τοῖς the ἔθνεσιν, nations, καθὼς according as γέγραπται. it has been written.

25 περιτομὴ Circumcision μὲν indeed γὰρ for ὠφελεῖ is benefiting ἐὰν if ever νόμον law πράσσῃς· you may be performing; ἐὰν if ever δὲ but παραβάτης transgressor νόμου of law ᾖς, you may be, ἡ the περιτομή circumcision σου of you ἀκροβυστία uncircumcision γέγονεν. has become. 26 ἐὰν If ever οὖν therefore ἡ the ἀκροβυστία uncircumcision τὰ the δικαιώματα righteous requirements τοῦ of the νόμου Law φυλάσσῃ, it may be guarding, οὐχ not ἡ the ἀκροβυστία uncircumcision αὐτοῦ of him εἰς into περιτομὴν circumcision λογισθήσεται; will be reckoned? 27 καὶ And κρινεῖ will judge ἡ the ἐκ out of φύσεως nature ἀκροβυστία uncircumcision τὸν the νόμον law τελοῦσα completing σὲ you τὸν the (one) διὰ through γράμματος writing καὶ and περιτομῆς of circumcision παραβάτην transgressor νόμου. of law. 28 οὐ Not γὰρ for ὁ the (one) ἐν in τῷ the φανερῷ manifest [state] Ἰουδαῖός Jew ἐστιν, is, οὐδὲ neither ἡ the ἐν in τῷ the φανερῷ manifest [state] ἐν in σαρκὶ flesh περιτομή· circumcision; 29 ἀλλ’ but ὁ the (one) ἐν in τῷ the κρυπτῷ hidden Ἰουδαῖος, Jew, καὶ and περιτομὴ circumcision καρδίας of heart ἐν in πνεύματι spirit οὐ not γράμματι, to writing, οὗ of whom ὁ the ἔπαινος praise οὐκ not ἐξ out of ἀνθρώπων men ἀλλ’ but ἐκ out of τοῦ the θεοῦ. God.

3 Τί What οὖν therefore τὸ the περισσὸν abundant τοῦ of the Ἰουδαίου, Jew, ἢ or τίς what ἡ the ὠφελία benefit τῆς of the περιτομῆς; circumcision? 2 πολὺ Much κατὰ according to πάντα every τρόπον. manner. πρῶτον First μὲν indeed γὰρ for ὅτι because ἐπιστεύθησαν they were entrusted with τὰ the λόγια little words τοῦ of the θεοῦ. God. 3 τί What γάρ; for? εἰ If ἠπίστησάν disbelieved τινες, some, μὴ not ἡ the ἀπιστία disbelief αὐτῶν of them τὴν the πίστιν faith (fulness) τοῦ of the θεοῦ God καταργήσει; it will make without effect? 4 μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; γινέσθω let come to be δὲ but ὁ the θεὸς God ἀληθής, true, πᾶς every δὲ but ἄνθρωπος man ψεύστης, liar, καθάπερ according to which (things) even γέγραπται it has been written Ὅπως So that ἂν likely δικαιωθῇς you should be justified ἐν in τοῖς the λόγοις words σου of you καὶ and νικήσεις you should gain victory ἐν in τῷ the κρίνεσθαί to be being judged σε. you. 5 εἰ If δὲ but ἡ the ἀδικία unrighteousness ἡμῶν of us θεοῦ of God δικαιοσύνην righteousness συνίστησιν, is putting together, τί what ἐροῦμεν; shall we say? μὴ Not ἄδικος unrighteous ὁ the θεὸς God ὁ the (one) ἐπιφέρων bearing upon τὴν the ὀργήν; wrath? κατὰ According to ἄνθρωπον man λέγω. I am saying. 6 μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; ἐπεὶ since πῶς how κρινεῖ will judge ὁ the θεὸς God τὸν the κόσμον; world?

7 εἰ If δὲ but ἡ the ἀλήθεια truth τοῦ of the θεοῦ God ἐν in τῷ the ἐμῷ my ψεύσματι lie ἐπερίσσευσεν it abounded εἰς into τὴν the δόξαν glory αὐτοῦ, of him, τί why ἔτι yet κἀγὼ also I ὡς as ἁμαρτωλὸς sinner κρίνομαι, am being judged, 8 καὶ and μὴ not καθὼς according as βλασφημούμεθα we are being blasphemed καὶ and καθώς according as φασίν assert τινες some ἡμᾶς us λέγειν to be saying ὅτι that Ποιήσωμεν Let us do τὰ the κακὰ bad (things) ἵνα in order that ἔλθῃ should come τὰ the ἀγαθά; good (things)? ὧν Of whom τὸ the κρίμα judgment ἔνδικόν just ἐστιν. is.

9 Τί What οὖν; therefore? προεχόμεθα; Are we having selves before? οὐ Not πάντως, at all, προῃτιασάμεθα we previously accused γὰρ for Ἰουδαίους Jews τε and καὶ and Ἕλληνας Greeks πάντας all ὑφ’ under ἁμαρτίαν sin εἶναι, to be, 10 καθὼς according as γέγραπται it has been written ὅτι that Οὐκ Not ἔστιν is δίκαιος righteous οὐδὲ not-but εἷς, one, 11 οὐκ not ἔστιν is συνίων, (one) comprehending, οὐκ not ἔστιν is ἐκζητῶν seeking out τὸν the θεόν· God; 12 πάντες all ἐξέκλιναν, they inclined out, ἅμα together ἠχρεώθησαν· they became useless; οὐκ not ἔστιν is ποιῶν (one) doing χρηστότητα, kindness, οὐκ not ἔστιν is ἕως until ἑνός. one. 13 τάφος Grave ἀνεῳγμένος having been opened up ὁ the λάρυγξ throat αὐτῶν, of them, ταῖς to the γλώσσαις tongues αὐτῶν of them ἐδολιοῦσαν, they deceived, ἰὸς poison ἀσπίδων of asps ὑπὸ under τὰ the χείλη lips αὐτῶν, of them, 14 ὧν of whom τὸ the στόμα mouth ἀρᾶς of cursing καὶ and πικρίας bitterness γέμει· is full; 15 ὀξεῖς sharp οἱ the πόδες feet αὐτῶν of them ἐκχέαι to pour out αἷμα, blood, 16 σύντριμμα crushing καὶ and ταλαιπωρία misery ἐν in ταῖς the ὁδοῖς ways αὐτῶν, of them, 17 καὶ and ὁδὸν way εἰρήνης of peace οὐκ not ἔγνωσαν. they knew. 18 οὐκ Not ἔστιν is φόβος fear θεοῦ of God ἀπέναντι from in front τῶν of the ὀφθαλμῶν eyes αὐτῶν. of them.

19 Οἴδαμεν We have known δὲ but ὅτι that ὅσα as many (things) as ὁ the νόμος Law λέγει is saying τοῖς to the (ones) ἐν in τῷ the νόμῳ Law λαλεῖ, it is speaking, ἵνα in order that πᾶν every στόμα mouth φραγῇ might be fenced up καὶ and ὑπόδικος subject to punishment γένηται should become πᾶς all ὁ the κόσμος world τῷ to the θεῷ· God; 20 διότι through which ἐξ out of ἔργων works νόμου of law οὐ not δικαιωθήσεται will be justified πᾶσα all σὰρξ flesh ἐνώπιον in sight αὐτοῦ, of him, διὰ through γὰρ for νόμου of law ἐπίγνωσις accurate knowledge ἁμαρτίας. of sin.

21 νυνὶ Now δὲ but χωρὶς without νόμου law δικαιοσύνη righteousness θεοῦ of God πεφανέρωται, has been made manifest, μαρτυρουμένη being witnessed about ὑπὸ by τοῦ the νόμου Law καὶ and τῶν the προφητῶν, Prophets, 22 δικαιοσύνη righteousness δὲ but θεοῦ of God διὰ through πίστεως faith Ἰησοῦ of Jesus Χριστοῦ, Christ, εἰς into πάντας all τοὺς the πιστεύοντας, (ones) believing, οὐ not γάρ for ἐστιν it is διαστολή. distinction. 23 πάντες All γὰρ for ἥμαρτον they sinned καὶ and ὑστεροῦνται they are coming behind τῆς of the δόξης glory τοῦ of the θεοῦ, God, 24 δικαιούμενοι being justified δωρεὰν (as) free gift τῇ to the αὐτοῦ of him χάριτι undeserved kindness διὰ through τῆς the ἀπολυτρώσεως release by ransom τῆς of the ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ· Jesus; 25 ὃν whom προέθετο set forth ὁ the θεὸς God ἱλαστήριον propitiatory διὰ through πίστεως faith ἐν in τῷ the αὐτοῦ of him αἵματι blood εἰς into ἔνδειξιν showing within τῆς of the δικαιοσύνης righteousness αὐτοῦ of him διὰ through τὴν the πάρεσιν letting go beside τῶν of the προγεγονότων having previously occurred ἁμαρτημάτων sins 26 ἐν in τῇ the ἀνοχῇ forbearance τοῦ of the θεοῦ, God, πρὸς toward τὴν the ἔνδειξιν showing within τῆς of the δικαιοσύνης righteousness αὐτοῦ of him ἐν in τῷ the νῦν now καιρῷ, appointed time, εἰς into τὸ the εἶναι to be αὐτὸν him δίκαιον righteous καὶ and δικαιοῦντα justifying τὸν the (one) ἐκ out of πίστεως faith Ἰησοῦ. of Jesus.

