< Romans 5 >
1 Being justified therefore by faith, let us have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ:
Being therefore justified by faith, let us have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
2 By whom also we have access through faith into this grace, wherein we stand, and glory in the hope of the glory of the sons of God.
through whom also we have had our access by faith into this grace wherein we stand; and let us rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only so; but we glory also in tribulations, knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
And not only so, but let us also rejoice in our tribulations: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4 And patience trial; and trial hope;
and patience, probation; and probation, hope:
5 And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, who is given to us.
and hope putteth not to shame; because the love of God hath been shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Ghost which was given unto us.
6 For why did Christ, when as yet we were weak, according to the time, die for the ungodly?
For while we were yet weak, in due season Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarce for a just man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die.
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: for peradventure for the good man some one would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his charity towards us; because when as yet we were sinners, according to the time,
But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Christ died for us; much more therefore, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath [of God] through him.
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son; much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life;
11 And not only so; but also we glory in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received reconciliation.
and not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 Wherefore as by one man sin entered into this world, and by sin death; and so death passed upon all men, in whom all have sinned.
Therefore, as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin; and so death passed unto all men, for that all sinned: —
13 For until the law sin was in the world; but sin was not imputed, when the law was not.
for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come.
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the likeness of Adam’s transgression, who is a figure of him that was to come.
15 But not as the offence, so also the gift. For if by the offence of one, many died; much more the grace of God, and the gift, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
But not as the trespass, so also [is] the free gift. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound unto the many.
16 And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation; but grace is of many offences, unto justification.
And not as through one that sinned, [so] is the gift: for the judgment [came] of one unto condemnation, but the free gift [came] of many trespasses unto justification.
17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned through one; much more they who receive abundance of grace, and of the gift, and of justice, shall reign in life through one, Jesus Christ.
For if, by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; much more shall they that receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, [even] Jesus Christ.
18 Therefore, as by the offence of one, unto all men to condemnation; so also by the justice of one, unto all men to justification of life.
So then as through one trespass [the judgment came] unto all men to condemnation; even so through one act of righteousness [the free gift came] unto all men to justification of life.
19 For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners; so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just.
For as through the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one shall the many be made righteous.
20 Now the law entered in, that sin might abound. And where sin abounded, grace did more abound.
And the law came in beside, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace did abound more exceedingly:
21 That as sin hath reigned to death; so also grace might reign by justice unto life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
that, as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
