Romans 1:15

Romans 1:15

13 Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but ^awas hindered until now), that I might have some ^bfruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles.

14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to wise and to unwise.

15 So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also.

The Just Live by Faith

16 For ^aI am not ashamed of the gospel¹ of Christ, for ^bit is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, ^cfor the Jew first and also for the Greek.

17 For ^ain it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, ^b“The just shall live by faith.”

God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness

18 ^aFor the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and ^bunrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

19 because ^awhat may be known of God is manifest² in them, for ^bGod has shown it to them.

So as much as in me is I am ready (outw to kat eme proqumon). Literally, "Thus the according to me affair is ready" (proqumov, old adjective, pro, qumov). It is an awkward idiom like to ec umwn in Romans 12:18. The plural ta kat eme we find in Philippians 1:12; Colossians 4:7; Ephesians 6:21.