27 Ποῦ Where οὖν therefore ἡ the καύχησις; boasting? ἐξεκλείσθη. It was shut out. διὰ Through ποίου what sort of νόμου; law? τῶν Of the ἔργων; works? οὐχί, No, ἀλλὰ but διὰ through νόμου law πίστεως. of faith. 28 λογιζόμεθα We are reckoning γὰρ for δικαιοῦσθαι to be being justified πίστει to faith ἄνθρωπον man χωρὶς apart from ἔργων works νόμου. of law. 29 ἢ Or Ἰουδαίων of Jews ὁ the θεὸς God μόνον; only? οὐχὶ Not καὶ also ἐθνῶν; of nations? ναὶ Yes καὶ also ἐθνῶν, of nations, 30 εἴπερ if even εἷς one ὁ the θεός, God, ὃς who δικαιώσει will justify περιτομὴν circumcision ἐκ out of πίστεως faith καὶ and ἀκροβυστίαν uncircumcision διὰ through τῆς the πίστεως. faith. 31 νόμον Law οὖν therefore καταργοῦμεν we are making ineffective διὰ through τῆς the πίστεως; faith? μὴ Not γένοιτο, may it occur, ἀλλὰ but νόμον law ἱστάνομεν. we are establishing.

4 Τί What οὖν therefore ἐροῦμεν shall we say ᾿Αβραὰμ Abraham τὸν the προπάτορα forefather ἡμῶν of us κατὰ according to σάρκα; flesh? 2 εἰ If γὰρ for ᾿Αβραὰμ Abraham ἐξ out of ἔργων works ἐδικαιώθη, was justified, ἔχει he is having καύχημα· cause for boasting; ἀλλ’ but οὐ not πρὸς toward θεόν, God, 3 τί what γὰρ for ἡ the γραφὴ scripture λέγει; is saying? ᾿Επίστευσεν Believed δὲ but ᾿Αβραὰμ Abraham τῷ to the θεῷ, God, καὶ and ἐλογίσθη it was reckoned αὐτῷ to him εἰς into δικαιοσύνην. righteousness. 4 τῷ To the (one) δὲ but ἐργαζομένῳ working ὁ the μισθὸς reward οὐ not λογίζεται is being reckoned κατὰ according to χάριν undeserved kindness ἀλλὰ but κατὰ according to ὀφείλημα· debt; 5 τῷ to the (one) δὲ but μὴ not ἐργαζομένῳ, working, πιστεύοντι believing δὲ but ἐπὶ upon τὸν the (one) δικαιοῦντα justifying τὸν the ἀσεβῆ, irreverential, λογίζεται is being reckoned ἡ the πίστις faith αὐτοῦ of him εἰς into δικαιοσύνην, righteousness, 6 καθάπερ according to which (things) even καὶ also Δαυεὶδ David λέγει is saying τὸν the μακαρισμὸν happiness τοῦ of the ἀνθρώπου man ᾧ to whom ὁ the θεὸς God λογίζεται is counting δικαιοσύνην righteousness χωρὶς apart from ἔργων works 7 Μακάριοι Happy (ones) ὧν of whom ἀφέθησαν were let go off αἱ the ἀνομίαι lawlessnesses καὶ and ὧν of whom ἐπεκαλύφθησαν were covered upon αἱ the ἁμαρτίαι, sins, 8 μακάριος happy ἀνὴρ male person οὗ of whom οὐ not μὴ not λογίσηται should reckon Κύριος Lord ἁμαρτίαν. sin.

9 ὁ The μακαρισμὸς happiness οὖν therefore οὗτος this ἐπὶ upon τὴν the περιτομὴν circumcision ἢ or καὶ also ἐπὶ upon τὴν the ἀκροβυστίαν; uncircumcision? λέγομεν We are saying γάρ for ᾿Ελογίσθη It was reckoned τῷ to the ᾿Αβραὰμ Abraham ἡ the πίστις faith εἰς into δικαιοσύνην. righteousness. 10 πῶς How οὖν therefore ἐλογίσθη; was it reckoned? ἐν In περιτομῇ circumcision ὄντι to [him] being ἢ or ἐν in ἀκροβυστίᾳ; uncircumcision? οὐκ Not ἐν in περιτομῇ circumcision ἀλλ’ but ἐν in ἀκροβυστίᾳ· uncircumcision; 11 καὶ and σημεῖον sign ἔλαβεν he received περιτομῆς, of circumcision, σφραγῖδα seal τῆς of the δικαιοσύνης righteousness τῆς of the πίστεως faith τῆς of the ἐν in τῇ the ἀκροβυστίᾳ, uncircumcision, εἰς into τὸ the εἶναι to be αὐτὸν him πατέρα father πάντων of all τῶν the (ones) πιστευόντων believing δι’ through ἀκροβυστίας, uncircumcision, εἰς into τὸ the λογισθῆναι to be reckoned αὐτοῖς to them τὴν the δικαιοσύνην, righteousness, 12 καὶ and πατέρα father περιτομῆς of circumcision τοῖς to the (ones) οὐκ not ἐκ out of περιτομῆς circumcision μόνον only ἀλλὰ but καὶ also τοῖς to the (ones) στοιχοῦσιν proceeding orderly τοῖς to the ἴχνεσιν footsteps τῆς of the ἐν in ἀκροβυστίᾳ uncircumcision πίστεως of faith τοῦ of the πατρὸς father ἡμῶν of us ᾿Αβραάμ. Abraham.

13 Οὐ Not γὰρ for διὰ through νόμου law ἡ the ἐπαγγελία promise τῷ to the ᾿Αβραὰμ Abraham ἢ or τῷ to the σπέρματι seed αὐτοῦ, of him, τὸ the κληρονόμον heir αὐτὸν him εἶναι to be κόσμου, of world, ἀλλὰ but διὰ through δικαιοσύνης righteousness πίστεως· of faith; 14 εἰ if γὰρ for οἱ the (ones) ἐκ out of νόμου law κληρονόμοι, heirs, κεκένωται has been made empty ἡ the πίστις faith καὶ and κατήργηται has been made ineffective ἡ the ἐπαγγελία· promise; 15 ὁ the γὰρ for νόμος Law ὀργὴν wrath κατεργάζεται, is working down, οὗ where δὲ but οὐκ not ἔστιν is νόμος, law, οὐδὲ neither παράβασις. transgression.

23 Οὐκ Not ἐγράφη it was written δὲ but δι’ through αὐτὸν him μόνον only ὅτι that ἐλογίσθη it was reckoned αὐτῷ, to him, 24 ἀλλὰ but καὶ also δι’ through ἡμᾶς us οἷς to whom μέλλει it is about λογίζεσθαι, to be being reckoned, τοῖς to the (ones) πιστεύουσιν believing ἐπὶ upon τὸν the (one) ἐγείραντα having raised up Ἰησοῦν Jesus τὸν the κύριον Lord ἡμῶν of us ἐκ out of νεκρῶν, dead (ones), 25 ὃς who παρεδόθη was given beside διὰ through τὰ the παραπτώματα trespasses ἡμῶν of us καὶ and ἠγέρθη he was raised up διὰ through τὴν the δικαίωσιν justification ἡμῶν. of us.

5 Δικαιωθέντες Having been justified οὖν therefore ἐκ out of πίστεως faith εἰρήνην peace ἔχωμεν may we be having πρὸς toward τὸν the θεὸν God διὰ through τοῦ the κυρίου Lord ἡμῶν of us Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ, Christ, 2 δι’ through οὗ whom καὶ also τὴν the προσαγωγὴν going toward ἐσχήκαμεν we have had τῇ to the πίστει faith εἰς into τὴν the χάριν undeserved kindness ταύτην this ἐν in ᾗ which ἑστήκαμεν, we have been standing, καὶ and καυχώμεθα may we boast ἐπ’ upon ἐλπίδι hope τῆς of the δόξης glory τοῦ of the θεοῦ· God; 3 οὐ not μόνον only δέ, but, ἀλλὰ but καὶ also καυχώμεθα may we boast ἐν in ταῖς the θλίψεσιν, tribulations, εἰδότες having known ὅτι that ἡ the θλίψις tribulation ὑπομονὴν endurance κατεργάζεται, is working down, 4 ἡ the δὲ but ὑπομονὴ endurance δοκιμήν, testedness, ἡ the δὲ but δοκιμὴ testedness ἐλπίδα, hope, 5 ἡ the δὲ but ἐλπὶς hope οὐ not καταισχύνει. is putting to shame. ὅτι Because ἡ the ἀγάπη love τοῦ of the θεοῦ God ἐκκέχυται has been poured out ἐν in ταῖς the καρδίαις hearts ἡμῶν of us διὰ through πνεύματος spirit ἁγίου holy τοῦ the (thing) δοθέντος having been given ἡμῖν· to us;

