This translation is intended to give a clear understanding of the original language, taking into consideration all available manuscripts to reproduce the original letter Paul wrote to Rome. The original language should always be considered the only authority by which each word, phrase, and all other parts of speech are based upon.

Or do I seek to please men? For if yet I please men, I am not perhaps a servant belonging to Christ. ^1:11 Indeed, I make known to you, brethren, the gospel, the good news brought by me, that it is not according to man. ^1:12 For I did not receive it from man, nor was […]
