1 I, Paul, am writing this letter. I serve Christ Jesus. I have been appointed to be an apostle. God set me apart to tell others his good news.

2 He promised the good news long ago. He announced it through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures.
2 the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures
3 The good news is about God's Son. As a human being, the Son of God belonged to King David's family line.
3 regarding his Son, who as to his earthly life was a descendant of David,
4 By the power of the Holy Spirit, he was appointed to be the mighty Son of God because he rose from the dead. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.
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 I received God's grace because of what Jesus did so that I could bring glory to him. He made me an apostle to all those who aren't Jews. I must invite them to have faith in God and obey him.
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 You also are among those who are appointed to belong to Jesus Christ.
6 And you also are among those Gentiles who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.