6 εἴ if γε in fact Χριστὸς Christ ὄντων being ἡμῶν of us ἀσθενῶν weak ἔτι yet κατὰ according to καιρὸν appointed time ὑπὲρ over ἀσεβῶν irreverential (ones) ἀπέθανεν. he died. 7 μόλις With difficulty γὰρ for ὑπὲρ over δικαίου of righteous (one) τις anyone ἀποθανεῖται· will die; ὑπὲρ over γὰρ for τοῦ the ἀγαθοῦ good (one) τάχα swiftly τις anyone καὶ also τολμᾶ is daring ἀποθανεῖν· to die; 8 συνίστησιν is putting together δὲ but τὴν the ἑαυτοῦ of himself ἀγάπην love εἰς into ἡμᾶς us ὁ the θεὸς God ὅτι because ἔτι yet ἁμαρτωλῶν of sinners ὄντων being ἡμῶν of us Χριστὸς Christ ὑπὲρ over ἡμῶν us ἀπέθανεν. died. 9 πολλῷ To much οὖν therefore μᾶλλον rather δικαιωθέντες having been justified νῦν now ἐν in τῷ the αἵματι blood αὐτοῦ of him σωθησόμεθα we will be saved δι’ through αὐτοῦ him ἀπὸ from τῆς the ὀργῆς. wrath. 10 εἰ If γὰρ for ἐχθροὶ enemies ὄντες being κατηλλάγημεν we were reconciled τῷ to the θεῷ God διὰ through τοῦ the θανάτου death τοῦ of the υἱοῦ Son αὐτοῦ, of him, πολλῷ to much μᾶλλον rather καταλλαγέντες having been reconciled σωθησόμεθα we shall be saved ἐν in τῇ the ζωῇ life αὐτοῦ· of him; 11 οὐ not μόνον only δέ, but, ἀλλὰ but καὶ also καυχώμενοι (ones) boasting ἐν in τῷ the θεῷ God διὰ through τοῦ the κυρίου Lord ἡμῶν of us Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ, Christ, δι’ through οὗ whom νῦν now τὴν the καταλλαγὴν reconciliation ἐλάβομεν. we received.

12 Διὰ Through τοῦτο this ὥσπερ as-even δι’ through ἑνὸς one ἀνθρώπου man ἡ the ἁμαρτία sin εἰς into τὸν the κόσμον world εἰσῆλθεν entered καὶ and διὰ through τῆς the ἁμαρτίας sin ὁ the θάνατος, death, καὶ and οὕτως thus εἰς into πάντας all ἀνθρώπους men ὁ the θάνατος death διῆλθεν went through ἐφ’ upon ᾧ which πάντες all ἥμαρτον—. they sinned—. 13 ἄχρι Until γὰρ for νόμου law ἁμαρτία sin ἦν was ἐν in κόσμῳ, world, ἁμαρτία sin δὲ but οὐκ not ἐλλογᾶται is being put in account μὴ not ὄντος being νόμου, of law, 14 ἀλλὰ but ἐβασίλευσεν reigned ὁ the θάνατος death ἀπὸ from ᾿Αδὰμ Adam μέχρι as far as Μωυσέως Moses καὶ also ἐπὶ upon τοὺς the (ones) μὴ not ἁμαρτήσαντας having sinned ἐπὶ upon τῷ the ὁμοιώματι likeness τῆς of the παραβάσεως transgression ᾿Αδάμ, of Adam, ὅς who ἐστιν is τύπος type τοῦ of the (one) μέλλοντος. being about to.

15 ᾿Αλλ’ But οὐχ not ὡς as τὸ the παράπτωμα, trespass, οὕτως so καὶ also τὸ the χάρισμα· gracious gift; εἰ if γὰρ for τῷ to the τοῦ of the ἑνὸς one παραπτώματι to trespass οἱ the πολλοὶ many ἀπέθανον, died, πολλῷ to much μᾶλλον rather ἡ the χάρις undeserved kindness τοῦ of the θεοῦ God καὶ and ἡ the δωρεὰ free gift ἐν in χάριτι undeserved kindness τῇ to the τοῦ of the ἑνὸς one ἀνθρώπου man Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ Christ εἰς into τοὺς the πολλοὺς many ἐπερίσσευσεν. it abounded. 16 καὶ And οὐχ not ὡς as δι’ through ἑνὸς one ἁμαρτήσαντος having sinned τὸ the δώρημα· present; τὸ the μὲν indeed γὰρ for κρίμα judgment ἐξ out of ἑνὸς one εἰς into κατάκριμα, condemnation, τὸ the δὲ but χάρισμα gracious gift ἐκ out of πολλῶν many παραπτωμάτων trespasses εἰς into δικαίωμα. declaring righteous. 17 εἰ If γὰρ for τῷ to the τοῦ of the ἑνὸς one παραπτώματι to trespass ὁ the θάνατος death ἐβασίλευσεν reigned διὰ through τοῦ the ἑνός, one, πολλῷ to much μᾶλλον rather οἱ the (ones) τὴν the περισσείαν abundance τῆς of the χάριτος undeserved kindness καὶ and τῆς of the δωρεᾶς free gift τῆς of the δικαιοσύνης righteousness λαμβάνοντες (ones) receiving ἐν in ζωῇ life βασιλεύσουσιν will reign διὰ through τοῦ the ἑνὸς one Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ. Christ.

18 Ἄρα Really οὖν therefore ὡς as δι’ through ἑνὸς one παραπτώματος trespass εἰς into πάντας all ἀνθρώπους men εἰς into κατάκριμα, condemnation, οὕτως thus καὶ also δι’ through ἑνὸς one δικαιώματος righteous act εἰς into πάντας all ἀνθρώπους men εἰς into δικαίωσιν justification ζωῆς· of life; 19 ὥσπερ as-even γὰρ for διὰ through τῆς the παρακοῆς hearing beside τοῦ of the ἑνὸς one ἀνθρώπου man ἁμαρτωλοὶ sinners κατεστάθησαν were constituted οἱ the πολλοί, many, οὕτως thus καὶ also διὰ through τῆς the ὑπακοῆς hearing under τοῦ of the ἑνὸς one δίκαιοι righteous (ones) κατασταθήσονται will be constituted οἱ the πολλοί. many. 20 νόμος Law δὲ but παρεισῆλθεν entered beside ἵνα in order that πλεονάσῃ might become more τὸ the παράπτωμα· trespass; οὗ where δὲ but ἐπλεόνασεν became more ἡ the ἁμαρτία, sin, ὑπερεπερίσσευσεν overabounded ἡ the χάρις, undeserved kindness, 21 ἵνα in order that ὥσπερ as-even ἐβασίλευσεν reigned ἡ the ἁμαρτία sin ἐν in τῷ the θανάτῳ, death, οὕτως thus καὶ also ἡ the χάρις undeserved kindness βασιλεύσῃ might reign διὰ through δικαιοσύνης righteousness εἰς into ζωὴν life αἰώνιον everlasting διὰ through Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ Christ τοῦ the κυρίου Lord ἡμῶν. of us.

6 Τί What οὖν therefore ἐροῦμεν; shall we say? ἐπιμένωμεν May we remain upon τῇ the ἁμαρτίᾳ, sin, ἵνα in order that ἡ the χάρις undeserved kindness πλεονάσῃ; might become more? 2 μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; οἵτινες who ἀπεθάνομεν we died τῇ to the ἁμαρτίᾳ, sin, πῶς how ἔτι yet ζήσομεν shall we live ἐν in αὐτῇ; it? 3 ἢ Or ἀγνοεῖτε are YOU ignorant ὅτι that ὅσοι as many as ἐβαπτίσθημεν we were baptized εἰς into Χριστὸν Christ Ἰησοῦν Jesus εἰς into τὸν the θάνατον death αὐτοῦ of him ἐβαπτίσθημεν; we were baptized? 4 συνετάφημεν We were buried together οὖν therefore αὐτῷ to him διὰ through τοῦ the βαπτίσματος baptism εἰς into τὸν the θάνατον, death ἵνα in order that ὥσπερ as-even ἠγέρθη was raised up Χριστὸς Christ ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) διὰ through τῆς the δόξης glory τοῦ of the πατρός, Father, οὕτως thus καὶ also ἡμεῖς we ἐν in καινότητι newness ζωῆς of life περιπατήσωμεν. we should walk. 5 εἰ If γὰρ for σύμφυτοι (ones) planted together γεγόναμεν we have become τῷ to the ὁμοιώματι likeness τοῦ of the θανάτου death αὐτοῦ, of him, ἀλλὰ but καὶ also τῆς of the ἀναστάσεως resurrection ἐσόμεθα· we shall be; 6 τοῦτο this γινώσκοντες knowing ὅτι that ὁ the παλαιὸς old ἡμῶν of us ἄνθρωπος man συνεσταυρώθη, was put on stake together, ἵνα in order that καταργηθῇ might be made ineffective τὸ the σῶμα body τῆς of the ἁμαρτίας, sin, τοῦ of the μηκέτι not yet δουλεύειν to be slaving ἡμᾶς us τῇ to the ἁμαρτίᾳ, sin, 7 ὁ the (one) γὰρ for ἀποθανὼν having died δεδικαίωται has been justified ἀπὸ from τῆς the ἁμαρτίας. sin.

