第一章
问候
1耶稣基督的仆人保罗,奉召为使徒,特派传 神的福音。 2这福音是 神从前藉众先知在圣经上所应许的, 3论到他儿子我主耶稣基督,按肉体说,是从大卫后裔生的; 4按圣善的灵说,因从死里复活,以大能显明是 神的儿子。 5我们从他受了恩惠并使徒的职分,在万国之中叫人为他的名信服真道; 6其中也有你们这蒙召属耶稣基督的人。 7我写信给你们在罗马、为 神所爱、奉召作圣徒的众人。愿恩惠、平安从我们的父 神并主耶稣基督归与你们!
Greetings
1Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God— 2the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures 3regarding his Son, who as to his earthly life was a descendant of David, 4and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord. 5Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith for his name’s sake. 6And you also are among those Gentiles who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.7To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be his holy people: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

保罗切望去罗马探访
8第一,我靠着耶稣基督,为你们众人感谢我的 神,因你们的信德传遍了天下。 9我在他儿子福音上,用心灵所侍奉的 神可以见证,我怎样不住地提到你们; 10在祷告之间常常恳求,或者照 神的旨意,终能得平坦的道路往你们那里去。 11因为我切切地想见你们,要把些属灵的恩赐分给你们,使你们可以坚固; 12这样,我在你们中间,因你与我彼此的信心,就可以同得安慰。 13弟兄们,我不愿意你们不知道,我屡次定意往你们那里去,要在你们中间得些果子,如同在其余的外邦人中一样;只是到如今仍有阻隔。 14无论是希腊人、化外人、聪明人、愚拙人,我都欠他们的债, 15所以情愿尽我的力量,将福音也传给你们在罗马的人。福音是 神的大能
Paul’s Longing to Visit Rome
8First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world. 9God, whom I serve in my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you 10in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God’s will the way may be opened for me to come to you.11I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong— 12that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith. 13I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that I planned many times to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.14I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish. 15That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.

I am not ashamed of the gospel
16For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. 17For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”

People are without excuse
18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
无可推诿
18原来, 神的忿怒,从天上显明在一切不虔不义的人身上,就是那些行不义阻挡真理的人。 19 神的事情,人所能知道的,原显明在人心里,因为 神已经给他们显明。 20自从造天地以来, 神的永能和 神性是明明可知的,虽是眼不能见,但藉着所造之物就可以晓得,叫人无可推诿。 21因为,他们虽然知道 神,却不当作 神荣耀他,也不感谢他。他们的思念变为虚妄,无知的心就昏暗了。 22自称为聪明,反成了愚拙, 23将不能朽坏之 神的荣耀变为偶像,仿佛必朽坏的人和飞禽、走兽、昆虫的样式。

God’s Wrath Against Sinful Humanity
24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.28Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
神对人类的忿怒
24所以, 神任凭他们逞着心里的情欲行污秽的事,以致彼此玷辱自己的身体。 25他们将 神的真实变为虚谎,去敬拜侍奉受造之物,不敬奉那造物的主。主乃是可称颂的,直到永远。阿们! 26因此, 神任凭他们放纵可羞耻的情欲。他们的女人把顺性的用处变为逆性的用处; 27男人也是如此,弃了女人顺性的用处,欲火攻心,彼此贪恋,男和男行可羞耻的事,就在自己身上受这妄为当得的报应。 28他们既然故意不认识 神, 神就任凭他们存邪僻的心,行那些不合理的事; 29装满了各样不义、邪恶、贪婪、恶毒(或作“阴毒”);满心是嫉妒、凶杀、争竞、诡诈、毒恨; 30又是谗毁的、背后说人的、怨恨 神的(或作“被 神所憎恶的”)、侮慢人的、狂傲的、自夸的、捏造恶事的、违背父母的、 31无知的、背约的、无亲情的、不怜悯人的。 32他们虽知道 神判定行这样事的人是当死的,然而他们不但自己去行,还喜欢别人去行。
