Romans 5
1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Being justified therefore by faith, let us have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 through whom also we have had the access, by the Faith, into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
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.
3 Not only so, but we should also rejoice in the sufferings, knowing that the suffering produces perseverance;
And not only so; but we glory also in tribulations, knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4 and the perseverance, proven character; and the proven character, hope;
And patience trial; and trial hope;
5 and the hope does not humiliate, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, who is given to us.
6 Now then, when we were incapacitated, even so Christ died for the ungodly, at the right moment.
For why did Christ, when as yet we were weak, according to the time, die for the ungodly?
7 Now scarcely even for a righteous person will someone offer to die (although on behalf of a good man someone might dare even to die),
For scarce for a just man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die.
8 but God demonstrates His own love toward us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us!
But God commendeth his charity towards us; because when as yet we were sinners, according to the time,
9 So now that we have been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from the wrath through Him!
Christ died for us; much more therefore, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.
10 Because since we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, while we were enemies, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life!
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.
11 No wonder we rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation!
And not only so; but also we glory in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received reconciliation.
12 Now then, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, just so death spread to all men, because all sinned
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.
13 —sin was in the world before the law, to be sure, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
For until the law sin was in the world; but sin was not imputed, when the law was not.
14 Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who did not sin in the likeness of Adam's transgression (he is a type of the coming one).
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.
15 Now the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one, how much more did God's grace and the bounty by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!
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.
16 Again, the gift is not like what came from one man's having sinned: because the judgment into condemnation followed one offense, while the gracious gift into justification followed many offenses.
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.
17 Further, if by the offense of the one man death reigned through that man, much more will those who receive the abundance of the grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.
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.
18 So then, as through one offense there is condemnation for everyone, so also through one righteous act there is life-giving justification for everyone.
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.
19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were constituted sinners, so also through the obedience of the One the many will be constituted righteous.
For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners; so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just.
20 However, law came on the scene so that the offense might abound; but where the sin abounded, the grace superabounded,
Now the law entered in, that sin might abound. And where sin abounded, grace did more abound.
21 so that just as sin reigned in the death, so also the grace might reign through righteousness into eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
That as sin hath reigned to death; so also grace might reign by justice unto life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
