Jesus in Romans

The Berean Standard Bible is shown; switch to the King James or American Standard Version.

1. 1:1

   Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God—

2. 1:3

   regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh,

3. 1:4

   and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

4. 1:6

   And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

5. 1:7

   To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

6. 1:8

   First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed all over the world.

7. 1:9

   God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you

8. 1:16

   I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.

9. 2:16

   on the day when God will judge men’s secrets through Christ Jesus, as proclaimed by my gospel.

10. 3:22

    And this righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no distinction,

11. 3:24

    and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.

12. 3:26

    He did this to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and to justify the one who has faith in Jesus.

13. 4:8

    Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.”

14. 4:24

    but also for us, to whom righteousness will be credited—for us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.

15. 5:1

    Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

16. 5:6

    For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.

17. 5:8

    But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

18. 5:10

    For if, when we were enemies of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life!

19. 5:11

    Not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

20. 5:15

    But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!

21. 5:17

    For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

22. 5:21

    so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

23. 6:3

    Or aren’t you aware that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?

24. 6:4

    We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life.

25. 6:8

    Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.

26. 6:9

    For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, He cannot die again; death no longer has dominion over Him.

27. 6:11

    So you too must count yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

28. 6:23

    For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

29. 7:4

    Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.

30. 7:25

    Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

31. 8:1

    Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

32. 8:2

    For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death.

33. 8:3

    For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,

34. 8:9

    You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.

35. 8:10

    But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.

36. 8:11

    And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you.

37. 8:17

    And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him.

38. 8:29

    For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.

39. 8:32

    He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

40. 8:34

    Who is there to condemn us? For Christ Jesus, who died, and more than that was raised to life, is at the right hand of God—and He is interceding for us.

41. 8:35

    Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?

42. 8:39

    neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

43. 9:1

    I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.

44. 9:3

    For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,

45. 9:5

    Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! Amen.

46. 9:29

    It is just as Isaiah foretold: “Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.”

47. 10:4

    For Christ is the end of the law, to bring righteousness to everyone who believes.

48. 10:6

    But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)

49. 10:7

    or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”

50. 10:9

    that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

51. 10:12

    For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,

52. 10:13

    for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

53. 10:16

    But not all of them welcomed the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”

54. 11:3

    “Lord, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well”?

55. 11:34

    “Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been His counselor?”

56. 12:5

    so in Christ we who are many are one body, and each member belongs to one another.

57. 12:11

    Do not let your zeal subside; keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.

58. 12:19

    Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.”

59. 13:14

    Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.

60. 14:6

    He who observes a special day does so to the Lord; he who eats does so to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.

61. 14:8

    If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.

62. 14:9

    For this reason Christ died and returned to life, that He might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.

63. 14:10

    Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.

64. 14:11

    It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.”

65. 14:14

    I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.

66. 14:15

    If your brother is distressed by what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother, for whom Christ died.

67. 14:18

    For whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.

68. 15:3

    For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me.”

69. 15:5

    Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,

70. 15:6

    so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

71. 15:7

    Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring glory to God.

72. 15:8

    For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs,

73. 15:11

    And again: “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and extol Him, all you peoples.”

74. 15:16

    to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

75. 15:17

    Therefore I exult in Christ Jesus in my service to God.

76. 15:18

    I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,

77. 15:19

    by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.

78. 15:20

    In this way I have aspired to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.

79. 15:29

    I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.

80. 15:30

    Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.

81. 16:2

    Welcome her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and assist her with anything she may need from you. For she has been a great help to many people, including me.

82. 16:3

    Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,

83. 16:5

    Greet also the church that meets at their house. Greet my beloved Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.

84. 16:7

    Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow countrymen and fellow prisoners. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.

85. 16:8

    Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord.

86. 16:9

    Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys.

87. 16:10

    Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the household of Aristobulus.

88. 16:11

    Greet Herodion, my fellow countryman. Greet those from the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord.

89. 16:12

    Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, women who have worked hard in the Lord. Greet my beloved Persis, who has worked very hard in the Lord.

90. 16:13

    Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother, who has been a mother to me as well.

91. 16:16

    Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send you greetings.

92. 16:18

    For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.

93. 16:20

    The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

94. 16:22

    I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.

95. 16:24

    The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

96. 16:25

    Now to Him who is able to strengthen you by my gospel and by the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery concealed for ages past

97. 16:27

    to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
