ईश्वरो निजपुत्रमधि यं सुसंवादं भविष्यद्वादिभि र्धर्म्मग्रन्थे प्रतिश्रुतवान् तं सुसंवादं प्रचारयितुं पृथक्कृत आहूतः प्रेरितश्च प्रभो र्यीशुख्रीष्टस्य सेवको यः पौलः

īśvaro nijaputramadhi yaṁ susaṁvādaṁ bhaviṣyadvādibhi rdharmmagranthe pratiśrutavān taṁ susaṁvādaṁ pracārayituṁ pṛthakkṛta āhūtaḥ preritaśca prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya sevako yaḥ paulaḥ

Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2

स रोमानगरस्थान् ईश्वरप्रियान् आहूतांश्च पवित्रलोकान् प्रति पत्रं लिखति।

sa romānagarasthān īśvarapriyān āhūtāṁśca pavitralokān prati patraṁ likhati|

(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
3

अस्माकं स प्रभु र्यीशुः ख्रीष्टः शारीरिकसम्बन्धेन दायूदो वंशोद्भवः

asmākaṁ sa prabhu ryīśuḥ khrīṣṭaḥ śārīrikasambandhena dāyūdo vaṁśodbhavaḥ

Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4

पवित्रस्यात्मनः सम्बन्धेन चेश्वरस्य प्रभाववान् पुत्र इति श्मशानात् तस्योत्थानेन प्रतिपन्नं।

pavitrasyātmanaḥ sambandhena ceśvarasya prabhāvavān putra iti śmaśānāt tasyotthānena pratipannaṁ|

And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
5

अपरं येषां मध्ये यीशुना ख्रीष्टेन यूयमप्याहूतास्ते ऽन्यदेशीयलोकास्तस्य नाम्नि विश्वस्य निदेशग्राहिणो यथा भवन्ति

aparaṁ yeṣāṁ madhye yīśunā khrīṣṭena yūyamapyāhūtāste 'nyadeśīyalokāstasya nāmni viśvasya nideśagrāhiṇo yathā bhavanti

By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6

तदभिप्रायेण वयं तस्माद् अनुग्रहं प्रेरितत्वपदञ्च प्राप्ताः।

tadabhiprāyeṇa vayaṁ tasmād anugrahaṁ preritatvapadañca prāptāḥ|

Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
7

तातेनास्माकम् ईश्वरेण प्रभुणा यीशुख्रीष्टेन च युष्मभ्यम् अनुग्रहः शान्तिश्च प्रदीयेतां।

tātenāsmākam īśvareṇa prabhuṇā yīśukhrīṣṭena ca yuṣmabhyam anugrahaḥ śāntiśca pradīyetāṁ|

To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8

प्रथमतः सर्व्वस्मिन् जगति युष्माकं विश्वासस्य प्रकाशितत्वाद् अहं युष्माकं सर्व्वेषां निमित्तं यीशुख्रीष्टस्य नाम गृह्लन् ईश्वरस्य धन्यवादं करोमि।

prathamataḥ sarvvasmin jagati yuṣmākaṁ viśvāsasya prakāśitatvād ahaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sarvveṣāṁ nimittaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasya nāma gṛhlan īśvarasya dhanyavādaṁ karomi|

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9

अपरम् ईश्वरस्य प्रसादाद् बहुकालात् परं साम्प्रतं युष्माकं समीपं यातुं कथमपि यत् सुयोगं प्राप्नोमि, एतदर्थं निरन्तरं नामान्युच्चारयन् निजासु सर्व्वप्रार्थनासु सर्व्वदा निवेदयामि,

aparam īśvarasya prasādād bahukālāt paraṁ sāmprataṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ yātuṁ kathamapi yat suyogaṁ prāpnomi, etadarthaṁ nirantaraṁ nāmānyuccārayan nijāsu sarvvaprārthanāsu sarvvadā nivedayāmi,

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;
10

एतस्मिन् यमहं तत्पुत्रीयसुसंवादप्रचारणेन मनसा परिचरामि स ईश्वरो मम साक्षी विद्यते।

etasmin yamahaṁ tatputrīyasusaṁvādapracāraṇena manasā paricarāmi sa īśvaro mama sākṣī vidyate|

Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
11

यतो युष्माकं मम च विश्वासेन वयम् उभये यथा शान्तियुक्ता भवाम इति कारणाद्

yato yuṣmākaṁ mama ca viśvāsena vayam ubhaye yathā śāntiyuktā bhavāma iti kāraṇād

For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
12

युष्माकं स्थैर्य्यकरणार्थं युष्मभ्यं किञ्चित्परमार्थदानदानाय युष्मान् साक्षात् कर्त्तुं मदीया वाञ्छा।

yuṣmākaṁ sthairyyakaraṇārthaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ kiñcitparamārthadānadānāya yuṣmān sākṣāt karttuṁ madīyā vāñchā|

