- First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout the whole world.
- For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the preaching of the gospel of His Son, is my witness as to how unceasingly I make mention of you,
- always in my prayers making request, if perhaps now at last by the will of God I may succeed in coming to you.
- For I long to see you so that I may impart some spiritual gift to you, that you may be established;
- that is, that I may be encouraged together with you while among you, each of us by the other's faith, both yours and mine.

- I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that often I have planned to come to you (and have been prevented so far) so that I may obtain some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.
- I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.
- So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
- For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
- For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."
