Paul just mentioned his obligation to preach the gospel to essentially all people. He is in fact eager to preach. He is not ashamed of it, explaining it as the power of God. He also adds this notion of God's righteousness and of the righteous who live by faith.
There is a revealing of God's wrath. God's wrath is against ungodly and unrighteous people. In addition, they suppress the truth. The truth they suppress is about God, for they go about believing and worshiping false gods instead of the one true God. It's not as if they didn't see God, but his attributes have been clearly perceived. Since it has been made clear to them, they don't have an excuse for their actions.
