Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.

As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.

Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.

The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth,(as there be gods many, and lords many,)

And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?

Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
