Romans 1
1Paul the seruaut of Iesus Christ called to be an Apostle put a parte to preache the Gospell of God 2which he promysed afore by his Prophetes in the holy scriptures 3that make mension of his sonne the which was begotte of the seed of David as pertayninge to the flesshe: 4and declared to be the sonne of God with power of the holy goost that sanctifieth sence ye tyme that Iesus Christ oure Lorde rose agayne from deeth 5by whom we have receaved grace and apostleshyppe to bringe all maner hethe people vnto obedience of the fayth that is in his name: 6of the which hethen are ye a part also which are Iesus christes by vocacio. 7To all you of Rome beloved of God and saynctes by callinge. Grace be with you and peace from God oure father and from the Lorde Iesus Christ. 8Fyrst verely I thanke my God thorow Iesus Christ for you all because youre fayth is publisshed through out all the worlde. 9For God is my witnes whom I serve with my sprete in the Gospell of his sonne that with out ceasinge I make mencion of you alwayes in my prayers 10besechinge that at one tyme or another a prosperous iorney (by ye will of god) myght fortune me to come vnto you. 11For I longe to see you that I myght bestowe amoge you some spirituall gyfte to strength you with all: 12that is that I myght have consolacion together with you through the commen fayth which bothe ye and I have. 13I wolde that ye shuld knowe brethre how that I have often tymes purposed to come vnto you (but have bene let hitherto) to have some frute amonge you as I have amonge other of ye Gentyls. 14For I am detter both to the Grekes and to them which are no Grekes vnto the learned and also vnto the vnlearned. 15Lykewyse as moche as in me is I am redy to preache the Gospell to you of Rome also. 16For I am not ashamed of the Gospell of Christ because it is ye power of God vnto salvacio to all yt beleve namely to the Iewe and also to ye getyle. 17For by it ye rightewesnes which cometh of god is opened fro fayth to fayth. As it is written: The iust shall live by fayth. 18For the wrath of God apereth from heven agaynst all vngodlynes and vnrightewesnes of me which withholde ye trueth in vnrightewesnes 19seynge what maye be knowen of God that same is manifest amoge them. For God dyd shewe it vnto them. 20So that his invisible thinges: that is to saye his eternall power and godhed are vnderstonde and sene by the workes from the creacion of the worlde. So that they are without excuse 21in as moche as when they knewe god they glorified him not as God nether were thakfull but wexed full of vanities in their imaginacions and their folisshe hertes were blynded. 23When they couted them selves wyse they became foles and turned the glory of the immortall god vnto the similitude of the ymage of mortall man and of byrdes and foure foted beastes and of serpentes. 24Wherfore god lykewyse gave the vp vnto their hertes lustes vnto vnclennes to defyle their awne boddyes bitwene them selves: 25which tourned his truthe vnto a lye and worshipped and served the creatures more then ye maker which is blessed for ever. Ame. 26For this cause god gave them vp vnto shamfull lustes. For even their wemen did chaunge the naturall vse vnto the vnnaturall. 27And lyke wyse also the men lefte the naturall vse of the woma and bret in their lustes one on another. And man with man wrought filthynes and receaved in them selves the rewarde of their erroure as it was accordinge. 28And as it semed not good vnto them to be aknowen of God even so God delivered them vp vnto a leawde mynd yt they shuld do tho thinges which were not comly 29beinge full of all vnrighteous doinge of fornicacio wickednes coveteousnes maliciousnes full of envie morther debate disseyte evill codicioned whisperers 30backbyters haters of God doers of wroge proude bosters bringers vp of evyll thinges disobedient to father and mother 31with out vnderstondinge covenaunte breakers vnlovinge trucebreakers and merciles. 32Which me though they knew the rightewesnes of God how that they which soche thinges commyt are worthy of deeth yet not only do the same but also have pleasure in them that do them.
