Romans 1:15-17
International Children’s Bible
15 That is why I want so much to preach the Good News to you in Rome.
16 I am not ashamed of the Good News. It is the power God uses to save everyone who believes—to save the Jews first, and then to save the non-Jews. 17 The Good News shows how God makes people right with himself. God’s way of making people right with him begins and ends with faith. As the Scripture says, “The person who is made right with God by faith will live forever.”[a]

15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.(A)
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel,(B) because it is the power of God(C) that brings salvation to everyone who believes:(D) first to the Jew,(E) then to the Gentile.(F) 17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed(G)—a righteousness that is by faith(H) from first to last,[a] just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”[b](I)
