Romans 1:7-12 (Epistle)
- 7
- To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
- 8
- First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
- 9
- For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers,
- 10
- making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you.
- 11
- For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established –
- 12
- that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
