< Romans 5 >
1 Therefore having been justified on the principle of faith, we have peace towards God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Therefore being accepted as righteous through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
2 by whom we have also access by faith into this favour in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.
through whom also we have had admission into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in the hope of the glory which God will confer.
3 And not only [that], but we also boast in tribulations, knowing that tribulation works endurance;
And not only so, but we rejoice in afflictions also, knowing that affliction produceth endurance,
4 and endurance, experience; and experience, hope;
and endurance proof [[of faith]], and proof [[of faith giveth]] hope;
5 and hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by [the] Holy Spirit which has been given to us:
and hope will not disappoint us; because the love of God hath been shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which hath been given to us.
6 for we being still without strength, in [the] due time Christ has died for [the] ungodly.
For while we were yet without strength, in due season Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for [the] just [man] will one die, for perhaps for [the] good [man] some one might also dare to die;
Now hardly for a righteous man will one die; perhaps, however, for a benefactor one might even dare to die.
8 but God commends his love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much rather therefore, having been now justified in [the power of] his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath.
Much more then, being now accepted as righteous through his blood, we shall be saved through him from the [[coming]] wrath.
10 For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much rather, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in [the power of] his life.
For if while enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more having been reconciled shall we be saved by his life;
11 And not only [that], but [we are] making our boast in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we have received the reconciliation.
and not this only, but also having joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 For this [cause], even as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death; and thus death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
So then as through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin death, and thus [[death]] came through unto all men, because all sinned—
13 (for until law sin was in [the] world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law;
(for all the time before the Law sin was in the world; but sin is not set to one's account when there is no law.
14 but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even upon those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is [the] figure of him to come.
Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the manner in which Adam transgressed; who is a type of him who was to come.—
15 But [shall] not the act of favour [be] as the offence? For if by the offence of one the many have died, much rather has the grace of God, and the free gift in grace, which [is] by the one man Jesus Christ, abounded unto the many.
But the free gift was not as the transgression. For if through the offence of the one the many died, much more hath the grace of God, and the gift which is by the grace of the one man Jesus Christ, abounded to the many.
16 And [shall] not as by one that has sinned [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification.
And the free gift is not like what happened through one man who sinned. For sentence of condemnation followed one offence; but the free gift is a justification after many offences.
17 For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much rather shall those who receive the abundance of grace, and of the free gift of righteousness, reign in life by the one Jesus Christ: )
For if by one trespass death reigned through the one man, much more will they who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.)—
18 so then as [it was] by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life.
As then through one trespass all men have come under condemnation, so through one act of righteousness all obtain the gift of righteousness unto life.
19 For as indeed by the disobedience of the one man the many have been constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many will be constituted righteous.
For as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so through the obedience of the one man will the many be made righteous.
20 But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,
Moreover the law came in in addition, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded much more;
21 in order that, even as sin has reigned in [the power of] death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
that as sin reigned in death, so grace might reign through righteousness to everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
