Romans 5
1 Therefore being accepted as righteous through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
2 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.
through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only so, but we rejoice in afflictions also, knowing that affliction produceth endurance,
Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;
4 and endurance proof [[of faith]], and proof [[of faith giveth]] hope;
and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope;
5 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.
and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 For while we were yet without strength, in due season Christ died for the ungodly.
For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 Now hardly for a righteous man will one die; perhaps, however, for a benefactor one might even dare to die.
For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a good person someone would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now accepted as righteous through his blood, we shall be saved through him from the [[coming]] wrath.
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God’s wrath through him.
10 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;
For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.
11 and not this only, but also having joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 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—
Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin, so death passed to all men because all sinned.
13 (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.
For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law.
14 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.—
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins were not like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.
15 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.
But the free gift is not like the trespass. 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 to the many.
16 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.
The gift is not as through one who sinned; for the judgment came by one to condemnation, but the free gift followed many trespasses to justification.
17 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.)—
For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.
18 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.
So then as through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were justified to life.
19 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.
For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.
20 Moreover the law came in in addition, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded much more;
The law came in that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly,
