{\MT The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans

\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Paul, bondman
of
Jesus
Christ, [a]
called
apostle,
separated
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:1 }
Elohim}God's glad tidings,
\VS{2}(which
he
had
before
promised
by
his
prophets
in
holy writings,)
\VS{3}concerning
his
Son (come
of David's
seed
according
to
flesh,
\VS{4}marked
out
Son
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:4 }
Elohim}God
in
power,
according
to [the]
Spirit
of
holiness,
by
resurrection
of [the]
dead)
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord;
\VS{5}by
whom
we
have
received
grace
and
apostleship
in
behalf
of
his
name,
for
obedience
of
faith
among
all
the
nations,
\VS{6}among
whom
are
{\BD{ye}}
also [the]
called
of
Jesus
Christ:
\VS{7}to
all
that
are
in
Rome,
beloved
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:7 }
Elohim}God,
called
saints:
Grace
to
you
and
peace
from
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:7 }
Elohim}God
our
Father
and [our]
Lord
Jesus
Christ.
\VS{8}First,
I
thank
my
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:8 }
Elohim}God
through
Jesus
Christ
for
you
all,
that
your
faith
is
proclaimed
in
the
whole
world.
\VS{9}For
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:9 }
Elohim}God
is
my
witness,
whom
I
serve
in
my
spirit
in
the glad tidings
of
his
Son,
how
unceasingly
I
make
mention
of
you,
\VS{10}always beseeching
at
my
prayers,
if
any
way
now
at least
I
may
be prospered
by
the
will
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:10 }
Elohim}God
to
come
to
you.
\VS{11}For
I greatly desire
to
see
you,
that
I
may
impart
to
you
some
spiritual
gift
to
establish
you;
\VS{12}that
is,
to
have mutual comfort
among
you,
each
by
the
faith [which
is]
in
the
other,
both
yours
and
mine.
\VS{13}But
I
do
not
wish
you
to
be
ignorant,
brethren,
that
I
often proposed
to
come
to
you, (and
have
been
hindered
until
the present
time,)
that
I
might
have
some
fruit
among
you
too,
even
as
among
the
other
nations
also.
\VS{14}I
am
a debtor
both
to
Greeks
and
barbarians,
both
to
wise
and unintelligent:
\VS{15}so,
as
far
as depends
on
me,
am
I ready
to announce
the glad tidings
to
you
also
who [are]
in
Rome.
\VS{16}For
I
am
not
ashamed
of
the glad tidings;
for
it
is
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:16 }
Elohim}God's
power
to
salvation,
to
every
one
that
believes,
both
to
Jew
first
and
to
Greek:
\VS{17}for
righteousness
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:17 }
Elohim}God
is
revealed therein,
on
the principle
of
faith,
to
faith: according
as
it
is
written,
But
the
just
shall
live
by
faith.
\VS{18}For
there
is
revealed
wrath
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:18 }
Elohim}God
from
heaven
upon
all impiety,
and
unrighteousness
of
men holding
the
truth
in
unrighteousness.
\VS{19}Because
what
is
known
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:19 }
Elohim}God
is
manifest
among
them,
for
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:19 }
Elohim}God
has
manifested [it]
to
them,
\VS{20}—
for
from [the] world's
creation
the
invisible
things
of
him
are perceived,
being apprehended
by
the
mind
through
the
things
that
are
made,
both
his
eternal
power
and divinity, —
so
as
to render
them inexcusable.
\VS{21}Because,
knowing
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:21 }
Elohim}God,
they
glorified [him]
not
as
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:21 }
Elohim}God,
neither
were thankful;
but fell
into folly
in
their
thoughts,
and
their
heart
without
understanding
was
darkened:
\VS{22}professing
themselves
to
be
wise,
they
became
fools,
\VS{23}and
changed
the
glory
of
the incorruptible
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:23 }
Elohim}God
into [the]
likeness
of
an
image
of
corruptible
man
and
of
birds
and quadrupeds
and
reptiles.
\VS{24}Wherefore
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:24 }
Elohim}God
gave
them
up [also]
in
the
lusts
of
their
hearts
to
uncleanness,
to dishonour
their
bodies
between
themselves:
\VS{25}who changed
the
truth
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:25 }
Elohim}God
into
falsehood,
and honoured
and
served
the
creature more
than
him
who
had
created [it],
who
is
blessed
for
ever.
Amen.
\VS{26}For
this
reason
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:26 }
Elohim}God
gave
them
up
to vile lusts;
for
both
their females changed
the
natural
use
into
that
contrary
to
nature;
\VS{27}and
in
like
manner
the males
also,
leaving
the
natural use
of
the
female,
were inflamed
in
their lust towards
one
another; males
with males working
shame,
and
receiving
in
themselves
the recompense
of
their
error
which
was fit.
\VS{28}And according
as
they
did
not think good
to
have
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:28 }
Elohim}God
in [their]
knowledge,
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:28 }
Elohim}God
gave
them
up
to
a reprobate
mind
to practise unseemly
things;
\VS{29}being
filled
with
all
unrighteousness,
wickedness,
covetousness,
malice;
full
of
envy,
murder,
strife,
deceit,
evil dispositions; whisperers,
\VS{30}back-biters, hateful
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:30 }
Elohim}God,
insolent, proud, boasters,
inventors
of
evil
things,
disobedient
to
parents,
\VS{31}void of
understanding, faithless,
without natural affection, unmerciful;
\VS{32}who knowing
the
righteous judgment
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:32 }
Elohim}God,
that
they
who
do
such
things
are
worthy
of
death,
not
only practise
them,
but
have
fellow delight
in
those
who
do [them].

\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Therefore thou art inexcusable,
O
man,
every
one
who judgest,
for
in
that
in
which thou judgest
another, thou condemnest thyself;
for thou
that judgest doest
the
same
things.
\VS{2}But
we
know
that
the
judgment
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:2 }
Elohim}God
is
according
to
truth
upon
those
who
do
such
things.
\VS{3}And thinkest thou
this,
O
man,
who judgest
those
that
do
such
things,
and practisest
them [thyself],
that
{\BD{thou}} shalt
escape
the
judgment
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:3 }
Elohim}God?
\VS{4}or despisest thou
the
riches
of
his goodness,
and
forbearance,
and long-suffering,
not
knowing
that
the goodness
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:4 }
Elohim}God
leads thee
to
repentance?
\VS{5}but,
according
to thy hardness
and impenitent
heart, treasurest
up
to thyself
wrath,
in [the]
day
of
wrath
and
revelation
of [the]
righteous
judgment
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:5 }
Elohim}God,
\VS{6}who shall
render
to
each
according
to
his
works:
\VS{7}to
them
who,
in
patient continuance
of
good
works,
seek
for
glory
and honour
and incorruptibility,
life
eternal.
\VS{8}But
to
those
that
are contentious,
and
are
disobedient
to
the
truth,
but
obey
unrighteousness, [there
shall
be]
wrath
and
indignation,
\VS{9}tribulation
and
distress,
on
every
soul
of
man
that works
evil,
both
of
Jew
first,
and
of
Greek;
\VS{10}but
glory
and honour
and
peace
to
every
one
that works
good,
both
to
Jew
first
and
to
Greek:
\VS{11}for
there
is
no acceptance
of persons
with
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:11 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{12}For
as
many
as
have
sinned
without
law
shall
perish
also
without
law;
and
as
many
as
have
sinned
under
law
shall
be
judged
by
law,
\VS{13}(for
not
the
hearers
of
the
law [are]
just
before
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:13 }
Elohim}God,
but
the
doers
of
the
law
shall
be
justified.
\VS{14}For
when [those
of
the]
nations,
which
have
no
law, practise
by
nature
the
things
of
the
law,
these,
having
no
law,
are
a
law
to
themselves;
\VS{15}who shew
the
work
of
the
law
written
in
their
hearts,
their
conscience
also
bearing
witness,
and
their
thoughts
accusing
or
else excusing
themselves
between
themselves;)
\VS{16}in [the]
day
when
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:16 }
Elohim}God
shall
judge
the
secrets
of
men,
according
to
my glad tidings,
by
Jesus
Christ.
\VS{17}But
if
{\BD{thou}} art named
a
Jew,
and restest
in
the
law,
and makest thy
boast
in
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:17 }
Elohim}God,
\VS{18}and knowest
the
will,
and discerningly approvest
the
things
that
are
more
excellent, being
instructed
out
of
the
law;
\VS{19}and hast
confidence
that thou thyself art
a leader
of
the
blind,
a
light
of
those
who [are]
in
darkness,
\VS{20}an instructor
of
the
foolish,
a
teacher
of babes,
having
the
form
of
knowledge
and
of
truth
in
the
law:
\VS{21}thou
then
that teachest
another, dost thou
not
teach thyself? thou
that preachest
not
to
steal, dost thou
steal?
\VS{22}thou
that sayest [man should]
not
commit
adultery, dost thou
commit
adultery? thou
that abhorrest
idols, dost thou
commit sacrilege?
\VS{23}thou
who boastest
in
law, dost thou
by
transgression
of
the
law dishonour
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:23 }
Elohim}God?
\VS{24}For
the
name
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:24 }
Elohim}God
is
blasphemed
on
your
account
among
the
nations, according
as
it
is
written.
\VS{25}For
circumcision
indeed
profits
if thou keep [the]
law;
but
if thou
be
a law-transgressor, thy
circumcision
is
become
uncircumcision.
\VS{26}If
therefore
the
uncircumcision
keep
the
requirements
of
the
law, shall
not
his
uncircumcision
be
reckoned
for
circumcision,
\VS{27}and
uncircumcision
by
nature,
fulfilling
the
law,
judge thee,
who,
with
letter
and
circumcision, [art]
a law-transgressor?
\VS{28}For
he
is
not
a
Jew
who [is]
one outwardly,
neither
that
circumcision
which
is
outward
in
flesh;
\VS{29}but
he [is]
a
Jew [who
is
so]
inwardly;
and
circumcision,
of
the
heart,
in
spirit,
not
in
letter;
whose
praise [is]
not
of
men,
but
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:29 }
Elohim}God.

