to all that be at Rome, darlings [or the beloved] of God, and called holy, grace [be] to you, and peace of God our Father, and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ye most dear brethren, not defending, [or avenging], yourselves, but give ye place to wrath [or ire]; for it is written, The Lord saith, To me vengeance, and I shall yield.
Therefore I sent to you Timothy, which is my most dearworthy son, and faithful in the Lord, which shall teach you my ways, that be in Christ Jesus; as I teach everywhere in each church.
