thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.

doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.

blaspheme. In my
raging fury against them, I
even went to foreign cities to
persecute them.

harm of thee.

planned to come to you (but have been prevented from visiting until now), in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
For I am not
ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made,
even his eternal power and
Godhead; so that they are without
excuse:

workmanship, so that men are without
excuse.
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the
Creator, who is blessed for
ever.

Creator, who is
forever worthy of praise!
Amen.
For this cause God gave them up unto
vile affections: for
even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
And
even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a
reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a
depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.

For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:

Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
Much in every way. First of all, they have been entrusted with the very words of God.
God
forbid:
yea, let God be true, but
every man a
liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Certainly not! Let God be true and
every man a
liar. As it is written: “So that You may be proved right when You speak and victorious when You judge.”
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.”
Now we know that what things
soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that
every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
And this righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no distinction,
Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
And David speaks likewise of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.” He is our father in the presence of God, in whom he believed, the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being what does not yet exist.
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet
peradventure for a good man some would
even dare to die.
Very rarely will
anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly
dare to die.
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses,
even over them that had not
sinned after the
similitude of Adam’s
transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam until Moses,
even over those who did not sin in the way that Adam
transgressed. He is a pattern of the One to come.
Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to
condemnation;
even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto
justification of life.
That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

I speak after the manner of men because of the
infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity;
even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto
holiness.
I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to escalating wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to
holiness.
But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto
holiness, and the end
everlasting life.
But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the fruit you
reap leads to
holiness, and the outcome is eternal life.
So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an
adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no
adulteress, though she be married to another man.
So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an
adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an
adulteress,
even if she marries another man.
Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.
But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of
concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me
every kind of
covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit,
even we ourselves
groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the
redemption of our body.
Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit,
groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the
redemption of our bodies.
Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died,
yea rather, that is risen again, who is
even at the right hand of God, who also maketh
intercession for us.
Who is there to
condemn us? For Christ Jesus, who died, and more than that was raised to life, is at the right hand of God—and He is
interceding for us.
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for
ever.
Amen.
Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all,
forever worthy of praise!
Amen.

Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac.
For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh,
Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might
shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”
Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
including us, whom He has called not only from the Jews, but also from the Gentiles?