8 εἰ If δὲ but ἀπεθάνομεν we died σὺν together with Χριστῷ, Christ, πιστεύομεν we are believing ὅτι that καὶ also συνζήσομεν we shall live with αὐτῷ· him; 9 εἰδότες having known ὅτι that Χριστὸς Christ ἐγερθεὶς having been raised up ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) οὐκέτι not yet ἀποθνήσκει, he is dying, θάνατος death αὐτοῦ of him οὐκέτι not yet κυριεύει· is lording over; 10 ὃ which γὰρ for ἀπέθανεν, he died, τῇ to the ἁμαρτίᾳ sin ἀπέθανεν he died ἐφάπαξ· once for all time; ὃ which δὲ but ζῇ, he is living, ζῇ he is living τῷ to the θεῷ. God. 11 οὕτως Thus καὶ also ὑμεῖς YOU λογίζεσθε be reckoning ἑαυτοὺς selves εἶναι to be νεκροὺς dead (ones) μὲν indeed τῇ to the ἁμαρτίᾳ sin ζῶντας (ones) living δὲ but τῷ to the θεῷ God ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ. Jesus.

12 Μὴ Not οὖν therefore βασιλευέτω let be reigning ἡ the ἁμαρτία sin ἐν in τῷ the θνητῷ mortal ὑμῶν of YOU σώματι body εἰς into τὸ the ὑπακούειν to be obeying ταῖς to the ἐπιθυμίαις desires αὐτοῦ, of it, 13 μηδὲ neither παριστάνετε be YOU presenting τὰ the μέλη members ὑμῶν of YOU ὅπλα weapons ἀδικίας of unrighteousness τῇ to the ἁμαρτίᾳ, sin, ἀλλὰ but παραστήσατε make YOU stand alongside ἑαυτοὺς selves τῷ to the θεῷ God ὡσεὶ as if ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) ζῶντας living καὶ and τὰ the μέλη members ὑμῶν of YOU ὅπλα weapons δικαιοσύνης of righteousness τῷ to the θεῷ· God; 14 ἁμαρτία sin γὰρ for ὑμῶν of YOU οὐ not κυριεύσει, will lord over, οὐ not γάρ for ἐστε YOU are ὑπὸ under νόμον law ἀλλὰ but ὑπὸ under χάριν. undeserved kindness.

15 Τί What οὖν; therefore? ἁμαρτήσωμεν Should we sin ὅτι because οὐκ not ἐσμὲν we are ὑπὸ under νόμον law ἀλλὰ but ὑπὸ under χάριν; undeserved kindness? μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; 16 οὐκ not οἴδατε have YOU known ὅτι that ᾧ to whom παριστάνετε YOU are presenting ἑαυτοὺς selves δούλους slaves εἰς into ὑπακοήν, obedience, δοῦλοί slaves ἐστε YOU are ᾧ to whom ὑπακούετε, YOU are obeying, ἤτοι either ἁμαρτίας of sin εἰς into θάνατον death ἢ or ὑπακοῆς of obedience εἰς into δικαιοσύνην; righteousness? 17 χάρις Thanks δὲ but τῷ to the θεῷ God ὅτι that ἦτε YOU were δοῦλοι slaves τῆς of the ἁμαρτίας sin ὑπηκούσατε YOU obeyed δὲ but ἐκ out of καρδίας heart εἰς into ὃν which παρεδόθητε YOU were given beside τύπον type διδαχῆς, of teaching, 18 ἐλευθερωθέντες having been freed δὲ but ἀπὸ from τῆς the ἁμαρτίας sin ἐδουλώθητε YOU were enslaved τῇ to the δικαιοσύνῃ· righteousness; 19 ἀνθρώπινον (thing) belonging to man λέγω I am saying διὰ through τὴν the ἀσθένειαν weakness τῆς of the σαρκὸς flesh ὑμῶν· of YOU; ὥσπερ as-even γὰρ for παρεστήσατε YOU made stand alongside τὰ the μέλη members ὑμῶν of YOU δοῦλα slavish (things) τῇ to the ἀκαθαρσίᾳ uncleanness καὶ and τῇ to the ἀνομίᾳ lawlessness εἰς into τὴν the ἀνομίαν, lawlessness, οὕτω thus νῦν now παραστήσατε make YOU stand alongside τὰ the μέλη members ὑμῶν of YOU δοῦλα slavish (things) τῇ to the δικαιοσύνῃ righteousness εἰς into ἁγιασμόν· holiness; 20 ὅτε when γὰρ for δοῦλοι slaves ἦτε YOU were τῆς of the ἁμαρτίας, sin, ἐλεύθεροι free ἦτε YOU were τῇ to the δικαιοσύνῃ. righteousness.

21 τίνα What οὖν therefore καρπὸν fruit εἴχετε were YOU having τότε then ἐφ’ upon οἷς which (things) νῦν now ἐπαισχύνεσθε; YOU are being ashamed? τὸ The γὰρ for τέλος end ἐκείνων of those (things) θάνατος· death; 22 νυνὶ now δέ, but, ἐλευθερωθέντες having been freed ἀπὸ from τῆς the ἁμαρτίας sin δουλωθέντες having been enslaved δὲ but τῷ to the θεῷ, God, ἔχετε YOU are having τὸν the καρπὸν fruit ὑμῶν of YOU εἰς into ἁγιασμόν, holiness, τὸ the δὲ but τέλος end ζωὴν life αἰώνιον. everlasting. 23 τὰ The γὰρ for ὀψώνια wages τῆς of the ἁμαρτίας sin θάνατος, death, τὸ the δὲ but χάρισμα gracious gift τοῦ of the θεοῦ God ζωὴ life αἰώνιος everlasting ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus τῷ the κυρίῳ Lord ἡμῶν. of us.

7 Ἢ Or ἀγνοεῖτε, are YOU being ignorant, ἀδελφοί, brothers, γινώσκουσιν to (ones) knowing γὰρ for νόμον law λαλῶ, I am speaking, ὅτι that ὁ the νόμος law κυριεύει is lording over τοῦ of the ἀνθρώπου man ἐφ’ upon ὅσον as much as χρόνον time ζῇ; he is living? 2 ἡ The γὰρ for ὕπανδρος subject to male person γυνὴ woman τῷ to the ζῶντι living ἀνδρὶ male person δέδεται has been bound νόμῳ· to law; ἐὰν if ever δὲ but ἀποθάνῃ should die ὁ the ἀνήρ, male person, κατήργηται she has been annulled ἀπὸ from τοῦ the νόμου law τοῦ of the ἀνδρός. male person. 3 ἄρα Really οὖν therefore ζῶντος living τοῦ of the ἀνδρὸς male person μοιχαλὶς adulteress χρηματίσει she will get named (divinely) ἐὰν if ever γένηται she should become ἀνδρὶ to male person ἑτέρῳ· different; ἐὰν if ever δὲ but ἀποθάνῃ should die ὁ the ἀνήρ, male person, ἐλευθέρα free ἐστὶν she is ἀπὸ from τοῦ the νόμου, law, τοῦ of the μὴ not εἶναι to be αὐτὴν her μοιχαλίδα adulteress γενομένην having become ἀνδρὶ to male person ἑτέρῳ. different.

4 ὥστε, As-and, ἀδελφοί brothers μου, of me, καὶ also ὑμεῖς YOU ἐθανατώθητε were put to death τῷ to the νόμῳ Law διὰ through τοῦ the σώματος body τοῦ of the χριστοῦ, Christ, εἰς into τὸ the γενέσθαι to become ὑμᾶς YOU ἑτέρῳ, to different (one), τῷ to the (one) ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) ἐγερθέντι having been raised up ἵνα in order that καρποφορήσωμεν we should bear fruit τῷ to the θεῷ. God. 5 ὅτε When γὰρ for ἦμεν we were ἐν in τῇ the σαρκί, flesh, τὰ the παθήματα passions τῶν of the ἁμαρτιῶν sins τὰ the (ones) διὰ through τοῦ the νόμου Law ἐνηργεῖτο was at work within ἐν in τοῖς the μέλεσιν members ἡμῶν of us εἰς into τὸ the καρποφορῆσαι to bear fruit τῷ to the θανάτῳ· death; 6 νυνὶ now δὲ but κατηργήθημεν we have been annulled ἀπὸ from τοῦ the νόμου, Law, ἀποθανόντες having died ἐν in ᾧ which κατειχόμεθα, we were being held down, ὥστε as-and δουλεύειν to be slaving ἡμᾶς us ἐν in καινότητι newness πνεύματος of spirit καὶ and οὐ not παλαιότητι to oldness γράμματος. of writing.

