      Paul’s Letter to the Romans

1 - (From) Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the message of God, 2 which he promised long ago through his prophets, in the holy scriptures, 3 namely his Son {the message, the promise}. He was descended from David according to the earthly (as written) 4 and was declared - in power - to be the Son of God. For it was demonstrated through the Spirit of holiness, by his resurrection from the dead. 5 It is through him, Jesus Christ, our Lord, that we have received grace and this apostleship [apostolé - to be sent] . And this in order to bring about faith and the fruit of obedience to it, for the sake of his name, and his cause among all nations. 6 This includes all of you, who are called [klétos - called, invited] to belong to Jesus Christ. {During this brief lifetime.}

     7 To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints (believers) - Grace to you! And peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
