Romans 5
1 Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
我们既然信任上帝而成为良善正直之人，就通过我们的主耶稣基督与上帝和平相处。
2 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.
通过耶稣、通过对他的信任，我们才能在所站之处获得恩典，期盼分享上帝荣耀所带来的福报和信心。
3 And not only [so], but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation doth work endurance;
不仅如此，我们还在困难来袭时保持自信，因为我们知道患难会带来精神上的持久力量，
4 and the endurance, experience; and the experience, hope;
精神上的持久力量会让我们拥有成熟的性格，成熟的性格会带来自信的希望。
5 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.
这希望让我们永远不会失望，因为上帝通过他赐予我们的圣灵，将他的爱灌注在我们的心中。
6 For in our being still ailing, Christ in due time did die for the impious;
当我们感到彻头彻尾的无助，耶稣便在恰好的时间，因不信上帝之人而赴死。
7 for scarcely for a righteous man will any one die, for for the good man perhaps some one also doth dare to die;
谁能为其他人而死，为不正确行事之人而死？（有人可能愿意为他人舍生，但只是为真正善良之人而死）
8 and God doth commend His own love to us, that, in our being still sinners, Christ did die for us;
基督为仍然是罪人的我们而放弃自己的生命，这就是上帝彰显他对我们的爱。
9 much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath;
既然他的死让我们成为良善正直之人，就可以确定，我们将在即将到来的审判中，因他而获得拯救。
10 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.
我们以他为敌的时候，上帝通过上帝之子的死让我们成为他的朋友，可以确定的是，上帝将通过上帝之子的生命拯救我们。
11 And not only [so], but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we did receive the reconciliation;
不仅如此，上帝通过主耶稣所行之事与我们和解，让我们成为他的朋友，我们现在就可以为之而庆贺。
12 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;
罪通过人进入这个世界，罪带来死亡。所以，所有人都会死，因为所有人都有罪。
13 for till law sin was in the world: and sin is not reckoned when there is not law;
在律法被赋予人类以前，罪便已存于这世界，但因为当时没有律法，罪也不算罪。
14 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.
但从亚当到摩西的这段时间，死亡仍然无法躲避，甚至像亚当那样没有犯罪之人，也不免一死。 亚当预示了那即将到来之人。
15 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;
但耶稣的恩赐与亚当的罪截然不同。尽管很多人因一个人的罪而死，上帝会赐予更多恩典，通过耶稣基督让众多之人可以分享。
16 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,'
这恩赐的结果与罪行结果完全不同，亚当之罪带来了审判和定罪，恩赐却会让我们因上帝而变得良善正直，无论我们有多少罪。
17 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.
因一个人的罪，死亡就会因此人而掌控这世界。但上帝的恩典如此伟大，他恩赐之礼让我们变得良善正确，因为每一位接受他之人，都会通过耶稣基督获得生命。
18 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;
一个罪让所有人都遭受审判，所有人都被定罪。同样，一个良善行为也会让所有人获得生而良善正义的机会。
19 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.
亚当的不顺从让众人变成了罪人。同样，耶稣的顺从会让众人与上帝和解。
20 And law came in, that the offence might abound, and where the sin did abound, the grace did overabound,
当律法被带到这个世界，罪就变得显而易见。但是，当罪变得更加显而易见，恩典同样也会变得显而易见！
