kubo bonke abaseRoma, abathandekayo bakaNkulunkulu, ababizelwe ukuba ngabangcwele: Makube kini umusa nokuthula okuvela kuNkulunkulu uBaba wethu naseNkosini uJesu Kristu.
Kuqala, ngibonga uNkulunkulu wami ngoJesu Kristu ngani nonke, ngokuba ukukholwa kwenu kukhulunywa ngakho emhlabeni wonke.
Ngokuba uNkulunkulu engimkhonza ngomoya wami evangelini leNdodana yakhe ungufakazi wami wokuthi angiphezi ukunikhumbula emikhulekweni yami;

Kepha angithandi ukuba ningazi, bazalwane, ukuthi ngazimisela kaningi ukuza kini, ngavinjwa kuze kube manje, ukuze ngibe nesithelo naphakathi kwenu, nanjengakwabanye abezizwe.
Ngilomlandu kumaGriki lakwabezizwe; kwabahlakaniphileyo nakwabangahlakaniphile.
Ngakho-ke njengoba ngikimi, ngizimisele ukushumayela ivangeli nakinina baseRoma.
Ngokuba anginamahloni ngevangeli likaKristu, ngokuba lingamandla kaNkulunkulu kube yinsindiso kulowo nalowo okholwayo; kumJuda kuqala, nakumGreki futhi.
Ngokuba ukulunga kukaNkulunkulu kwembulwa kulo, kuvela ekukholweni kuye ekukholweni, njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Olungileyo uyakuphila ngokukholwa.