\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}What
then [is]
the superiority
of
the
Jew?
or
what
the profit
of
circumcision?
\VS{2}Much
every
way:
and
first,
indeed,
that
to
them
were
entrusted
the
oracles
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:2 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{3}For
what?
if
some
have
not believed,
shall
their
unbelief
make
the
faith
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:3 }
Elohim}God
of
none effect?
\VS{4}Far
be
the thought:
but
let
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:4 }
Elohim}God
be
true,
and
every
man false; according
as
it
is
written,
So
that thou shouldest
be
justified
in thy
words,
and shouldest
overcome
when thou art
in
judgment.
\VS{5}But
if
our
unrighteousness
commend
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:5 }
Elohim}God's
righteousness,
what
shall
we
say?
Is
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:5 }
Elohim}God
unrighteous
who
inflicts
wrath?
I
speak
according
to
man.
\VS{6}Far
be
the thought:
since
how
shall
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:6 }
Elohim}God
judge
the
world?
\VS{7}For
if
the
truth
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:7 }
Elohim}God,
in
my
lie,
has
more
abounded
to
his
glory,
why
yet
am
{\BD{
I}}
also
judged
as
a
sinner?
\VS{8}and
not, according
as
we
are injuriously charged,
and according
as
some affirm
that
we
say,
Let
us practise
evil
things,
that
good
ones
may
come?
whose
judgment
is
just.
\VS{9}What
then?
are
we
better?
No,
in
no wise:
for
we
have before
charged
both
Jews
and
Greeks
with
being
all
under
sin:
\VS{10}according
as
it
is
written,
There
is
not
a
righteous [man],
not
even
one;
\VS{11}there
is
not
the [man]
that
understands,
there
is
not
one
that seeks after
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:11 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{12}All
have gone
out
of
the
way,
they
have
together
become unprofitable;
there
is
not
one
that practises goodness,
there
is
not so much
as
one:
\VS{13}their
throat
is an
open sepulchre;
with
their
tongues
they
have used deceit; asps'
poison [is]
under
their
lips:
\VS{14}whose
mouth
is
full
of
cursing
and
bitterness;
\VS{15}swift
their
feet
to
shed
blood;
\VS{16}ruin
and
misery [are]
in
their
ways,
\VS{17}and
way
of
peace
they
have
not
known:
\VS{18}there
is
no
fear
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:18 }
Elohim}God
before
their
eyes.
\VS{19}Now
we
know
that
whatever
the
things
the
law
says,
it
speaks
to
those
under
the
law,
that
every
mouth
may
be
stopped,
and
all
the
world
be
under judgment
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:19 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{20}Wherefore
by
works
of
law
no
flesh shall
be
justified
before
him;
for
by
law [is]
knowledge
of
sin.
\VS{21}But
now
without
law
righteousness
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:21 }
Elohim}God
is
manifested, borne
witness
to
by
the
law
and
the
prophets;
\VS{22}righteousness
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:22 }
Elohim}God
by
faith
of
Jesus
Christ towards
all,
and
upon
all
those
who
believe:
for
there
is
no difference;
\VS{23}for
all
have
sinned,
and
come
short
of
the
glory
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:23 }
Elohim}God;
\VS{24}being
justified
freely
by
his
grace
through
the
redemption
which [is]
in
Christ
Jesus;
\VS{25}whom
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:25 }
Elohim}God
has set forth
a mercy-seat,
through
faith
in
his
blood,
for [the] shewing forth
of
his
righteousness,
in
respect
of
the passing
by
the
sins
that
had taken
place
before,
through
the forbearance
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:25 }
Elohim}God;
\VS{26}for [the] shewing forth
of
his
righteousness
in
the
present
time,
so
that
he
should
be
just,
and
justify
him
that
is
of [the]
faith
of
Jesus.
\VS{27}Where
then [is]
boasting?
It
has been
excluded.
By
what
law?
of
works? Nay,
but
by
law
of
faith;
\VS{28}for
we reckon
that
a
man
is
justified
by
faith,
without
works
of
law.
\VS{29}Is [God]
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:29 }
Elohim}God
of
Jews
only?
is
he
not
of [the]
nations
also? Yea,
of
nations
also:
\VS{30}since
indeed [it
is]
one
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:30 }
Elohim}God
who
shall
justify [the]
circumcision
on
the principle
of
faith,
and
uncircumcision
by
faith.
\VS{31}Do
we
then
make void
law
by
faith?
Far
be
the thought: [no,]
but
we
establish
law.

\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}What shall
we
say
then
that
Abraham
our
father
according
to
flesh
has
found?
\VS{2}For
if
Abraham
has
been
justified
on
the principle
of
works,
he
has whereof
to
boast:
but
not
before
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:2 }
Elohim}God;
\VS{3}for
what
does
the
scripture
say?
And
Abraham
believed
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:3 }
Elohim}God,
and
it
was
reckoned
to
him
as
righteousness.
\VS{4}Now
to him
that works
the
reward
is
not
reckoned
as
of
grace,
but
of debt:
\VS{5}but
to
him
who
does
not
work,
but
believes
on
him
who
justifies
the
ungodly,
his
faith
is
reckoned
as
righteousness.
\VS{6}Even
as
David
also declares
the
blessedness
of
the
man
to
whom
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:6 }
Elohim}God reckons
righteousness
without
works:
\VS{7}Blessed [they]
whose lawlessnesses
have
been
forgiven,
and
whose
sins
have
been
covered:
\VS{8}blessed [the]
man
to
whom [the]
Lord
shall
not
at all reckon
sin.
\VS{9}[Does]
this
blessedness
then [rest]
on
the
circumcision,
or
also
on
the
uncircumcision?
For
we
say
that
faith
has
been
reckoned
to
Abraham
as
righteousness.
\VS{10}How
then
has
it
been
reckoned?
when
he
was
in
circumcision,
or
in
uncircumcision?
Not
in
circumcision,
but
in
uncircumcision.
\VS{11}And
he
received [the]
sign
of
circumcision [as]
seal
of
the
righteousness
of
faith
which [he
had]
being
in
uncircumcision,
that
he
might
be [the]
father
of
all
them
that
believe
being
in
uncircumcision,
that
righteousness
might
be
reckoned
to
them
also;
\VS{12}and
father
of
circumcision,
not
only
to
those
who
are
of [the]
circumcision,
but
to
those
also
who
walk
in
the
steps
of
the
faith,
during
uncircumcision,
of
our
father
Abraham.
\VS{13}For [it
was]
not
by
law
that
the
promise
was
to
Abraham,
or
to
his
seed,
that
he should
be
heir
of [the]
world,
but
by
righteousness
of
faith.
\VS{14}For
if
they
which [are]
of
law
be
heirs,
faith
is
made vain,
and
the
promise
made
of
no effect.
\VS{15}For
law works
wrath;
but
where
no
law
is
neither [is
there]
transgression.
\VS{16}Therefore [it
is]
on
the
principle
of
faith,
that [it
might
be]
according
to
grace,
in
order
to
the
promise
being
sure
to
all
the
seed,
not
to
that
only
which [is]
of
the
law,
but
to
that
also
which [is]
of Abraham's
faith,
who
is
father
of
us
all,
\VS{17}(according
as
it
is
written,
I
have
made thee
father
of
many
nations,)
before
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:17 }
Elohim}God
whom
he
believed,
who quickens
the
dead,
and
calls
the
things
which
be
not
as
being;
\VS{18}who
against
hope
believed
in
hope
to
his
becoming
father
of
many
nations,
according
to
that
which
was
spoken,
So shall thy
seed
be:
\VS{19}and
not
being
weak
in
faith,
he considered
not
his
own
body already become
dead,
being
about
a
hundred
years
old,
and
the deadening
of Sarah's
womb,
\VS{20}and hesitated
not
at
the
promise
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:20 }
Elohim}God through
unbelief;
but found
strength
in
faith,
giving
glory
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:20 }
Elohim}God;
\VS{21}and
being
fully persuaded
that
what
he
has
promised
he
is
able
also
to
do;
\VS{22}wherefore
also
it
was
reckoned
to
him
as
righteousness.
\VS{23}Now
it
was
not
written
on
his
account
alone
that
it
was
reckoned
to
him,
\VS{24}but
on
ours
also,
to
whom,
believing
on
him
who
has
raised
from
among [the]
dead
Jesus
our
Lord,
\VS{25}who
has
been
delivered
for
our offences
and
has
been
raised
for
our
justification,
it
will
be reckoned.