7 Τί What οὖν therefore ἐροῦμεν; shall we say? ὁ The νόμος Law ἁμαρτία; sin? μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; ἀλλὰ but τὴν the ἁμαρτίαν sin οὐκ not ἔγνων I knew εἰ if μὴ not διὰ through νόμου, Law, τήν the τε and γὰρ for ἐπιθυμίαν desire οὐκ not ᾔδειν I had known εἰ if μὴ not ὁ the νόμος Law ἔλεγεν was saying Οὐκ Not ἐπιθυμήσεις· you shall desire; 8 ἀφορμὴν onrush off δὲ but λαβοῦσα having received ἡ the ἁμαρτία sin διὰ through τῆς the ἐντολῆς commandment κατειργάσατο worked down ἐν in ἐμοὶ me πᾶσαν every ἐπιθυμίαν, desire, χωρὶς apart from γὰρ for νόμου of law ἁμαρτία sin νεκρά. dead (one). 9 ἐγὼ I δὲ but ἔζων was living χωρὶς apart from νόμου law ποτέ· once; ἐλθούσης having come δὲ but τῆς of the ἐντολῆς commandment ἡ the ἁμαρτία sin ἀνέζησεν, lived again, ἐγὼ I δὲ but ἀπέθανον, died, 10 καὶ and εὑρέθη was found μοι to me ἡ the ἐντολὴ commandment ἡ the (one) εἰς into ζωὴν life αὕτη this εἰς into θάνατον· death; 11 ἡ the γὰρ for ἁμαρτία sin ἀφορμὴν onrush off λαβοῦσα having received διὰ through τῆς the ἐντολῆς commandment ἐξηπάτησέν seduced με me καὶ and δι’ through αὐτῆς it ἀπέκτεινεν. it killed. 12 ὥστε As-and ὁ the μὲν indeed νόμος law ἅγιος, holy, καὶ and ἡ the ἐντολὴ commandment ἁγία holy καὶ and δικαία righteous καὶ and ἀγαθή. good.

13 Τὸ The (thing) οὖν therefore ἀγαθὸν good ἐμοὶ to me ἐγένετο became θάνατος; death? μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; ἀλλὰ but ἡ the ἁμαρτία, sin, ἵνα in order that φανῇ it might appear ἁμαρτία sin διὰ through τοῦ the (thing) ἀγαθοῦ good μοι to me κατεργαζομένη working down θάνατον· death; ἵνα in order that γένηται might become καθ’ according to ὑπερβολὴν over-cast ἁμαρτωλὸς sinful ἡ the ἁμαρτία sin διὰ through τῆς the ἐντολῆς. commandment. 14 οἴδαμεν We have known γὰρ for ὅτι that ὁ the νόμος Law πνευματικός spiritual ἐστιν· is; ἐγὼ I δὲ but σάρκινός fleshly εἰμι, I am, πεπραμένος having been sold ὑπὸ under τὴν the ἁμαρτίαν. sin. 15 ὃ Which γὰρ for κατεργάζομαι I am working down οὐ not γινώσκω· I am knowing; οὐ not γὰρ for ὃ which θέλω I am willing τοῦτο this πράσσω, I am performing, ἀλλ’ but ὃ which μισῶ I am hating τοῦτο this ποιῶ. I am doing. 16 εἰ If δὲ but ὃ which οὐ not θέλω I am willing τοῦτο this ποιῶ, I am doing, σύνφημι I am saying with τῷ to the νόμῳ Law ὅτι that καλός. fine. 17 Νυνὶ Now δὲ but οὐκέτι not yet ἐγὼ I κατεργάζομαι am working down αὐτὸ it ἀλλὰ but ἡ the ἐνοικοῦσα indwelling ἐν in ἐμοὶ me ἁμαρτία. sin. 18 οἶδα I have known γὰρ for ὅτι that οὐκ not οἰκεῖ is dwelling ἐν in ἐμοί, me, τοῦτ’ this ἔστιν is ἐν in τῇ the σαρκί flesh μου, of me, ἀγαθόν· good (thing); τὸ the γὰρ for θέλειν to be willing παράκειταί is lying alongside μοι, to me, τὸ the δὲ but κατεργάζεσθαι to be working down τὸ the (thing) καλὸν fine οὔ· not; 19 οὐ not γὰρ for ὃ which (thing) θέλω I am willing ποιῶ I am doing ἀγαθόν, good, ἀλλὰ but ὃ which (thing) οὐ not θέλω I am willing κακὸν bad τοῦτο this πράσσω. I am performing. 20 εἰ If δὲ but ὃ which (thing) οὐ not θέλω I am willing τοῦτο this ποιῶ, I am doing, οὐκέτι not yet ἐγὼ I κατεργάζομαι am working down αὐτὸ it ἀλλὰ but ἡ the οἰκοῦσα dwelling ἐν in ἐμοὶ me ἁμαρτία. sin.

21 Εὑρίσκω I am finding ἄρα really τὸν the νόμον law τῷ to the (one) θέλοντι willing ἐμοὶ to me ποιεῖν to be doing τὸ the καλὸν fine (thing) ὅτι that ἐμοὶ to me τὸ the κακὸν bad (thing) παράκειται· is lying alongside; 22 συνήδομαι I delight with γὰρ for τῷ to the νόμῳ law τοῦ of the θεοῦ God κατὰ according to τὸν the ἔσω inside ἄνθρωπον, man, 23 βλέπω I am looking at δὲ but ἕτερον different νόμον law ἐν in τοῖς the μέλεσίν members μου of me ἀντιστρατευόμενον warring against τῷ to the νόμῳ law τοῦ of the νοός mind μου of me καὶ and αἰχμαλωτίζοντά taking captive με me ἐν in τῷ the νόμῳ law τῆς of the ἁμαρτίας sin τῷ to the (one) ὄντι being ἐν in τοῖς the μέλεσίν members μου. of me. 24 ταλαίπωρος Callus-bearing ἐγὼ I ἄνθρωπος· man; τίς who με me ῥύσεται will draw for self ἐκ out of τοῦ the σώματος body τοῦ of the θανάτου death τούτου; this? 25 χάρις Thanks δὲ but τῷ to the θεῷ God διὰ through Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ Christ τοῦ the κυρίου Lord ἡμῶν. of us. ἄρα Really οὖν therefore αὐτὸς very ἐγὼ I τῷ to the μὲν indeed νοΐ mind δουλεύω I am slaving νόμῳ to law θεοῦ, of God, τῇ to the δὲ but σαρκὶ flesh νόμῳ to law ἁμαρτίας. of sin.

8 Οὐδὲν Nothing ἄρα really νῦν now κατάκριμα condemnation τοῖς to the (ones) ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ· Jesus; 2 ὁ the γὰρ for νόμος law τοῦ of the πνεύματος spirit τῆς of the ζωῆς life ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus ἠλευθέρωσέν freed σε you ἀπὸ from τοῦ the νόμου law τῆς of the ἁμαρτίας sin καὶ and τοῦ of the θανάτου. death. 3 τὸ The γὰρ for ἀδύνατον not powerful (ness) τοῦ of the νόμου, Law, ἐν in ᾧ which ἠσθένει it was being weak διὰ through τῆς the σαρκός, flesh, ὁ the θεὸς God τὸν the ἑαυτοῦ of himself υἱὸν Son πέμψας having sent ἐν in ὁμοιώματι likeness σαρκὸς of flesh ἁμαρτίας of sin καὶ and περὶ about ἁμαρτίας sin κατέκρινε he judged down τὴν the ἁμαρτίαν sin ἐν in τῇ the σαρκί, flesh, 4 ἵνα in order that τὸ the δικαίωμα righteous requirement τοῦ of the νόμου Law πληρωθῇ might be fulfilled ἐν in ἡμῖν us τοῖς the (ones) μὴ not κατὰ according to σάρκα flesh περιπατοῦσιν walking about ἀλλὰ but κατὰ according to πνεῦμα· spirit; 5 οἱ the (ones) γὰρ for κατὰ according to σάρκα flesh ὄντες being τὰ the (things) τῆς of the σαρκὸς flesh φρονοῦσιν, are minding, οἱ the (ones) δὲ but κατὰ according to πνεῦμα spirit τὰ the (things) τοῦ of the πνεύματος. spirit. 6 τὸ The γὰρ for φρόνημα minding τῆς of the σαρκὸς flesh θάνατος, death, τὸ the δὲ but φρόνημα minding τοῦ of the πνεύματος spirit ζωὴ life καὶ and εἰρήνη· peace; 7 διότι through which τὸ the φρόνημα minding τῆς of the σαρκὸς flesh ἔχθρα enmity εἰς into θεόν, God, τῷ to the γὰρ for νόμῳ law τοῦ of the θεοῦ God οὐχ not ὑποτάσσεται, it is being subjected, οὐδὲ not-but γὰρ for δύναται· it is able; 8 οἱ the (ones) δὲ but ἐν in σαρκὶ flesh ὄντες being θεῷ to God ἀρέσαι to please οὐ not δύνανται. they are able.