That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
13

हे भ्रातृगण भिन्नदेशीयलोकानां मध्ये यद्वत् तद्वद् युष्माकं मध्येपि यथा फलं भुञ्जे तदभिप्रायेण मुहुर्मुहु र्युष्माकं समीपं गन्तुम् उद्यतोऽहं किन्तु यावद् अद्य तस्मिन् गमने मम विघ्नो जात इति यूयं यद् अज्ञातास्तिष्ठथ तदहम् उचितं न बुध्ये।

he bhrātṛgaṇa bhinnadeśīyalokānāṁ madhye yadvat tadvad yuṣmākaṁ madhyepi yathā phalaṁ bhuñje tadabhiprāyeṇa muhurmuhu ryuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ gantum udyato'haṁ kintu yāvad adya tasmin gamane mama vighno jāta iti yūyaṁ yad ajñātāstiṣṭhatha tadaham ucitaṁ na budhye|

Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
14

अहं सभ्यासभ्यानां विद्वदविद्वताञ्च सर्व्वेषाम् ऋणी विद्ये।

ahaṁ sabhyāsabhyānāṁ vidvadavidvatāñca sarvveṣām ṛṇī vidye|

I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
15

अतएव रोमानिवासिनां युष्माकं समीपेऽपि यथाशक्ति सुसंवादं प्रचारयितुम् अहम् उद्यतोस्मि।

ataeva romānivāsināṁ yuṣmākaṁ samīpe'pi yathāśakti susaṁvādaṁ pracārayitum aham udyatosmi|

So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
16

यतः ख्रीष्टस्य सुसंवादो मम लज्जास्पदं नहि स ईश्वरस्य शक्तिस्वरूपः सन् आ यिहूदीयेभ्यो ऽन्यजातीयान् यावत् सर्व्वजातीयानां मध्ये यः कश्चिद् तत्र विश्वसिति तस्यैव त्राणं जनयति।

yataḥ khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādo mama lajjāspadaṁ nahi sa īśvarasya śaktisvarūpaḥ san ā yihūdīyebhyo 'nyajātīyān yāvat sarvvajātīyānāṁ madhye yaḥ kaścid tatra viśvasiti tasyaiva trāṇaṁ janayati|

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17

यतः प्रत्ययस्य समपरिमाणम् ईश्वरदत्तं पुण्यं तत्सुसंवादे प्रकाशते। तदधि धर्म्मपुस्तकेपि लिखितमिदं "पुण्यवान् जनो विश्वासेन जीविष्यति"।

yataḥ pratyayasya samaparimāṇam īśvaradattaṁ puṇyaṁ tatsusaṁvāde prakāśate| tadadhi dharmmapustakepi likhitamidaṁ "puṇyavān jano viśvāsena jīviṣyati"|

For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18

अतएव ये मानवाः पापकर्म्मणा सत्यतां रुन्धन्ति तेषां सर्व्वस्य दुराचरणस्याधर्म्मस्य च विरुद्धं स्वर्गाद् ईश्वरस्य कोपः प्रकाशते।

ataeva ye mānavāḥ pāpakarmmaṇā satyatāṁ rundhanti teṣāṁ sarvvasya durācaraṇasyādharmmasya ca viruddhaṁ svargād īśvarasya kopaḥ prakāśate|

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19

यत ईश्वरमधि यद्यद् ज्ञेयं तद् ईश्वरः स्वयं तान् प्रति प्रकाशितवान् तस्मात् तेषाम् अगोचरं नहि।

yata īśvaramadhi yadyad jñeyaṁ tad īśvaraḥ svayaṁ tān prati prakāśitavān tasmāt teṣām agocaraṁ nahi|

Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20

फलतस्तस्यानन्तशक्तीश्वरत्वादीन्यदृश्यान्यपि सृष्टिकालम् आरभ्य कर्म्मसु प्रकाशमानानि दृश्यन्ते तस्मात् तेषां दोषप्रक्षालनस्य पन्था नास्ति।

phalatastasyānantaśaktīśvaratvādīnyadṛśyānyapi sṛṣṭikālam ārabhya karmmasu prakāśamānāni dṛśyante tasmāt teṣāṁ doṣaprakṣālanasya panthā nāsti|

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21

अपरम् ईश्वरं ज्ञात्वापि ते तम् ईश्वरज्ञानेन नाद्रियन्त कृतज्ञा वा न जाताः; तस्मात् तेषां सर्व्वे तर्का विफलीभूताः, अपरञ्च तेषां विवेकशून्यानि मनांसि तिमिरे मग्नानि।

aparam īśvaraṁ jñātvāpi te tam īśvarajñānena nādriyanta kṛtajñā vā na jātāḥ; tasmāt teṣāṁ sarvve tarkā viphalībhūtāḥ, aparañca teṣāṁ vivekaśūnyāni manāṁsi timire magnāni|