\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Therefore
having
been
justified
on
the principle
of
faith,
we
have
peace towards
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:1 }
Elohim}God
through
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ;
\VS{2}by
whom
we
have
also
access
by
faith
into
this favour
in
which
we
stand,
and
we
boast
in
hope
of
the
glory
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:2 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{3}And
not
only [that],
but
we
also
boast
in
tribulations,
knowing
that
tribulation works
endurance;
\VS{4}and
endurance, experience;
and experience,
hope;
\VS{5}and
hope
does
not
make ashamed,
because
the
love
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:5 }
Elohim}God
is
shed abroad
in
our
hearts
by [the]
Holy
Spirit
which
has
been
given
to
us:
\VS{6}for
we
being
still without strength,
in [the]
due
time
Christ
has
died
for [the]
ungodly.
\VS{7}For
scarcely
for [the]
just [man]
will
one
die,
for
perhaps
for [the]
good [man]
some
one
might
also
dare
to
die;
\VS{8}but
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:8 }
Elohim}God
commends
{\BD{
his}}
love
to
us,
in
that,
we
being
still
sinners,
Christ
has
died
for
us.
\VS{9}Much
rather
therefore,
having
been
now
justified
in [the power
of]
his
blood,
we shall
be
saved
by
him
from
wrath.
\VS{10}For
if,
being
enemies,
we
have
been
reconciled
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:10 }
Elohim}God
through
the
death
of
his
Son,
much
rather, having
been
reconciled,
we
shall
be
saved
in [the power
of]
his
life.
\VS{11}And
not
only [that],
but [we
are] making
our
boast
in
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:11 }
Elohim}God,
through
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
through
whom
now
we
have
received
the
reconciliation.
\VS{12}For
this [cause],
even
as
by
one
man
sin
entered
into
the
world,
and
by
sin
death;
and
thus
death
passed
upon
all
men,
for
that
all
have
sinned:
\VS{13}(for
until
law
sin
was
in [the]
world;
but
sin
is
not put
to
account
when
there
is
no
law;
\VS{14}but
death
reigned
from
Adam
until
Moses,
even
upon
those
who
had
not
sinned
in
the
likeness
of Adam's
transgression,
who
is [the] figure
of
him
to
come.
\VS{15}But [shall]
not
the act
of favour [be]
as
the offence?
For
if
by
the offence
of
one
the
many
have
died,
much
rather
has
the
grace
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 5:15 }
Elohim}God,
and
the
free
gift
in
grace,
which [is]
by
the
one
man
Jesus
Christ,
abounded unto
the
many.
\VS{16}And [shall]
not
as
by
one
that
has
sinned [be]
the
gift?
For
the
judgment [was]
of
one
to
condemnation,
but
the
act
of favour,
of
many offences unto
justification.
\VS{17}For
if
by
the offence
of
the
one
death
reigned
by
the
one,
much
rather
shall
those
who
receive
the
abundance
of
grace,
and
of
the free
gift
of
righteousness,
reign
in
life
by
the
one
Jesus
Christ:)
\VS{18}so
then
as [it
was]
by
one offence towards
all
men
to
condemnation,
so
by
one
righteousness towards
all
men
for
justification
of
life.
\VS{19}For
as
indeed
by
the
disobedience
of
the
one
man
the
many
have
been constituted
sinners,
so
also
by
the
obedience
of
the
one
the
many
will
be constituted
righteous.
\VS{20}But
law
came
in,
in
order
that
the offence might abound;
but
where
sin
abounded
grace
has overabounded,
\VS{21}in
order
that,
even
as
sin
has
reigned
in [the power
of]
death,
so
also
grace
might
reign
through
righteousness
to
eternal
life
through
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord.

\par }\Chap{6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}What
then shall
we
say?
Should
we
continue
in
sin
that
grace
may abound?
\VS{2}Far
be
the thought.
We
who
have
died
to
sin,
how shall
we
still
live
in
it?
\VS{3}Are
you
ignorant
that
we,
as
many
as
have
been baptised unto
Christ
Jesus,
have
been baptised unto
his
death?
\VS{4}We
have
been
buried
therefore
with
him
by
baptism unto
death,
in
order
that,
even
as
Christ
has
been
raised
up
from
among [the]
dead
by
the
glory
of
the
Father,
so
{\BD{
we}}
also
should
walk
in
newness
of
life.
\VS{5}For
if
we
are
become identified
with [him]
in
the
likeness
of
his
death,
so
also
we
shall
be
of [his]
resurrection;
\VS{6}knowing
this,
that our
old
man
has
been
crucified
with [him],
that
the
body
of
sin
might
be annulled,
that
we
should
no
longer
serve
sin.
\VS{7}For
he
that has
died
is
justified
from
sin.
\VS{8}Now
if
we
have
died
with
Christ,
we
believe
that
we
shall
also
live
with
him,
\VS{9}knowing
that
Christ having
been
raised
up
from
among [the]
dead
dies
no
more:
death
has dominion
over
him
no
more.
\VS{10}For
in
that
he
has
died,
he
has
died
to
sin
once
for
all;
but
in
that
he
lives,
he
lives
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:10 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{11}So
also
{\BD{ye}}, reckon
yourselves
dead
to
sin
and
alive
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:11 }
Elohim}God
in
Christ
Jesus.
\VS{12}Let
not
sin
therefore
reign
in
your
mortal
body
to
obey
its
lusts.
\VS{13}Neither yield
your
members
instruments
of
unrighteousness
to
sin,
but yield
yourselves
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:13 }
Elohim}God
as
alive
from
among [the]
dead,
and
your
members
instruments
of
righteousness
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:13 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{14}For
sin shall
not
have dominion
over
{\BD{
you}},
for ye
are
not
under
law
but
under
grace.
\VS{15}What
then? should
we
sin
because
we
are
not
under
law
but
under
grace? Far
be
the thought.
\VS{16}Know ye
not
that
to
whom ye yield
yourselves bondmen
for
obedience, ye
are bondmen
to
him
whom ye
obey,
whether
of
sin unto
death,
or
of
obedience unto
righteousness?
\VS{17}But
thanks [be]
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:17 }
Elohim}God,
that ye
were bondmen
of
sin,
but
have
obeyed
from
the
heart
the form
of
teaching
into
which ye
were instructed.
\VS{18}Now, having got
your freedom
from
sin, ye
have become bondmen
to
righteousness.
\VS{19}I
speak humanly
on
account
of
the
weakness
of
your
flesh.
For
even
as ye
have yielded
your
members
in bondage
to
uncleanness
and
to
lawlessness unto
lawlessness,
so
now yield
your
members
in bondage
to
righteousness unto
holiness.
\VS{20}For
when ye
were bondmen
of
sin ye
were
free
from
righteousness.
\VS{21}What
fruit
therefore
had ye
{\BD{
then}}
in
the
things
of
which ye
are
{\BD{
now}}
ashamed?
for
the
end
of
{\BD{
them}} [is]
death.
\VS{22}But
{\BD{
now}},
having got
your freedom
from
sin,
and
having
become bondmen
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:22 }
Elohim}God, ye
have
your
fruit unto
holiness,
and
the
end
eternal
life.
\VS{23}For
the
wages
of
sin [is]
death;
but
the act
of favour
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 6:23 }
Elohim}God,
eternal
life
in
Christ
Jesus
our
Lord.