9 Ὑμεῖς YOU δὲ but οὐκ not ἐστὲ YOU are ἐν in σαρκὶ flesh ἀλλὰ but ἐν in πνεύματι, spirit, εἴπερ if even πνεῦμα spirit θεοῦ of God οἰκεῖ is dwelling ἐν in ὑμῖν. YOU. εἰ If δέ but τις anyone πνεῦμα spirit Χριστοῦ of Christ οὐκ not ἔχει, is having, οὗτος this (one) οὐκ not ἔστιν is αὐτοῦ. of him. 10 εἰ If δὲ but Χριστὸς Christ ἐν in ὑμῖν, YOU, τὸ the μὲν indeed σῶμα body νεκρὸν dead διὰ through ἁμαρτίαν, sin, τὸ the δὲ but πνεῦμα spirit ζωὴ life διὰ through δικαιοσύνην. righteousness. 11 εἰ If δὲ but τὸ the πνεῦμα spirit τοῦ of the (one) ἐγείραντος having raised up τὸν the Ἰησοῦν Jesus ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) οἰκεῖ is dwelling ἐν in ὑμῖν, YOU, ὁ the (one) ἐγείρας having raised up ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) Χριστὸν Christ Ἰησοῦν Jesus ζωοποιήσει will make alive καὶ also τὰ the θνητὰ mortal σώματα bodies ὑμῶν of YOU διὰ through τοῦ the ἐνοικοῦντος indwelling αὐτοῦ of him πνεύματος spirit ἐν in ὑμῖν. YOU.

12 Ἄρα Really οὖν, therefore, ἀδελφοί, brothers, ὀφειλέται debtors ἐσμέν, we are, οὐ not τῇ to the σαρκὶ flesh τοῦ of the κατὰ according to σάρκα flesh ζῇν, to be living, 13 εἰ if γὰρ for κατὰ according to σάρκα flesh ζῆτε YOU are living μέλλετε YOU are about ἀποθνήσκειν, to be dying, εἰ if δὲ but πνεύματι to spirit τὰς the πράξεις acts τοῦ of the σώματος body θανατοῦτε YOU are putting to death ζήσεσθε. YOU will live. 14 ὅσοι As many as γὰρ for πνεύματι to spirit θεοῦ of God ἄγονται, are being led, οὗτοι these υἱοὶ sons θεοῦ of God εἰσίν. they are. 15 οὐ Not γὰρ for ἐλάβετε YOU received πνεῦμα spirit δουλείας of slavery πάλιν again εἰς into φόβον, fear, ἀλλὰ but ἐλάβετε YOU received πνεῦμα spirit υἱοθεσίας, of placing as son, ἐν in ᾧ which κράζομεν we are crying out ᾿Αββά Abba ὁ the πατήρ· Father; 16 αὐτὸ very τὸ the πνεῦμα spirit συνμαρτυρεῖ bears witness with τῷ the πνεύματι spirit ἡμῶν of us ὅτι that ἐσμὲν we are τέκνα children θεοῦ. of God. 17 εἰ If δὲ but τέκνα, children, καὶ also κληρονόμοι· heirs; κληρονόμοι heirs μὲν indeed θεοῦ, of God, συνκληρονόμοι joint heirs δὲ but Χριστοῦ, of Christ, εἴπερ if even συνπάσχομεν we are suffering together ἵνα in order that καὶ also συνδοξασθῶμεν. we should be glorified together.

18 Λογίζομαι I am reckoning γὰρ for ὅτι that οὐκ not ἄξια worthy τὰ the παθήματα sufferings τοῦ of the νῦν now καιροῦ appointed time πρὸς toward τὴν the μέλλουσαν being about δόξαν glory ἀποκαλυφθῆναι to be revealed εἰς into ἡμᾶς. us. 19 ἡ The γὰρ for ἀποκαραδοκία eager expectation τῆς of the κτίσεως creation τὴν the ἀποκάλυψιν revelation τῶν of the υἱῶν sons τοῦ of the θεοῦ God ἀπεκδέχεται· is awaiting; 20 τῇ to the γὰρ for ματαιότητι vanity ἡ the κτίσις creation ὑπετάγη, was subjected, οὐχ not ἑκοῦσα voluntary ἀλλὰ but διὰ through τὸν the (one) ὑποτάξαντα, having subjected, ἐφ’ upon ἐλπίδι hope 21 ὅτι that καὶ also αὐτὴ very ἡ the κτίσις creation ἐλευθερωθήσεται will be freed ἀπὸ from τῆς the δουλείας slavery τῆς of the φθορᾶς corruption εἰς into τὴν the ἐλευθερίαν freedom τῆς of the δόξης glory τῶν of the τέκνων children τοῦ of the θεοῦ. God. 22 οἴδαμεν We have known γὰρ for ὅτι that πᾶσα all ἡ the κτίσις creation συνστενάζει is groaning together καὶ and συνωδίνει is having travail pains together ἄχρι until τοῦ the νῦν· now; 23 οὐ not μόνον only δέ, but, ἀλλὰ but καὶ also αὐτοὶ very ones τὴν the ἀπαρχὴν firstfruits τοῦ of the πνεύματος spirit ἔχοντες having ἡμεῖς we καὶ also αὐτοὶ very ones ἐν in ἑαυτοῖς selves στενάζομεν, are groaning, υἱοθεσίαν placing as sons ἀπεκδεχόμενοι awaiting τὴν the ἀπολύτρωσιν release by ransom τοῦ of the σώματος body ἡμῶν. of us. 24 τῇ To the γὰρ for ἐλπίδι hope ἐσώθημεν· we were saved; ἐλπὶς hope δὲ but βλεπομένη being looked at οὐκ not ἔστιν is ἐλπίς, hope, ὃ which (thing) γὰρ for βλέπει is looking at τίς who ἐλπίζει; is hoping for? 25 εἰ If δὲ but ὃ which (thing) οὐ not βλέπομεν we are looking at ἐλπίζομεν, we are hoping for, δι’ through ὑπομονῆς endurance ἀπεκδεχόμεθα. we are awaiting.

26 Ὡσαύτως As-thus δὲ but καὶ also τὸ the πνεῦμα spirit συναντιλαμβάνεται is jointly helping τῇ to the ἀσθενείᾳ weakness ἡμῶν· of us; τὸ the γὰρ for τί what προσευξώμεθα we should pray καθὸ according to what δεῖ it is necessary οὐκ not οἴδαμεν, we have known, ἀλλὰ but αὐτὸ very τὸ the πνεῦμα spirit ὑπερεντυγχάνει is happening on in behalf στεναγμοῖς to groanings ἀλαλήτοις, unspoken, 27 ὁ the (one) δὲ but ἐραυνῶν searching τὰς the καρδίας hearts οἶδεν has known τί what τὸ the φρόνημα minding τοῦ of the πνεύματος, spirit, ὅτι that κατὰ according to θεὸν God ἐντυγχάνει is happening on ὑπὲρ over ἁγίων. holy (ones).

28 οἴδαμεν We have known δὲ but ὅτι that τοῖς to the (ones) ἀγαπῶσι loving τὸν the θεὸν God πάντα all (things) συνεργεῖ is working together ὁ the θεὸς God εἰς into ἀγαθόν, good, τοῖς to the (ones) κατὰ according to πρόθεσιν purpose κλητοῖς called (ones) οὖσιν. being. 29 ὅτι Because οὓς which ones προέγνω, he foreknew, καὶ also προώρισεν he defined beforehand συμμόρφους conformed to τῆς the εἰκόνος image τοῦ of the υἱοῦ Son αὐτοῦ, of him, εἰς into τὸ the εἶναι to be αὐτὸν him πρωτότοκον firstborn ἐν in πολλοῖς many ἀδελφοῖς· brothers; 30 οὓς which ones δὲ but προώρισεν, he defined beforehand, τούτους these καὶ also ἐκάλεσεν· he called; καὶ and οὓς which ones ἐκάλεσεν, he called, τούτους these καὶ also ἐδικαίωσεν· he justified; οὓς which ones δὲ but ἐδικαίωσεν, he justified, τούτους these καὶ and ἐδόξασεν. he glorified.

