Chap. I. The foundation of his Apostleship being laid, 8 he highly commendeth the Romanes, and protesteth his affection tovvardes them. and so c&obar;ming to the matter, saith, our Christian Catholike doctrine (that teacheth al to beleeue) to be the vvay to saluation: 15 because the Gentiles (first of al) could not be saued by their Philosophie, vvhereby they knevv God, for so much as they did not serue him, but Idolse be therfore iustly permitting them to fall into al kind of most damnable sinne.

1    notePavl the seruant of Iesvs Christ, called to be an Apostle, note separated into the Gospel of God,

2   vvhich before he had promised by his Prophets in the holy Scriptures,

3   of his sonne, (vvho vvas made to him of the seede of Dauid according to the flesh,

4   vvho vvas predestinate the sonne of God in povver, according to the spirit of sanctification, by the resurrecti&obar; of our Lord Iesvs Christ from the dead,

5   by vvhom vve haue receiued grace and Apostleship note note for obedience to the faith note in al Nations for the name of him,

6   among vvhom are you also the called of Iesvs Christ:) &cross4;

7   to al that are at Rome the beloued of God, called to be saincts. 09Q0946Grace to you and peace from God our father, and our Lord Iesvs Christ.

8   First I giue thankes to my God through Iesvs Christ for al you, because09Q0947 your faith is renoumed in the vvhole vvorld.

9   For God is my vvitnes, note vvhom I serue09Q0948 in my spirit in the Gospel of his Sonne, that note vvithout intermission I make09Q0949 a memorie of you

10   alvvaies in my praiers, beseeching, if by any meanes I may sometime at the length haue a prosperous iourney by the vvil of God, to come vnto you.

-- --

11   For I desire to see you, that I may imparte vnto you some spiritual grace, to note confirme you:

12   that is to say, to be comforted together in you by that vvhich is c&obar;mon to vs both, your faith and mine.

13   And I vvil not haue you ignorant (brethren) that I haue often purposed to come vnto you (and haue been staied hitherto) that I may haue some fruite in you, as also in the other Gentiles.

14   To the Greekes and the Barbarous, to the vvise and the vnvvise I am detter.

15   so (as much as is in me) I am ready09Q0950 to euangelize to you also that are at Rome.

16   For I am not ashamed of the Gospel. For it is the povver of God, vnto saluation to euery one that beleeueth, to the Ievve first and to the Greeke.

17   For note the iustice of God is reuealed therein by faith into faith: as it is vvritten: And the iust 09Q0951 liueth by faith. note

18   For the vvrath of God from heauen09Q0952 is reuealed, vpon al impietie and iniustice of those men that deteine the veritie of God in iniustice:

19   because, that of God vvhich is knovv&ebar;, is manifest in them. For God hath manifested it vnto them.

20   For his inuisible things, from the creation of the vvorld are seen, being vnderstoode by those things that are made: his eternal povver also & Diuinitie: so that they are inexcusable.

21   Because, vvhereas they knevve God, they haue not glorified him as God, or giu&ebar; thankes: but are become vaine in their cogitations, and their folish hart hath been darkened.

22   for, saying them selues to be vvise, they became fooles.

23   And they changed the glorie of the incorruptible God, into a note similitude of the image of a corruptible man, and of foules and foure-footed beastes and of them that creepe.

24   (For the vvhich cause God note hath deliuered them vp vnto the desires of their hart, into vncleannesse, for to abuse their owne bodies among them selues ignominiously.)

25   vvho haue changed the veritie of God into lying: and haue vvorshipped & note serued the creature rather then the creator, vvho is blessed for euer. Amen.

26   Therfore09Q0953 God hath deliuered them into passions of ignominie. For their vvomen haue changed the natural vse, into that vse that is contrarie to nature.

27   And in like maner the men also, leauing the natural vse of the vvoman, haue burned in their desires one tovvard an other, men vpon men vvorking turpitude, & the revvard of their errour (vvhich they should) receauing in them selues.

28   And as

-- --

they liked not to haue God in knovvledge: God deliuered them vp into a reprobate sense: to doe those things that are not conuenient:

29   replenished vvith al iniquitie, malice, fornication, auarice, vvickednes, ful of enuie, murder, contention, guile, malignitie, vvhisperers,

30   detractours, odible to God, contumelious, proude, hautie, inuentours of euil things, disobedient to parents,

31   folish, dissolute, vvithout affection, vvithout fidelitie, vvithout mercie.

32   Who vvhereas they knevv the iustice of God, did not vnderstand that they vvhich doe such things, are09Q0954 vvorthie of death: not only they that doe them, but they also that consent to the doers.