\par }\Chap{7}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Are ye
ignorant,
brethren, (for
I
speak
to
those
knowing
law,)
that
law rules
over
a
man
as
long
as
he
lives?
\VS{2}For
the
married
woman
is
bound
by
law
to
her
husband
so long
as
he
is
alive;
but
if
the
husband
should
die,
she
is clear
from
the
law
of
the
husband:
\VS{3}so
then,
the
husband
being
alive,
she shall
be
called
an
adulteress
if
she
be
to
another
man;
but
if
the
husband
should
die,
she
is
free
from
the
law,
so
as
not
to
be
an
adulteress,
though
she
be
to
another
man.
\VS{4}So
that,
my
brethren,
{\BD{ye}}
also
have
been
made
dead
to
the
law
by
the
body
of
the
Christ,
to
be
to
another,
who
has
been
raised
up
from
among [the]
dead,
in
order
that
we
might
bear
fruit
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:4 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{5}For
when
we
were
in
the
flesh
the
passions
of
sins,
which [were]
by
the
law, wrought
in
our
members
to
bring forth
fruit
to
death;
\VS{6}but
now
we
are clear
from
the
law,
having
died
in
that
in
which
we
were held,
so
that
we
should
serve
in
newness
of
spirit,
and
not
in
oldness
of
letter.
\VS{7}What shall
we
say
then? [is]
the
law
sin?
Far
be
the
thought.
But
I
had
not
known
sin,
unless
by
law:
for
I
had
not
had conscience
also
of
lust
unless
the
law
had
said, Thou shalt
not
lust;
\VS{8}but
sin, getting
a point
of attack
by
the
commandment, wrought
in
me
every
lust;
for
without
law
sin [was]
dead.
\VS{9}But
{\BD{
I}}
was
alive
without
law
once;
but
the
commandment having
come,
sin revived,
but
{\BD{
I}} died.
\VS{10}And
the
commandment,
which [was]
for
life,
was
found, [as]
to
me, itself [to
be] unto
death:
\VS{11}for
sin, getting
a point
of attack
by
the
commandment,
deceived
me,
and
by
it slew [me].
\VS{12}So
that
the
law
indeed [is]
holy,
and
the
commandment
holy,
and
just,
and
good.
\VS{13}Did
then
that
which
is
good
become
death
to
me?
Far
be
the thought.
But
sin,
that
it
might
appear
sin, working
death
to
me
by
that
which
is
good;
in
order
that
sin
by
the
commandment
might
become exceeding
sinful.
\VS{14}For
we
know
that
the
law
is
spiritual:
but
{\BD{
I}}
am fleshly,
sold
under
sin.
\VS{15}For
that
which
I
do,
I
do
not own:
for
not
what
I
will,
this
I
do;
but
what
I
hate,
this
I practise.
\VS{16}But
if
what
I
do
not
will,
this
I practise,
I consent
to
the
law
that [it
is]
right.
\VS{17}Now
then [it
is]
no
longer
{\BD{
I}} [that] do
it,
but
the
sin
that
dwells
in
me.
\VS{18}For
I
know
that
in
me,
that
is,
in
my
flesh,
good
does
not dwell:
for
to
will
is
there
with
me,
but
to
do
right [I find]
not.
\VS{19}For
I
do
not practise
the
good
that
I
will;
but
the
evil
I
do
not
will,
that
I
do.
\VS{20}But
if
what
{\BD{
I}}
do
not
will,
this
I practise, [it
is]
no
longer
{\BD{
I}} [that]
do
it,
but
the
sin
that
dwells
in
me.
\VS{21}I
find
then
the
law upon
{\BD{
me}}
who
will
to practise
what
is
right,
that
with
{\BD{
me}}
evil
is
there.
\VS{22}For
I delight
in
the
law
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:22 }
Elohim}God
according
to
the inward
man:
\VS{23}but
I
see
another
law
in
my
members, warring
in opposition
to
the
law
of
my
mind,
and bringing
me
into captivity
to
the
law
of
sin
which exists
in
my
members.
\VS{24}O
wretched
man
that
I [am]!
who
shall
deliver
me
out
of
this
body
of
death?
\VS{25}I
thank
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:25 }
Elohim}God,
through
Jesus
Christ
our
Lord.
So
then
{\BD{
I}}
{\BD{
myself}}
with
the
mind
serve
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:25 }
Elohim}God's
law;
but
with
the
flesh sin's
law.

\par }\Chap{8}{\PP \VerseOne{1}[There
is]
then
now
no
condemnation
to
those
in
Christ
Jesus.
\VS{2}For
the
law
of
the
Spirit
of
life
in
Christ
Jesus
has
set me
free
from
the
law
of
sin
and
of
death.
\VS{3}For
what
the
law
could
not
do,
in
that
it
was
weak
through
the
flesh,
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:3 }
Elohim}God, having
sent
his
own
Son,
in
likeness
of
flesh
of
sin,
and
for
sin,
has
condemned
sin
in
the
flesh,
\VS{4}in
order
that
the
righteous
requirement
of
the
law
should
be
fulfilled
in
us,
who
do
not
walk
according
to
flesh
but
according
to
Spirit.
\VS{5}For
they
that
are
according
to
flesh
mind
the
things
of
the
flesh;
and
they
that
are
according
to
Spirit,
the
things
of
the
Spirit.
\VS{6}For
the
mind
of
the
flesh [is]
death;
but
the
mind
of
the
Spirit
life
and
peace.
\VS{7}Because
the
mind
of
the
flesh
is enmity
against
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:7 }
Elohim}God:
for
it
is
not
subject
to
the
law
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:7 }
Elohim}God;
for
neither
indeed
can
it
be:
\VS{8}and
they
that
are
in
flesh
cannot
please
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:8 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{9}But
{\BD{ye}}
are
not
in
flesh
but
in
Spirit,
if
indeed
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:9 }
Elohim}God's
Spirit dwell
in
you;
but
if
any
one
has
not [the]
Spirit
of
Christ
{\BD{
he}}
is
not
of
him:
\VS{10}but
if
Christ
be
in
you,
the
body
is
dead
on
account
of
sin,
but
the
Spirit
life
on
account
of
righteousness.
\VS{11}But
if
the
Spirit
of
him
that
has
raised
up
Jesus
from
among [the]
dead
dwell
in
you,
he
that
has
raised
up
Christ
from
among [the]
dead
shall quicken
your
mortal
bodies
also
on
account
of
his
Spirit
which
dwells
in
you.
\VS{12}So
then,
brethren,
we
are
debtors,
not
to
the
flesh,
to
live
according
to
flesh;
\VS{13}for
if ye
live
according
to
flesh, ye
are
about
to
die;
but
if,
by
the
Spirit, ye
put
to
death
the
deeds
of
the
body, ye shall
live:
\VS{14}for
as
many
as
are
led
by [the]
Spirit
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:14 }
Elohim}God,
{\BD{
these}}
are
sons
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:14 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{15}For ye
have
not
received
a
spirit
of bondage
again
for
fear,
but ye
have
received
a
spirit
of
adoption, whereby
we
cry,
Abba,
Father.
\VS{16}The
Spirit
itself bears
witness
with
our
spirit,
that
we
are
children
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:16 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{17}And
if
children,
heirs
also:
heirs
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:17 }
Elohim}God,
and Christ's joint
heirs;
if
indeed
we
suffer
with [him],
that
we
may
also
be
glorified
with [him].
\VS{18}For
I reckon
that
the
sufferings
of
this
present
time
are
not
worthy [to
be compared]
with
the coming
glory
to
be
revealed
to
us.
\VS{19}For
the
anxious looking out
of
the
creature expects
the
revelation
of
the
sons
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:19 }
Elohim}God:
\VS{20}for
the
creature has
been made
subject
to
vanity,
not
of
its will,
but
by
reason
of
him
who has
subjected [the same],
in
hope
\VS{21}that
the
creature
itself
also
shall
be
set
free
from
the bondage
of
corruption
into
the
liberty
of
the
glory
of
the
children
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:21 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{22}For
we
know
that
the
whole
creation
groans
together
and travails
in pain
together
until
now.
\VS{23}And
not
only [that],
but
even
{\BD{
we}}
ourselves,
who
have
the first-fruits
of
the
Spirit,
we
also
ourselves
groan
in
ourselves,
awaiting
adoption, [that
is]
the
redemption
of
our
body.
\VS{24}For
we
have
been
saved
in
hope;
but
hope
seen
is
not
hope;
for
what
any
one
sees,
why
does
he
also
hope?
\VS{25}But
if
what
we
see
not
we
hope,
we
expect
in
patience.
\VS{26}And
in
like
manner
the
Spirit joins
also
its
help
to
our
weakness;
for
we
do
not
know
what
we
should
pray
for
as
is fitting,
but
the
Spirit
itself makes intercession
with
groanings
which
cannot
be uttered.
\VS{27}But
he
who
searches
the
hearts
knows
what [is]
the
mind
of
the
Spirit,
because
he
intercedes
for
saints
according
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:27 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{28}But
we
{\BD{
do}}
know
that
all
things
work
together
for
good
to
those
who
love
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:28 }
Elohim}God,
to
those
who
are
called
according
to
purpose.
\VS{29}Because
whom
he
has
foreknown,
he
has
also predestinated [to
be] conformed
to
the
image
of
his
Son,
so
that
he
should
be [the]
firstborn
among
many
brethren.
\VS{30}But
whom
he
has predestinated,
these
also
he
has
called;
and
whom
he
has
called,
these
also
he
has
justified;
but
whom
he
has
justified,
these
also
he
has
glorified.
\VS{31}What
shall
we
then
say
to
these
things?
If
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:31 }
Elohim}God [be]
for
us,
who
against
us?
\VS{32}He
who, yea,
has
not spared
his
own
Son,
but
delivered
him
up
for
us
all,
how
shall
he
not
also
with
him grant
us
all
things?
\VS{33}Who
shall
bring
an accusation
against
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:33 }
Elohim}God's
elect? [It
is]
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:33 }
Elohim}God
who
justifies:
\VS{34}who
is
he
that
condemns? [It
is]
Christ
who
has
died,
but
rather
has
been [also]
raised
up;
who
is
also
at
the
right
hand
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:34 }
Elohim}God;
who
also
intercedes
for
us.
\VS{35}Who
shall
separate us
from
the
love
of
Christ?
tribulation
or
distress,
or
persecution,
or
famine,
or
nakedness,
or
danger,
or
sword?
\VS{36}According
as it
is
written,
For thy
sake
we
are
put
to
death
all
the
day
long;
we
have been
reckoned
as
sheep
for
slaughter.
\VS{37}But
in
all
these
things
we
more than
conquer
through
him
that
has
loved
us.
\VS{38}For
I
am
persuaded
that
neither
death,
nor
life,
nor
angels,
nor
principalities,
nor
things
present,
nor
things
to
come,
nor
powers,
\VS{39}nor
height,
nor
depth,
nor
any
other
creature,
shall
be
able
to
separate
us
from
the
love
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:39 }
Elohim}God,
which [is]
in
Christ
Jesus
our
Lord.

