< Romans 5 >
1 Therefore having been justified on the principle of faith, we have peace towards God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Therefore, because we are justified by faith, we shall have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Messiah.
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.
By whom we are brought by faith into this grace, in which we stand and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only [that], but we also boast in tribulations, knowing that tribulation works endurance;
And not only so, but we also rejoice in afflictions; because we know that affliction perfecteth in us patience;
4 and endurance, experience; and experience, hope;
and patience, experience; and experience, 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 maketh not ashamed because the love of God is diffused in our hearts, by the Holy Spirit who is given to us.
6 for we being still without strength, in [the] due time Christ has died for [the] ungodly.
And if at this time, on account of our weakness, Messiah 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;
(for rarely doth one die for the ungodly; though for the good, some one perhaps might venture to die: )
8 but God commends his love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
God hath here manifested his love towards us. Because, if when we were sinners, Messiah 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.
how much more, shall we now be justified by his blood and be rescued from wrath by him?
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 when we were enemies, God was reconciled with us by the death of his Son; how much more shall we, in his reconciliation, lived 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 only so, but we also rejoice in God, by means of our Lord Jesus Messiah, 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:
As by means of one man, sin entered into the world, and, by means of sin, death; and so death passed upon all the sons of men, inasmuch as they all have sinned:
13 (for until law sin was in [the] world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law;
For until the law, sin, although it was in the world, was not accounted sin, because there was 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 until Moses, even over those who had not sinned after the likeness of the transgression of the command by Adam, who was the type of him that 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 not, as the fault, so also the free gift. For if, on account of the fault of one, many died; how much more, will the grace of God and his free gift, on account of one man, Jesus Messiah, abound unto 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 not, as the offence of one, so also the free gift. For the judgment, which was of one offence, was unto condemnation; but the free gift was, of many sins, unto righteousness.
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, on account of the offence of one, death reigned; still more, they who receive the abundance of the grace, and the free gift, and the righteousness, will reign in life, by means of one, Jesus Messiah.
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.
Therefore, as on account of the offence of one, condemnation was to all men; so on account of the righteousness of one, will the victory unto life be to all men.
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; on account of the disobedience of one man, many became sinners; so also, on account of the obedience of one, many become righteous.
20 But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,
And the entrance given to the law, was that sin might increase: and where sin increased, there grace abounded.
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 )
So that, as sin had reigned in death, so grace might reign in righteousness unto life eternal, by means of our Lord Jesus Messiah. (aiōnios )
