[1:1] Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,
[1:2] which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
[1:3] concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh
[1:4] and was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
[1:5] through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations,
[1:6] including you who are called to belong to Jesus Christ,
[1:7] To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