\par }\Chap{9}{\PP \VerseOne{1}I
say [the]
truth
in
Christ,
I
lie
not,
my
conscience
bearing
witness
with
me
in [the]
Holy
Spirit,
\VS{2}that
I
have
great
grief
and uninterrupted
pain
in
my
heart,
\VS{3}for
I
have
wished,
I
myself,
to
be
a curse
from
the
Christ
for
my
brethren,
my kinsmen,
according
to
flesh;
\VS{4}who
are
Israelites;
whose [is]
the
adoption,
and
the
glory,
and
the
covenants,
and
the law-giving,
and
the
service,
and
the
promises;
\VS{5}whose [are]
the
fathers;
and
of
whom,
as
according
to
flesh, [is]
the
Christ,
who
is
over
all,
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:5 }
Elohim}God
blessed
for
ever.
Amen.
\VS{6}Not
however
as
though
the
word
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:6 }
Elohim}God
had
failed;
for
not
all [are]
Israel
which [are]
of
Israel;
\VS{7}nor
because
they
are
seed
of
Abraham [are]
all
children:
but,
In
Isaac
shall
a
seed
be
called
to thee.
\VS{8}That
is, [they
that
are]
the
children
of
the
flesh,
these [are]
not
the
children
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:8 }
Elohim}God;
but
the
children
of
the
promise
are
reckoned
as
seed.
\VS{9}For
this
word [is]
of
promise,
According
to
this
time
I
will
come,
and
there
shall
be
a
son
to
Sarah.
\VS{10}And
not
only [that],
but Rebecca
having
conceived
by
one,
Isaac
our
father,
\VS{11}[the
children]
indeed being
not
yet
born,
or
having
done
anything
good
or worthless (that
the
purpose
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:11 }
Elohim}God
according
to
election
might
abide,
not
of
works,
but
of
him
that
calls),
\VS{12}it
was
said
to
her,
The
greater
shall
serve
the
less:
\VS{13}according
as
it
is
written,
I
have
loved
Jacob,
and
I
have
hated
Esau.
\VS{14}What
shall
we
say
then? [Is
there]
unrighteousness
with
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:14 }
Elohim}God?
Far
be
the
thought.
\VS{15}For
he
says
to
Moses,
I
will shew
mercy
to
whom
I
will shew
mercy,
and
I
will feel
compassion
for
whom
I
will feel
compassion.
\VS{16}So
then [it
is]
not
of
him
that
wills,
nor
of
him
that
runs,
but
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:16 }
Elohim}God
that shews
mercy.
\VS{17}For
the
scripture
says
to
Pharaoh,
For
this
very
thing
I
have
raised thee
up
from amongst [men],
that
I
might
thus shew
in thee
my
power,
and
so
that
my
name
should
be declared
in
all
the
earth.
\VS{18}So
then,
to
whom
he
will
he shews
mercy,
and
whom
he
will
he
hardens.
\VS{19}Thou wilt
say
to
me
then,
Why
does
he
yet
find
fault?
for
who
resists
his
purpose?
\VS{20}Aye,
but thou,
O
man,
who art
{\BD{thou}}
that answerest again
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:20 }
Elohim}God?
Shall
the
thing
formed
say
to
him
that
has
formed
it,
Why hast thou
made
me
thus?
\VS{21}Or
has
not
the
potter
authority
over
the
clay,
out
of
the
same
lump
to
make
one
vessel
to honour,
and another
to dishonour?
\VS{22}And
if
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:22 }
Elohim}God, minded
to shew
his
wrath
and
to
make
his
power
known,
endured
with
much long-suffering
vessels
of
wrath fitted
for
destruction;
\VS{23}and
that
he
might
make
known
the
riches
of
his
glory
upon
vessels
of
mercy,
which
he
had
before
prepared
for
glory,
\VS{24}us,
whom
he
has
also
called,
not
only
from amongst [the]
Jews,
but
also
from amongst [the]
nations?
\VS{25}As
he
says
also
in
Hosea,
I
will
call not-my-people
My
people;
and the-not-beloved
Beloved.
\VS{26}And
it
shall
be,
in
the
place
where
it
was
said
to
them,
{\BD{Ye}} [are]
not
my
people,
there
shall
they
be
called
Sons
of [the]
living
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:26 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{27}But Esaias
cries
concerning
Israel, Should
the
number
of
the children
of
Israel
be
as
the
sand
of
the
sea,
the
remnant shall
be
saved:
\VS{28}for [he]
is
bringing
the
matter
to
an end,
and [cutting [it] short
in righteousness;
because]
a cutting short
of
the
matter
will [the]
Lord
accomplish
upon
the
earth.
\VS{29}And
according
as Esaias
said before,
Unless [the]
Lord
of hosts
had
left us
a
seed,
we
had
been
as
Sodom,
and
made
like
even
as Gomorrha.
\VS{30}What
then shall
we
say?
That [they
of
the]
nations,
who
did
not follow
after
righteousness,
have
attained
righteousness,
but [the]
righteousness
that
is
on
the principle
of
faith.
\VS{31}But
Israel,
pursuing
after
a
law
of
righteousness,
has
not
attained
to [that]
law.
\VS{32}Wherefore?
Because [it
was]
not
on
the principle
of
faith,
but
as
of
works.
They
have
stumbled
at
the stumblingstone,
\VS{33}according
as
it
is
written,
Behold,
I
place
in
Zion
a
stone
of
stumbling
and
rock
of offence:
and
he
that
believes
on
him
shall
not
be ashamed.

