1. Sha’ul, a servant of יהושע Messiah, a called emissary, separated to the Good News of Elohim,
2. which He promised before through His prophets in the Set-apart Scriptures,
3. concerning His Son, who came of the seed of Dawiḏ according to the flesh,
4. who was designated Son of Elohim with power, according to the Set-apart Spirit, by the resurrection from the dead: יהושע Messiah, the Master of us,
5. through whom we have received favour and office of the emissary for belief-obedience among all the nations on behalf of His Name,
6. among whom you also are the called ones of יהושע Messiah.
7. To all who are in Rome, beloved of Elohim, called, set-apart ones: Favour to you and peace from Elohim our Father and the Master יהושע Messiah.
8. First, I truly thank my Elohim through יהושע Messiah for you all, that your belief is spoken of in all the world.
9. For Elohim is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the Good News of His Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,
10. always asking in my prayers, if at all possible, I shall be blessed by the desire of Elohim, to come to you.
11. For I long to see you, so as to impart some spiritual gift to you, for you to be established,
12. and that is, to be encouraged together among you, each by the other’s belief – both yours and mine.
13. And I do not wish you to be unaware, brothers, that I often purposed to come to you, but was hindered until now, in order to have some fruit among you, as also among the other gentiles.
