< Romans 5 >
1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
through whom also we have the access by the faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
And not only [so], but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation doth work endurance;
4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
and the endurance, experience; and the experience, hope;
5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given to us.
and the hope doth not make ashamed, because the love of God hath been poured forth in our hearts through the Holy Spirit that hath been given to us.
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
For in our being still ailing, Christ in due time did die for the impious;
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet perhaps for a good man some would even dare to die.
for scarcely for a righteous man will any one die, for for the good man perhaps some one also doth dare to die;
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
and God doth commend His own love to us, that, in our being still sinners, Christ did die for us;
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath;
10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
for if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in his life.
11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the reconciliation.
And not only [so], but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we did receive the reconciliation;
12 Therefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
because of this, even as through one man the sin did enter into the world, and through the sin the death; and thus to all men the death did pass through, for that all did sin;
13 ( For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
for till law sin was in the world: and sin is not reckoned when there is not law;
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
but the death did reign from Adam till Moses, even upon those not having sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is a type of him who is coming.
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many are dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded to many.
But, not as the offence so also [is] the free gift; for if by the offence of the one the many did die, much more did the grace of God, and the free gift in grace of the one man Jesus Christ, abound to the many;
16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences to justification.
and not as through one who did sin [is] the free gift, for the judgment indeed [is] of one to condemnation, but the gift [is] of many offences to a declaration of 'Righteous,'
17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
for if by the offence of the one the death did reign through the one, much more those, who the abundance of the grace and of the free gift of the righteousness are receiving, in life shall reign through the one — Jesus Christ.
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men to justification of life.
So, then, as through one offence to all men [it is] to condemnation, so also through one declaration of 'Righteous' [it is] to all men to justification of life;
19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
for as through the disobedience of the one man, the many were constituted sinners: so also through the obedience of the one, shall the many be constituted righteous.
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
And law came in, that the offence might abound, and where the sin did abound, the grace did overabound,
21 That as sin hath reigned to death, even so might grace reign through righteousness to eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