\par }\Chap{10}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Brethren,
the delight
of
my
own
heart
and
my
supplication
which [I address]
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:1 }
Elohim}God
for
them
is
for
salvation.
\VS{2}For
I
bear
them
witness
that
they
have
zeal
for
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:2 }
Elohim}God,
but
not
according
to
knowledge.
\VS{3}For
they, being
ignorant
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:3 }
Elohim}God's
righteousness,
and
seeking
to
establish
their
own [righteousness],
have
not submitted
to
the
righteousness
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:3 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{4}For
Christ
is [the]
end
of
law
for
righteousness
to
every
one
that
believes.
\VS{5}For
Moses lays
down
in
writing
the
righteousness
which
is
of
the
law,
The
man
who
has practised
those
things
shall
live
by
them.
\VS{6}But
the
righteousness
of
faith
speaks
thus:
Do
not
say
in thine
heart,
Who
shall
ascend
to
the
heavens?
that
is,
to
bring
Christ
down;
\VS{7}or,
Who
shall
descend
into
the
abyss?
that
is,
to
bring
up
Christ
from
among [the]
dead.
\VS{8}But
what
says
it?
The
word
is
near thee,
in thy
mouth
and
in thy
heart:
that
is,
the
word
of
faith,
which
we
preach:
\VS{9}that
if thou shalt
confess
with thy
mouth
Jesus
as
Lord,
and shalt
believe
in thine
heart
that
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:9 }
Elohim}God
has
raised
him
from
among [the]
dead, thou shalt
be
saved.
\VS{10}For
with [the]
heart
is
believed
to
righteousness;
and
with [the]
mouth confession
made
to
salvation.
\VS{11}For
the
scripture
says,
No
one
believing
on
him shall
be ashamed.
\VS{12}For
there
is
no difference
of
Jew
and
Greek;
for
the
same
Lord
of
all [is]
rich towards
all
that
call
upon
him.
\VS{13}For
every
one whosoever,
who
shall
call
on
the
name
of
the
Lord,
shall
be
saved.
\VS{14}How
then
shall
they
call
upon
him
in
whom
they
have
not
believed?
and
how
shall
they
believe
on
him
of
whom
they
have
not
heard?
and
how
shall
they
hear
without
one
who
preaches?
\VS{15}and
how shall
they
preach
unless
they
have
been
sent?
according
as
it
is
written,
How
beautiful
the
feet
of
them
that announce glad tidings
of peace,
of
them
that announce glad tidings
of
good
things!
\VS{16}But
they
have
not
all
obeyed
the glad tidings.
For Esaias
says,
Lord,
who
has
believed
our
report?
\VS{17}So
faith
then [is]
by
a
report,
but
the
report
by
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:17 }
Elohim}God's
word.
\VS{18}But
I
say,
Have
they
not
heard? Yea,
surely,
Their
voice
has
gone
out
into
all
the
earth,
and
their
words
to
the extremities
of
the habitable
world.
\VS{19}But
I
say,
Has
not
Israel
known?
First,
Moses
says,
{\BD{
I}}
will
provoke
you
to
jealousy through [them
that
are]
not
a
nation: through
a
nation
without
understanding
I
will
anger
you.
\VS{20}But Esaias
is
very
bold,
and
says,
I
have
been
found
by
those
not
seeking
me;
I
have
become
manifest
to
those
not inquiring
after
me.
\VS{21}But unto
Israel
he
says,
All
the
day
long
I
have stretched out
my
hands unto
a
people disobeying
and opposing.

\par }\Chap{11}{\PP \VerseOne{1}I
say
then,
Has
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:1 }
Elohim}God cast
away
his
people?
Far
be
the
thought.
For
{\BD{
I}}
also
am
an
Israelite,
of [the]
seed
of
Abraham,
of [the]
tribe
of
Benjamin.
\VS{2}\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:2 }
Elohim}God
has
not cast
away
his
people
whom
he
foreknew.
Know ye
not
what
the
scripture
says
in [the history
of] Elias,
how
he
pleads
with
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:2 }
Elohim}God
against
Israel?
\VS{3}Lord,
they
have
killed thy
prophets,
they
have dug
down thine
altars;
and
{\BD{
I}}
have
been left
alone,
and
they
seek
my
life.
\VS{4}But
what
says
the
divine answer
to
him?
I
have
left
to
myself
seven
thousand
men,
who
have
not
bowed
knee
to
Baal.
\VS{5}Thus,
then,
in
the
present
time
also
there
has
been
a
remnant
according
to
election
of
grace.
\VS{6}But
if
by
grace,
no
longer
of
works:
since [otherwise]
grace
is
no
more
grace.
\VS{7}What [is
it]
then?
What
Israel
seeks
for,
that
he
has
not
obtained;
but
the
election
has
obtained,
and
the
rest
have
been blinded,
\VS{8}according
as
it
is
written,
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:8 }
Elohim}God
has
given
to
them
a
spirit
of slumber,
eyes
not
to
see,
and
ears
not
to
hear, unto
this
day.
\VS{9}And
David
says,
Let
their
table
be
for
a
snare,
and
for
a gin,
and
for
a fall-trap,
and
for
a recompense
to
them:
\VS{10}let
their
eyes
be
darkened
not
to
see,
and bow down
their back alway.
\VS{11}I
say
then,
Have
they stumbled
in
order
that
they
might
fall?
Far
be
the
thought:
but
by
their
fall [there
is]
salvation
to
the
nations
to
provoke
them
to
jealousy.
\VS{12}But
if
their fall [be
the] world's
wealth,
and
their loss [the]
wealth
of [the]
nations,
how
much
rather
their fulness?
\VS{13}For
I
speak
to
you,
the
nations, inasmuch
as
{\BD{
I}}
am
apostle
of
nations,
I
glorify
my
ministry;
\VS{14}if
by
any
means
I
shall
provoke
to
jealousy [them
which
are]
my
flesh,
and
shall
save
some
from
among
them.
\VS{15}For
if
their casting away [be
the] world's
reconciliation,
what [their] reception
but
life
from
among [the]
dead?
\VS{16}Now
if
the first-fruit [be]
holy,
the
lump
also;
and
if
the
root [be]
holy,
the
branches
also.
\VS{17}Now
if
some
of
the
branches
have
been
broken
out,
and
{\BD{thou}},
being
a
wild
olive
tree, hast
been
grafted
in amongst
them,
and hast
become
a fellow-partaker
of
the
root
and
of
the fatness
of
the
olive
tree,
\VS{18}boast
not
against
the
branches;
but
if thou
boast, [it
is]
not
{\BD{thou}} bearest
the
root,
but
the
root thee.
\VS{19}Thou wilt
say
then,
The
branches
have been
broken out
in
order
that
{\BD{
I}}
might
be
grafted
in.
\VS{20}Right:
they
have
been
broken
out through
unbelief,
and
{\BD{thou}} standest through
faith.
Be
not high-minded,
but
fear:
\VS{21}if
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:21 }
Elohim}God
indeed
has
not spared
the
natural
branches; lest it
might
be
he
spare
not thee
either.
\VS{22}Behold
then [the] goodness
and
severity
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:22 }
Elohim}God:
upon
them
who
have
fallen,
severity;
upon thee goodness
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:22 }
Elohim}God,
if thou shalt abide
in goodness,
since [otherwise]
{\BD{thou}}
also wilt
be
cut away.
\VS{23}And
{\BD{
they}}
too,
if
they abide
not
in
unbelief,
shall
be
grafted
in;
for
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:23 }
Elohim}God
is
able
again
to graft
them
in.
\VS{24}For
if
{\BD{thou}} hast
been
cut
out
of
the
olive
tree
wild
by
nature,
and,
contrary
to
nature, hast
been
grafted
into
the good
olive
tree,
how
much
rather
shall
they,
who
are
according
to
nature
be
grafted
into
their
own
olive
tree?
\VS{25}For
I
do
not
wish
you
to
be
ignorant,
brethren,
of
this
mystery,
that ye
may
not
be
wise
in
your
own conceits,
that blindness
in
part
is
happened
to
Israel,
until
the fulness
of
the
nations
be
come
in;
\VS{26}and
so
all
Israel
shall
be
saved. According
as
it
is
written,
The
deliverer
shall
come
out
of
Zion;
he
shall
turn
away
ungodliness
from
Jacob.
\VS{27}And
this
is
the
covenant
from
me
to
them,
when
I
shall
have
taken
away
their
sins.
\VS{28}As regards
the glad tidings, [they
are]
enemies
on
your
account;
but
as regards
election,
beloved
on
account
of
the
fathers.
\VS{29}For
the
gifts
and
the
calling
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:29 }
Elohim}God [are]
not subject
to repentance.
\VS{30}For
as
indeed
{\BD{ye}} [also]
once
have
not believed
in
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:30 }

but
now

mercy through
the unbelief
of

these
also
have
now
not believed
in

in
order
that

\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:32 }
Elohim}God hath
shut
up together
all
in unbelief,
in
order
that
he
might shew
mercy
to
all.
\VS{33}O
depth
of
riches
both
of [the]
wisdom
and
knowledge
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 11:33 }
Elohim}God!
how
unsearchable
his

and untraceable
his

\VS{34}For
who

of [the]

or
who
has
been
his counsellor?
\VS{35}or
who

\VS{36}For

Amen.

