Romans 1:4-11

4marked out Son of 1God in power, according to [the] Spirit of holiness, by resurrection of [the] dead) Jesus Christ our Lord;

5by whom we have received grace and apostleship in behalf of his name, for obedience of faith among all the nations,

6among whom are ye also [the] called of Jesus Christ:

7to all that are in Rome, beloved of 2God, called saints: Grace to you and peace from 3God our Father and [our] Lord Jesus Christ.

8First, I thank my 4God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed in the whole world.

9For 5God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the glad tidings of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,

10always beseeching at my prayers, if any way now at least I may be prospered by the will of 6God to come to you.

11For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to establish you;