31 Τί What οὖν therefore ἐροῦμεν will we say πρὸς toward ταῦτα; these (things)? εἰ If ὁ the θεὸς God ὑπὲρ over ἡμῶν, us, τίς who καθ’ down on ἡμῶν; us? 32 ὅς Who γε in fact τοῦ of the ἰδίου own υἱοῦ Son οὐκ not ἐφείσατο, he spared, ἀλλὰ but ὑπὲρ over ἡμῶν us πάντων all παρέδωκεν he gave beside αὐτόν, him, πῶς how οὐχὶ not καὶ also σὺν together with αὐτῷ him τὰ the πάντα all (things) ἡμῖν to us χαρίσεται; will he graciously give? 33 τίς Who ἐγκαλέσει will bring accusation κατὰ down on ἐκλεκτῶν chosen (ones) θεοῦ; of God? θεὸς God ὁ the (one) δικαιῶν· justifying; 34 τίς who ὁ the (one) κατακρινῶν; judging down? Χριστὸς Christ Ἰησοῦς Jesus ὁ the (one) ἀποθανών, having died, μᾶλλον rather δὲ but ἐγερθεὶς having been raised up ἐκ out of νεκρῶν, dead (ones), ὅς who ἐστιν is ἐν in δεξιᾷ right [hand] τοῦ of the θεοῦ, God, ὃς who καὶ also ἐντυγχάνει is happening on ὑπὲρ over ἡμῶν· us;

35 τίς Who ἡμᾶς us χωρίσει will separate ἀπὸ from τῆς the ἀγάπης love τοῦ of the χριστοῦ; Christ? θλίψις Tribulation ἢ or στενοχωρία distress ἢ or διωγμὸς persecution ἢ or λιμὸς famine ἢ or γυμνότης nakedness ἢ or κίνδυνος danger ἢ or μάχαιρα; sword? 36 καθὼς According as γέγραπται it has been written ὅτι that Ἕνεκεν On account σοῦ of you θανατούμεθα we are being put to death ὅλην whole τὴν the ἡμέραν, day, ἐλογίσθημεν we were reckoned ὡς as πρόβατα sheep σφαγῆς. of slaughter. 37 ἀλλ’ But ἐν in τούτοις these (things) πᾶσιν all ὑπερνικῶμεν we are gaining victory over διὰ through τοῦ the (one) ἀγαπήσαντος having loved ἡμᾶς. us. 38 πέπεισμαι I have been persuaded γὰρ for ὅτι that οὔτε neither θάνατος death οὔτε nor ζωὴ life οὔτε nor ἄγγελοι angels οὔτε nor ἀρχαὶ rulerships οὔτε nor ἐνεστῶτα (things) having stood in οὔτε nor μέλλοντα (things) being about to οὔτε nor δυνάμεις powers 39 οὔτε nor ὕψωμα height οὔτε nor βάθος depth οὔτε nor τις any κτίσις creation ἑτέρα different δυνήσεται will be able ἡμᾶς us χωρίσαι to separate ἀπὸ from τῆς the ἀγάπης love τοῦ of the θεοῦ God τῆς the (which) ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus τῷ the κυρίῳ Lord ἡμῶν. of us.

9 ᾿Αλήθειαν Truth λέγω I am saying ἐν in Χριστῷ, Christ, οὐ not ψεύδομαι, I am lying, συνμαρτυρούσης bearing witness with μοι me τῆς of the συνειδήσεώς conscience μου of me ἐν in πνεύματι spirit ἁγίῳ, holy, 2 ὅτι that λύπη grief μοί to me ἐστιν is μεγάλη great καὶ and ἀδιάλειπτος unceasing ὀδύνη pain τῇ to the καρδίᾳ heart μου· of me; 3 ηὐχόμην I was longing for γὰρ for ἀνάθεμα anathema εἶναι to be αὐτὸς very ἐγὼ I ἀπὸ from τοῦ the χριστοῦ Christ ὑπὲρ over τῶν the ἀδελφῶν brothers μου of me τῶν the συγγενῶν relatives μου of me κατὰ according to σάρκα, flesh, 4 οἵτινές who εἰσιν are Ἰσραηλεῖται, Israelites, ὧν of whom ἡ the υἱοθεσία placing as son καὶ and ἡ the δόξα glory καὶ and αἱ the διαθῆκαι covenants καὶ and ἡ the νομοθεσία placing of law καὶ and ἡ the λατρεία sacred service καὶ and αἱ the ἐπαγγελίαι, promises, 5 ὧν of whom οἱ the πατέρες, fathers, καὶ and ἐξ out of ὧν whom ὁ the χριστὸς Christ τὸ the (thing) κατὰ according to σάρκα, flesh, ὁ the (one) ὢν being ἐπὶ upon πάντων, all (things), θεὸς God εὐλογητὸς blessed (one) εἰς into τοὺς the αἰῶνας· ages; ἀμήν. amen.

6 Οὐχ Not οἷον (thing) of what sort δὲ but ὅτι that ἐκπέπτωκεν has fallen out ὁ the λόγος word τοῦ of the θεοῦ. God. οὐ Not γὰρ for πάντες all οἱ the (ones) ἐξ out of Ἰσραήλ, Israel, οὗτοι these (ones) Ἰσραήλ· Israel; 7 οὐδ’ neither ὅτι because εἰσὶν they are σπέρμα seed ᾿Αβραάμ, of Abraham, πάντες all τέκνα, children, ἀλλ’ but ᾿Εν In Ἰσαὰκ Isaac κληθήσεταί will be called σοι to you σπέρμα. seed. 8 τοῦτ’ This ἔστιν, is, οὐ not τὰ the τέκνα children τῆς of the σαρκὸς flesh ταῦτα these τέκνα children τοῦ of the θεοῦ, God, ἀλλὰ but τὰ the τέκνα children τῆς of the ἐπαγγελίας of promise λογίζεται it is being reckoned εἰς into σπέρμα· seed; 9 ἐπαγγελίας of promise γὰρ for ὁ the λόγος word οὗτος this Κατὰ According to τὸν the καιρὸν appointed time τοῦτον this ἐλεύσομαι I shall come καὶ and ἔσται will be τῇ to the Σάρρᾳ Sarah υἱός. son. 10 οὐ Not μόνον only δέ, but, ἀλλὰ but καὶ also Ῥεβέκκα Rebekah ἐξ out of ἑνὸς one [man] κοίτην bed ἔχουσα, having, Ἰσαὰκ of Isaac τοῦ the πατρὸς father ἡμῶν· of us; 11 μήπω not as yet γὰρ for γεννηθέντων of (ones) having been generated μηδὲ not-but πραξάντων having performed τι anything ἀγαθὸν good ἢ or φαῦλον, vile, ἵνα in order that ἡ the κατ’ according to ἐκλογὴν choosing πρόθεσις purpose τοῦ of the θεοῦ God μένῃ, may be remaining, οὐκ not ἐξ out of ἔργων works ἀλλ’ but ἐκ out of τοῦ the (one) καλοῦντος, calling, 12 ἐρρέθη it was said αὐτῇ to her ὅτι that Ὁ The μείζων greater δουλεύσει will be slave τῷ to the ἐλάσσονι· lesser; 13 καθάπερ according to what (things) even γέγραπται it has been written Τὸν The Ἰακὼβ Jacob ἠγάπησα, I loved, τὸν the δὲ but Ἠσαῦ Esau ἐμίσησα. I hated.

14 Τί What οὖν therefore ἐροῦμεν; shall we say? μὴ Not ἀδικία injustice παρὰ beside τῷ the θεῷ; God? μὴ Not γένοιτο· may it occur; 15 τῷ to the Μωυσεῖ Moses γὰρ for λέγει he is saying ᾿Ελεήσω I shall have mercy on ὃν whom ἂν likely ἐλεῶ, I may be having mercy, καὶ and οἰκτειρήσω I shall show compassion on ὃν whom ἂν likely οἰκτείρω. I may be showing compassion. 16 ἄρα Really οὖν therefore οὐ not τοῦ of the (one) θέλοντος willing οὐδὲ nor τοῦ of the (one) τρέχοντος, running, ἀλλὰ but τοῦ of the (one) ἐλεῶντος having mercy θεοῦ. of God. 17 λέγει Is saying γὰρ for ἡ the γραφὴ Scripture τῷ to the Φαραὼ Pharaoh ὅτι that Εἰς Into αὐτὸ very τοῦτο this ἐξήγειρά I raised up out σε you ὅπως so that ἐνδείξωμαι I should show within ἐν in σοὶ you τὴν the δύναμίν power μου, of me, καὶ and ὅπως so that διαγγελῇ should be announced τὸ the ὄνομά name μου of me ἐν in πάσῃ all τῇ the γῇ. earth. 18 ἄρα Really οὖν therefore ὃν whom θέλει he is willing ἐλεεῖ, he is showing mercy on, ὃν whom δὲ but θέλει he is willing σκληρύνει. he is hardening.