\par }\Chap{12}{\PP \VerseOne{1}I beseech
you
therefore,
brethren,
by
the compassions
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 12:1 }
Elohim}God,
to
present
your
bodies
a
living
sacrifice,
holy,
acceptable
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 12:1 }
Elohim}God, [which
is]
your intelligent
service.
\VS{2}And
be
not
conformed
to
this

but
be
transformed
by
the

that ye

what [is]
the
good
and
acceptable
and
perfect

of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 12:2 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{3}For
I
say,
through
the
grace
which
has
been
given
to
me,
to
every
one
that
is
among
you,
not
to
have high thoughts
above
what
he
should
think;
but
to
think
so
as
to
be wise,
as
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 12:3 }
Elohim}God
has dealt
to
each
a
measure
of
faith.
\VS{4}For,
as
in
one
body
we
have
many
members,
but
all
the
members
have
not
the
same office;
\VS{5}thus
we, [being]
many,
are
one
body
in
Christ,
and
each
one
members
one
of
the
other.
\VS{6}But
having
different
gifts,
according
to
the
grace
which
has
been
given
to
us,
whether [it
be]
prophecy, [let
us prophesy]
according
to
the
proportion
of
faith;
\VS{7}or
service, [let
us occupy ourselves]
in
service;
or
he
that
teaches,
in
teaching;
\VS{8}or
he
that
exhorts,
in
exhortation;
he
that
gives,
in
simplicity;
he
that leads,
with
diligence;
he
that shews
mercy,
with
cheerfulness.
\VS{9}Let
love
be unfeigned; abhorring
evil; cleaving
to
good:
\VS{10}as
to
brotherly
love, kindly affectioned towards
one
another:
as
to honour,
each taking
the lead
in paying
it
to
the
other:
\VS{11}as
to diligent zealousness,
not slothful;
in
spirit
fervent;
serving
the
Lord.
\VS{12}As regards
hope,
rejoicing: as regards
tribulation, enduring: as regards
prayer,
persevering:
\VS{13}distributing
to
the necessities
of
the
saints; given
to
hospitality.
\VS{14}Bless
them
that
persecute
you;
bless,
and
curse
not.
\VS{15}Rejoice
with those
that
rejoice,
weep
with those
that
weep.
\VS{16}Have
the
same
respect
one
for
another,
not minding
high
things,
but going
along
with
the
lowly:
be
not
wise
in
your
own eyes:
\VS{17}recompensing
to
no
one
evil
for
evil: providing
things
honest
before
all
men:
\VS{18}if
possible,
as
far
as
depends
on
you, living
in
peace
with
all
men;
\VS{19}not
avenging
yourselves,
beloved,
but
give
place
to
wrath;
for
it
is
written,
Vengeance [belongs]
to
me,
{\BD{
I}}
will recompense, saith
the
Lord.
\VS{20}If therefore thine
enemy
should
hunger,
feed
him;
if
he
should
thirst,
give
him
drink;
for,
so
doing, thou shalt
heap
coals
of
fire
upon
his
head.
\VS{21}Be
not
overcome
by
evil,
but
overcome
evil
with
good.

\par }\Chap{13}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Let
every
soul
be
subject
to
the
authorities
that
are above [him].
For
there
is
no
authority
except
from
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:1 }
Elohim}God;
and
those
that
exist
are
set up
by
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:1 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{2}So
that
he
that sets
himself
in opposition
to
the
authority
resists
the
ordinance
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:2 }
Elohim}God;
and
they
who [thus]
resist
shall
bring
sentence
of guilt
on
themselves.
\VS{3}For
rulers
are
not
a terror
to
a
good
work,
but
to
an
evil [one]. Dost thou
desire
then
not
to
be
afraid
of
the
authority? practise [what
is]
good,
and thou shalt
have
praise
from
it;
\VS{4}for
it
is
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:4 }
Elohim}God's
minister
to thee
for
good.
But
if thou practisest
evil,
fear;
for
it
bears
not
the
sword
in
vain;
for
it
is
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:4 }
Elohim}God's
minister,
an
avenger
for
wrath
to
him
that
does
evil.
\VS{5}Wherefore
it
is
necessary
to
be
subject,
not
only
on
account
of
wrath,
but
also
on
account
of
conscience.
\VS{6}For
on
this
account ye
pay tribute
also;
for
they
are
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:6 }
Elohim}God's officers, attending
continually
on
this
very
thing.
\VS{7}Render
to
all
their dues:
to
whom tribute [is
due], tribute;
to
whom
custom,
custom;
to
whom
fear,
fear;
to
whom honour, honour.
\VS{8}Owe
no
one
anything,
unless
to
love
one
another:
for
he
that
loves
another
has
fulfilled
the
law.
\VS{9}For, Thou shalt
not
commit
adultery, Thou shalt
not kill, Thou shalt
not
steal, Thou shalt
not
lust;
and
if
there
be
any
other
commandment,
it
is
summed up
in
this
word,
namely, Thou shalt
love thy neighbour
as thyself.
\VS{10}Love works
no ill
to its neighbour;
love
therefore [is
the] whole
law.
\VS{11}This
also,
knowing
the
time,
that
it
is
already
time
that
{\BD{
we}}
should
be aroused
out
of
sleep;
for
now [is]
our
salvation
nearer
than
when
we
believed.
\VS{12}The
night
is
far spent,
and
the
day
is
near;
let us cast
away
therefore
the
works
of
darkness,
and
let us
put
on
the armour
of
light.
\VS{13}As
in
the
day, let
us
walk becomingly;
not
in rioting
and
drunkenness,
not
in chambering
and lasciviousness,
not
in
strife
and emulation.
\VS{14}But
put
on
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
and
do
not take forethought
for
the
flesh
to [fulfil its]
lusts.

\par }\Chap{14}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now

receive,

to [the] determining
of questions

\VS{2}One

is assured
that
he
may
eat
all

but
the
weak
eats herbs.
\VS{3}Let
not
him
that
eats
make little
of
him
that
eats
not;
and
let
not
him
that

that judgest

more

that regards

it

And

eats
to [the]

he
gives
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:6 }
Elohim}God
thanks;
and
he
that
does
not
eat, [it
is]
to [the]
Lord
he
does
not
eat,
and
gives
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:6 }
Elohim}God
thanks.
\VS{7}For
none
of us
lives
to
himself,
and
none
dies
to
himself.
\VS{8}For
both
if
we
should
live, [it
is]
to
the
Lord
we
live;
and
if
we
should
die, [it
is]
to
the
Lord
we
die:
both
if
we
should
live
then,
and
if
we
should
die,
we
are
the Lord's.
\VS{9}For
to
this [end]
Christ
has
died
and
lived [again],
that
he
might rule
over
both
dead
and
living.
\VS{10}But thou,
why judgest thou thy
brother?
or
again, thou,
why dost thou make little
of thy
brother?
for
we
shall
all
be placed
before
the judgment-seat
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:10 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{11}For
it
is
written,
{\BD{
I}}
live, saith [the]
Lord,
that
to
me
shall
bow
every
knee,
and
every
tongue
shall
confess
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:11 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{12}So
then
each
of
us
shall
give
an
account
concerning
himself
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:12 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{13}Let us
no
longer
therefore
judge
one
another;
but
judge ye
this
rather,
not
to
put
a stumbling-block
or
a fall-trap
before
his
brother.
\VS{14}I
know,
and
am
persuaded
in
the
Lord
Jesus,
that
nothing
is
unclean
of
itself;
except
to
him
who reckons
anything
to
be
unclean,
to
that
man [it
is]
unclean.
\VS{15}For
if
on
account
of
meat thy
brother
is
grieved, thou walkest
no
longer
according
to
love.
Destroy
not
him
with thy
meat
for
whom
Christ
has
died.
\VS{16}Let
not
then
your
good
be
evil
spoken
of;
\VS{17}for
the
kingdom
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:17 }
Elohim}God
is
not
eating
and
drinking,
but
righteousness,
and
peace,
and
joy
in [the]
Holy
Spirit.
\VS{18}For
he
that
in
this
serves
the
Christ [is]
acceptable
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:18 }
Elohim}God
and
approved
of
men.
\VS{19}So
then
let
us
pursue
the
things
which tend
to
peace,
and
things whereby
one
shall
build
up
another.
\VS{20}For
the
sake
of
meat
do
not
destroy
the
work
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:20 }
Elohim}God.
All
things
indeed [are]
pure;
but [it
is]
evil
to
that
man
who
eats
while
stumbling [in
doing
so].
\VS{21}[It
is]
right
not
to
eat
meat,
nor
drink
wine,
nor [do
anything]
in
which thy
brother
stumbles,
or
is
offended,
or
is
weak.
\VS{22}Hast
{\BD{thou}}
faith?
have [it]
to thyself
before
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:22 }
Elohim}God.
Blessed [is]
he
who
does
not
judge
himself
in
what
he allows.
\VS{23}But
he
that
doubts,
if
he
eat,
is
condemned;
because [it
is]
not
of
faith;
but
whatever [is]
not
of
faith
is
sin.