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22

ते स्वान् ज्ञानिनो ज्ञात्वा ज्ञानहीना अभवन्

te svān jñānino jñātvā jñānahīnā abhavan

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23

अनश्वरस्येश्वरस्य गौरवं विहाय नश्वरमनुष्यपशुपक्ष्युरोगामिप्रभृतेराकृतिविशिष्टप्रतिमास्तैराश्रिताः।

anaśvarasyeśvarasya gauravaṁ vihāya naśvaramanuṣyapaśupakṣyurogāmiprabhṛterākṛtiviśiṣṭapratimāstairāśritāḥ|

And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24

इत्थं त ईश्वरस्य सत्यतां विहाय मृषामतम् आश्रितवन्तः सच्चिदानन्दं सृष्टिकर्त्तारं त्यक्त्वा सृष्टवस्तुनः पूजां सेवाञ्च कृतवन्तः;

itthaṁ ta īśvarasya satyatāṁ vihāya mṛṣāmatam āśritavantaḥ saccidānandaṁ sṛṣṭikarttāraṁ tyaktvā sṛṣṭavastunaḥ pūjāṁ sevāñca kṛtavantaḥ;

Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25

इति हेतोरीश्वरस्तान् कुक्रियायां समर्प्य निजनिजकुचिन्ताभिलाषाभ्यां स्वं स्वं शरीरं परस्परम् अपमानितं कर्त्तुम् अददात्।

iti hetorīśvarastān kukriyāyāṁ samarpya nijanijakucintābhilāṣābhyāṁ svaṁ svaṁ śarīraṁ parasparam apamānitaṁ karttum adadāt|

Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26

ईश्वरेण तेषु क्वभिलाषे समर्पितेषु तेषां योषितः स्वाभाविकाचरणम् अपहाय विपरीतकृत्ये प्रावर्त्तन्त;

īśvareṇa teṣu kvabhilāṣe samarpiteṣu teṣāṁ yoṣitaḥ svābhāvikācaraṇam apahāya viparītakṛtye prāvarttanta;

For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27

तथा पुरुषा अपि स्वाभाविकयोषित्सङ्गमं विहाय परस्परं कामकृशानुना दग्धाः सन्तः पुमांसः पुंभिः साकं कुकृत्ये समासज्य निजनिजभ्रान्तेः समुचितं फलम् अलभन्त।

tathā puruṣā api svābhāvikayoṣitsaṅgamaṁ vihāya parasparaṁ kāmakṛśānunā dagdhāḥ santaḥ pumāṁsaḥ puṁbhiḥ sākaṁ kukṛtye samāsajya nijanijabhrānteḥ samucitaṁ phalam alabhanta|

And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28

ते स्वेषां मनःस्वीश्वराय स्थानं दातुम् अनिच्छुकास्ततो हेतोरीश्वरस्तान् प्रति दुष्टमनस्कत्वम् अविहितक्रियत्वञ्च दत्तवान्।

te sveṣāṁ manaḥsvīśvarāya sthānaṁ dātum anicchukāstato hetorīśvarastān prati duṣṭamanaskatvam avihitakriyatvañca dattavān|

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29

अतएव ते सर्व्वे ऽन्यायो व्यभिचारो दुष्टत्वं लोभो जिघांसा ईर्ष्या वधो विवादश्चातुरी कुमतिरित्यादिभि र्दुष्कर्म्मभिः परिपूर्णाः सन्तः

ataeva te sarvve 'nyāyo vyabhicāro duṣṭatvaṁ lobho jighāṁsā īrṣyā vadho vivādaścāturī kumatirityādibhi rduṣkarmmabhiḥ paripūrṇāḥ santaḥ

Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30

कर्णेजपा अपवादिन ईश्वरद्वेषका हिंसका अहङ्कारिण आत्मश्लाघिनः कुकर्म्मोत्पादकाः पित्रोराज्ञालङ्घका

karṇejapā apavādina īśvaradveṣakā hiṁsakā ahaṅkāriṇa ātmaślāghinaḥ kukarmmotpādakāḥ pitrorājñālaṅghakā

Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31

अविचारका नियमलङ्घिनः स्नेहरहिता अतिद्वेषिणो निर्दयाश्च जाताः।

avicārakā niyamalaṅghinaḥ sneharahitā atidveṣiṇo nirdayāśca jātāḥ|

Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32

ये जना एतादृशं कर्म्म कुर्व्वन्ति तएव मृतियोग्या ईश्वरस्य विचारमीदृशं ज्ञात्वापि त एतादृशं कर्म्म स्वयं कुर्व्वन्ति केवलमिति नहि किन्तु तादृशकर्म्मकारिषु लोकेष्वपि प्रीयन्ते।

ye janā etādṛśaṁ karmma kurvvanti taeva mṛtiyogyā īśvarasya vicāramīdṛśaṁ jñātvāpi ta etādṛśaṁ karmma svayaṁ kurvvanti kevalamiti nahi kintu tādṛśakarmmakāriṣu lokeṣvapi prīyante|

Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
