1. Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2. which he promised afore through his prophets in the holy scriptures,
3. concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh,
4. who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead;
5. through whom we received grace and apostleship, unto obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name’s sake;
6. among whom are ye also called to be Jesus Christ’s:
7. To all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