\par }\Chap{15}{\PP \VerseOne{1}But
{\BD{
we}}
ought,
we
that
are
strong,
to
bear
the infirmities
of
the weak,
and
not
to
please
ourselves.
\VS{2}Let
each
one
of
us
please
his neighbour
with
a
view
to
what
is
good,
to
edification.
\VS{3}For
the
Christ
also
did
not
please
himself;
but according
as
it
is
written,
The
reproaches
of
them
that
reproach thee
have
fallen
upon
me.
\VS{4}For
as
many
things
as
have
been
written
before
have
been
written
for
our
instruction,
that
through
endurance
and
through
encouragement
of
the
scriptures
we
might
have
hope.
\VS{5}Now
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:5 }
Elohim}God
of
endurance
and
of
encouragement
give
to
you
to
be
like-minded
one
toward
another,
according
to
Christ
Jesus;
\VS{6}that ye
may
with
one
accord,
with
one
mouth,
glorify
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:6 }
Elohim}God
and
Father
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ.
\VS{7}Wherefore
receive ye
one
another, according
as
the
Christ
also
has
received
you
to [the]
glory
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:7 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{8}For
I
say
that
Jesus
Christ
became
a
minister
of [the]
circumcision
for [the]
truth
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:8 }
Elohim}God,
to
confirm
the
promises
of
the
fathers;
\VS{9}and
that
the
nations
should
glorify
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:9 }
Elohim}God
for
mercy; according
as
it
is
written,
For
this cause
I
will
confess
to thee
among [the]
nations,
and
will
sing
to thy
name.
\VS{10}And
again
he
says,
Rejoice,
nations,
with
his
people.
\VS{11}And
again,
Praise
the
Lord,
all [ye]
nations,
and let
all
the
peoples laud
him.
\VS{12}And
again, Esaias
says,
There
shall
be
the
root
of
Jesse,
and
one
that
arises,
to
rule
over [the]
nations:
in
him
shall [the]
nations
hope.
\VS{13}Now
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:13 }
Elohim}God
of
hope
fill
you
with
all
joy
and
peace
in
believing,
so
that ye
should
abound
in
hope
by [the]
power
of [the]
Holy
Spirit.
\VS{14}But
I
am
persuaded,
my
brethren,
I
myself
also,
concerning
you,
that
yourselves
also
are
full
of
goodness,
filled
with
all
knowledge,
able
also
to
admonish
one
another.
\VS{15}But
I
have
written
to
you
the more
boldly, [brethren,]
in
part,
as
putting
you
in mind,
because
of
the
grace
given
to
me
by
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:15 }
Elohim}God,
\VS{16}for
me
to
be
minister
of
Christ
Jesus
to
the
nations, carrying
on
as
a sacrificial service
the [message
of] glad tidings
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:16 }
Elohim}God,
in
order
that
the
offering
up
of
the
nations
might
be
acceptable,
sanctified
by [the]
Holy
Spirit.
\VS{17}I
have
therefore [whereof
to] boast
in
Christ
Jesus
in
the
things
which pertain
to
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:17 }
Elohim}God.
\VS{18}For
I
will
not
dare
to
speak
anything
of
the
things
which
Christ
has
not wrought
by
me,
for [the]
obedience
of [the]
nations,
by
word
and
deed,
\VS{19}in [the]
power
of
signs
and
wonders,
in [the]
power
of [the]
Spirit
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 15:19 }
Elohim}God;
so
that
I,
from
Jerusalem,
and
in
a circuit
round
to
Illyricum,
have
fully
preached
the glad tidings
of
the
Christ;
\VS{20}and
so aiming
to announce
the glad tidings,
not
where
Christ
has
been
named,
that
I
might
not
build
upon another's
foundation;
\VS{21}but according
as
it
is
written,
To
whom
there
was
nothing
told
concerning
him,
they
shall
see;
and
they
that
have
not
heard
shall
understand.
\VS{22}Wherefore
also
I
have
been
often
hindered
from
coming
to
you.
\VS{23}But
now,
having
no
longer
place
in
these
regions,
and
having
great desire
to
come
to
you
these
many
years,
\VS{24}whenever
I
should
go
to
Spain; (for
I
hope
to
see
you
as
I
go
through,
and
by
you
to
be
set forward thither,
if
first
I
shall
have
been
in
part filled
with
your company;)
\VS{25}but
now
I
go
to
Jerusalem,
ministering
to
the
saints;
\VS{26}for
Macedonia
and
Achaia
have
been
well
pleased
to
make
a
certain
contribution
for
the
poor
of
the
saints
who [are]
in
Jerusalem.
\VS{27}They
have
been
well
pleased
indeed,
and
they
are
their
debtors;
for
if
the
nations
have participated
in
their
spiritual
things,
they
ought
also
in
fleshly
to
minister
to
them.
\VS{28}Having
finished
this
therefore,
and
having
sealed
to
them
this
fruit,
I
will
set
off
by
you
into
Spain.
\VS{29}But
I
know
that,
coming
to
you,
I shall
come
in [the] fulness
of [the]
blessing
of
Christ.
\VS{30}But
I beseech
you,
brethren,
by
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
and
by
the
love
of
the
Spirit,
that ye
strive
together
with
me
in
prayers
for
me
to

Elohim}God;
\VS{31}that
I
may
be saved
from
those
that
do
not believe
in Judaea;
and
that
my
ministry
which [I
have]
for
Jerusalem
may
be
acceptable
to

order
that

may
come
to

in

by

you.
\VS{7}Salute
Andronicus
and
Junias,
my kinsmen
and fellow-captives,
who
are
of note
among
the
apostles;
who
were
also
in
Christ
before
me.
\VS{8}Salute Amplias,
my
beloved
in
the
Lord.
\VS{9}Salute
Urbanus,
our fellow-workman
in
Christ,
and
Stachys,
my
beloved.
\VS{10}Salute
Apelles,
approved
in
Christ. Salute
those
who
belong
to
Aristobulus.
\VS{11}Salute
Herodion,
my kinsman. Salute
those
who
belong
to
Narcissus,
who
are
in [the]
Lord.
\VS{12}Salute
Tryphaena
and
Tryphosa,
who labour
in [the]
Lord. Salute
Persis,
the
beloved,

and
the

with

and

and
all
the
saints
with
them.
\VS{16}Salute
one
another
with
a
holy
kiss.
All
the assemblies
of
Christ salute
you.
\VS{17}But
I beseech
you,
brethren,
to
consider
those
who create divisions
and occasions
of falling,
contrary
to
the doctrine
which
{\BD{ye}}
have learnt,
and
turn
away
from
them.
\VS{18}For
such
serve
not
our
Lord
Christ,
but
their
own
belly,
and
by good
words
and fair speeches
deceive
the
hearts
of
the
unsuspecting.
\VS{19}For
your
obedience
has
reached
to
all.
I
rejoice
therefore
as
it regards
you;
but
I
wish
you
to
be
wise [as]
to
that
which
is
good,
and simple [as]
to
evil.
\VS{20}But
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 16:20 }
Elohim}God
of
peace
shall bruise
Satan
under
your
feet
shortly.
The
grace
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ [be]
with
you.
\VS{21}Timotheus,
my fellow-workman,
and
Lucius,
and
Jason,
and
Sosipater,
my kinsmen, salute
you.
\VS{22}I
Tertius,
who
have
written
this epistle, salute
you
in [the]
Lord.
\VS{23}Gaius,
my
host
and
of
the
whole
assembly, salutes
you.
Erastus,
the
steward
of
the
city, salutes
you,
and
the
brother
Quartus.
\VS{24}The
grace
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ [be]
with
you
all.
Amen.
\VS{25}Now
to
him
that
is
able
to
establish
you,
according
to
my glad tidings
and
the
preaching
of
Jesus
Christ,
according
to [the]
revelation
of [the]
mystery,
as
to
which silence
has
been
kept
in [the]
times
of
the
ages,
\VS{26}but [which]
has
now
been
made
manifest,
and
by
prophetic
scriptures,
according
to
commandment
of
the
eternal
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 16:26 }
Elohim}God,
made
known
for
obedience
of
faith
to
all
the
nations —
\VS{27}[the]
only
wise
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 16:27 }
Elohim}God,
through
Jesus
Christ,
to
whom
be
glory
for
ever.
Amen.
