< Romans 5 >

1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Therefore being accepted as righteous through faith, we 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.
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 Not only so, but we should also rejoice in the sufferings, knowing that the suffering produces perseverance;
And not only so, but we rejoice in afflictions also, knowing that affliction produceth endurance,
4 and the perseverance, proven character; and the proven character, hope;
and endurance proof [[of faith]], and proof [[of faith giveth]] 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 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 Now then, when we were incapacitated, even so Christ died for the ungodly, at the right moment.
For while we were yet without strength, in due season Christ died 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),
Now hardly for a righteous man will one die; perhaps, however, for a benefactor one might even 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 love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 So now that we have been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from the wrath through Him!
Much more then, being now accepted as righteous through his blood, we shall be saved through him from the [[coming]] wrath.
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 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 No wonder we rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now 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 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
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 —sin was in the world before the law, to be sure, but sin is not imputed 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 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).
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 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 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 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 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 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 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 through one offense there is condemnation for everyone, so also through one righteous act there is life-giving justification for everyone.
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 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 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 However, law came on the scene so that the offense might abound; but where the sin abounded, the grace superabounded,
Moreover the law came in in addition, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded much more;
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 reigned in death, so grace might reign through righteousness to everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
