GNT

NIV

1 From Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus and an apostle chosen and called by God to preach his Good News.
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God—
2 The Good News was promised long ago by God through his prophets, as written in the Holy Scriptures.
2 the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures
3 It is about his Son, our Lord Jesus Christ: as to his humanity, he was born a descendant of David;
3 regarding his Son, who as to his earthly life was a descendant of David,
4 as to his divine holiness, he was shown with great power to be the Son of God by being raised from death.
4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.
5 Through him God gave me the privilege of being an apostle for the sake of Christ, in order to lead people of all nations to believe and obey.
5 Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith for his name’s sake.
6 This also includes you who are in Rome, whom God has called to belong to Jesus Christ.
6 And you also are among those Gentiles who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.