19 ᾿Ερεῖς You will say μοι to me οὖν therefore Τί Why ἔτι yet μέμφεται; is he laying blame? τῷ To the γὰρ for βουλήματι expressed will αὐτοῦ of him τίς who ἀνθέστηκεν; has withstood? 20 ὦ O ἄνθρωπε, man, μενοῦνγε indeed-therefore-in fact σὺ you τίς who εἶ are ὁ the (one) ἀνταποκρινόμενος answering back τῷ to the θεῷ; God? μὴ Not ἐρεῖ will say τὸ the πλάσμα thing molded τῷ to the (one) πλάσαντι, having molded, Τί Why με me ἐποίησας you made οὕτως; thus? 21 ἢ Or οὐκ not ἔχει is having ἐξουσίαν authority ὁ the κεραμεὺς potter τοῦ of the πηλοῦ clay ἐκ out of τοῦ the αὐτοῦ very φυράματος lump ποιῆσαι to make ὃ which (one) μὲν indeed εἰς into τιμὴν honor σκεῦος, vessel, ὃ which (one) δὲ but εἰς into ἀτιμίαν; dishonor? 22 εἰ If δὲ but θέλων willing ὁ the θεὸς God ἐνδείξασθαι to show within τὴν the ὀργὴν wrath καὶ and γνωρίσαι to make known τὸ the δυνατὸν powerful (ness) αὐτοῦ of him ἤνεγκεν bore ἐν in πολλῇ much μακροθυμίᾳ longness of spirit σκεύη vessels ὀργῆς of wrath κατηρτισμένα having been adjusted down εἰς into ἀπώλειαν, destruction, 23 ἵνα in order that γνωρίσῃ he might make known τὸν the πλοῦτον riches τῆς of the δόξης glory αὐτοῦ of him ἐπὶ upon σκεύη vessels ἐλέους, of mercy, ἃ which (ones) προητοίμασεν he prepared beforehand εἰς into δόξαν, glory, 24 οὓς whom καὶ also ἐκάλεσεν he called ἡμᾶς us οὐ not μόνον only ἐξ out of Ἰουδαίων Jews ἀλλὰ but καὶ also ἐξ out of ἐθνῶν—; nations—? 25 ὡς As καὶ also ἐν in τῷ the Ὡσηὲ Hosea λέγει he is saying Καλέσω I shall call τὸν the οὐ not λαόν people μου of me λαόν people μου of me καὶ and τὴν the [woman] οὐκ not ἠγαπημένην having been loved ἠγαπημένην· (one) having been loved; 26 καὶ and ἔσται it will be ἐν in τῷ the τόπῳ place οὗ where ἐρρέθη it was said αὐτοῖς to them Οὐ Not λαός people μου of me ὑμεῖς, YOU, ἐκεῖ there κληθήσονται they will be called υἱοὶ sons θεοῦ of God ζῶντος. living.

27 Ἠσαίας Isaiah δὲ but κράζει is crying out ὑπὲρ over τοῦ the Ἰσραήλ Israel ᾿Εὰν If ever ᾖ may be ὁ the ἀριθμὸς number τῶν of the υἱῶν sons Ἰσραὴλ of Israel ὡς as ἡ the ἄμμος sand τῆς of the θαλάσσης, sea, τὸ the ὑπόλιμμα thing left behind σωθήσεται· will be saved; 28 λόγον word γὰρ for συντελῶν concluding καὶ and συντέμνων cutting short ποιήσει will make Κύριος Lord ἐπὶ upon τῆς the γῆς. earth. 29 καὶ And καθὼς according as προείρηκεν had said beforehand Ἠσαίας Isaiah Εἰ If μὴ not Κύριος Lord Σαβαὼθ Sabaoth ἐγκατέλιπεν left within ἡμῖν to us σπέρμα, seed, ὡς as Σόδομα Sodom ἂν likely ἐγενήθημεν we became καὶ and ὡς as Γόμορρα Gomorrah ἂν likely ὡμοιώθημεν. we were likened.

30 Τί What οὖν therefore ἐροῦμεν; shall we say? ὅτι That ἔθνη nations τὰ the (ones) μὴ not διώκοντα pursuing δικαιοσύνην righteousness κατέλαβεν took down on δικαιοσύνην, righteousness, δικαιοσύνην righteousness δὲ but τὴν the (one) ἐκ out of πίστεως· faith; 31 Ἰσραὴλ Israel δὲ but διώκων pursuing νόμον law δικαιοσύνης of righteousness εἰς into νόμον law οὐκ not ἔφθασεν. arrived at. 32 διὰ Through τί; what? ὅτι Because οὐκ not ἐκ out of πίστεως faith ἀλλ’ but ὡς as ἐξ out of ἔργων· works; προσέκοψαν they struck toward τῷ the λίθῳ stone τοῦ of the προσκόμματος, striking toward, 33 καθὼς according as γέγραπται it has been written Ἰδοὺ Look! τίθημι I am placing ἐν in Σιὼν Zion λίθον stone προσκόμματος of striking toward καὶ and πέτραν rock-mass σκανδάλου, of fall-causer, καὶ and ὁ the (one) πιστεύων believing ἐπ’ upon αὐτῷ him οὐ not καταισχυνθήσεται. will be made ashamed.

10 ᾿Αδελφοί, Brothers, ἡ the μὲν indeed εὐδοκία well thinking τῆς of the ἐμῆς my καρδίας heart καὶ and ἡ the δέησις supplication πρὸς toward τὸν the θεὸν God ὑπὲρ over αὐτῶν them εἰς into σωτηρίαν. salvation. 2 μαρτυρῶ I am bearing witness γὰρ for αὐτοῖς to them ὅτι that ζῆλον zeal θεοῦ of God ἔχουσιν· they are having; ἀλλ’ but οὐ not κατ’ according to ἐπίγνωσιν, accurate knowledge, 3 ἀγνοοῦντες being ignorant of γὰρ for τὴν the τοῦ of the θεοῦ God δικαιοσύνην, righteousness, καὶ and τὴν the ἰδίαν own ζητοῦντες seeking στῆσαι, to make stand, τῇ to the δικαιοσύνῃ righteousness τοῦ of the θεοῦ God οὐχ not ὑπετάγησαν· they were subjected; 4 τέλος end γὰρ for νόμου of Law Χριστὸς Christ εἰς into δικαιοσύνην righteousness παντὶ to every τῷ the (one) πιστεύοντι. believing.

5 Μωυσῆς Moses γὰρ for γράφει is writing ὅτι that τὴν the δικαιοσύνην righteousness τὴν the (one) ἐκ out of νόμου Law Ὁ The ποιήσας having done ἄνθρωπος man ζήσεται will live ἐν in αὐτῇ. it. 6 ἡ The δὲ but ἐκ out of πίστεως faith δικαιοσύνη righteousness οὕτως thus λέγει is saying Μὴ Not εἴπῃς you should say ἐν in τῇ the καρδίᾳ heart σου of you Τίς Who ἀναβήσεται will ascend εἰς into τὸν the οὐρανόν; heaven? τοῦτ’ this ἔστιν is Χριστὸν Christ καταγαγεῖν· to lead down; 7 ἤ or Τίς Who καταβήσεται will descend εἰς into τὴν the ἄβυσσον; abyss? τοῦτ’ this ἔστιν is Χριστὸν Christ ἐκ out of νεκρῶν dead (ones) ἀναγαγεῖν. to lead up. 8 ἀλλὰ But τί what λέγει; is it saying? ᾿Εγγύς Near σου you τὸ the ῥῆμά saying ἐστιν, is, ἐν in τῷ the στόματί mouth σου of you καὶ and ἐν in τῇ the καρδίᾳ heart σου· of you; τοῦτ’ this ἔστιν is τὸ the ῥῆμα saying τῆς of the πίστεως faith ὃ which κηρύσσομεν. we are preaching. 9 ὅτι That ἐὰν if ever ὁμολογήσῃς you should confess τὸ the ῥῆμα saying ἐν in τῷ the στόματί mouth σου of you ὅτι that Κύριος Lord Ἰησοῦς, Jesus, καὶ and πιστεύσῃς you should believe ἐν in τῇ the καρδίᾳ heart σου of you ὅτι that ὁ the θεὸς God αὐτὸν him ἤγειρεν raised up ἐκ out of νεκρῶν, dead (ones), σωθήσῃ· you will be saved; 10 καρδίᾳ to heart γὰρ for πιστεύεται it is being believed εἰς into δικαιοσύνην, righteousness, στόματι to mouth δὲ but ὁμολογεῖται it is being confessed εἰς into σωτηρίαν· salvation;

11 λέγει Is saying γὰρ for ἡ the γραφή Scripture Πᾶς Every ὁ the (one) πιστεύων believing ἐπ’ upon αὐτῷ him οὐ not καταισχυνθήσεται. will be made ashamed. 12 οὐ Not γάρ for ἐστιν is διαστολὴ distinction Ἰουδαίου of Jew τε and καὶ and Ἕλληνος, of Greek, ὁ the γὰρ for αὐτὸς very κύριος Lord πάντων, of all (ones), πλουτῶν being rich εἰς into πάντας all τοὺς the (ones) ἐπικαλουμένους calling upon αὐτόν· him; 13 Πᾶς everyone γὰρ for ὃς who ἂν likely ἐπικαλέσηται might call upon τὸ the ὄνομα name Κυρίου of Lord σωθήσεται. will be saved. 14 Πῶς How οὖν therefore ἐπικαλέσωνται should they call upon εἰς into ὃν whom οὐκ not ἐπίστευσαν; they believed? πῶς How δὲ but πιστεύσωσιν should they believe οὗ of whom οὐκ not ἤκουσαν; they heard? πῶς How δὲ but ἀκούσωσιν should they hear χωρὶς apart from κηρύσσοντος; (one) preaching? 15 πῶς How δὲ but κηρύξωσιν should they preach ἐὰν if ever μὴ not ἀποσταλῶσιν; they should be sent? καθάπερ According to which (things) indeed γέγραπται it has been written Ὡς As ὡραῖοι beautiful οἱ the πόδες feet τῶν of the (ones) εὐαγγελιζομένων declaring as good news ἀγαθά. good things.
