Romans 5
1 Now that we have been made right by God by trusting in him, we have peace with him through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Iustificati ergo ex fide, pacem habeamus ad Deum per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum:
2 It's through Jesus, trusting in him, that we've gained access to this position of grace where we now stand, looking forward with happiness and confidence to sharing in God's glory.
per quem habemus accessum per fidem in gratiam istam, in qua stamus, et gloriamur in spe gloriae filiorum Dei.
3 Not only this—we also remain confident when problems come, because we know that experiencing problems develops spiritual stamina.
Non solum autem, sed et gloriamur in tribulationibus: scientes quod tribulatio patientiam operatur:
4 Spiritual stamina in turn develops a mature character, and this mature character results in confident hope.
patientia autem probationem, probatio vero spem,
5 Since we have this hope we're never disappointed, for God's love has been poured into us through the Holy Spirit he's given us.
spes autem non confundit: quia charitas Dei diffusa est in cordibus nostris per Spiritum sanctum, qui datus est nobis.
6 When we were completely helpless, at just the right time Christ died for us ungodly people.
Ut quid enim Christus, cum adhuc infirmi essemus, secundum tempus pro impiis mortuus est?
7 Who would die for anybody else, even someone who does what's right? (Though perhaps somebody would be brave enough to die for someone really good.)
Vix enim pro iusto quis moritur: nam pro bono forsitan quis audeat mori.
8 But God demonstrates his love for us in that Christ died for us while we were still sinners.
Commendat autem charitatem suam Deus in nobis: quoniam si cum adhuc peccatores essemus, secundum tempus,
9 Now that we are made right by his death, we can be absolutely sure we'll be saved by him from the coming judgment.
Christus pro nobis mortuus est: multo igitur magis nunc iustificati in sanguine ipsius, salvi erimus ab ira per ipsum.
10 While we were his enemies, God made us his friends through the death of his Son, and so we can be absolutely sure that he will save us through the life of his Son.
Si enim cum inimici essemus, reconciliati sumus Deo per mortem filii eius: multo magis reconciliati, salvi erimus in vita ipsius.
11 In addition to this we now celebrate what God has done through our Lord Jesus Christ to reconcile us and make us his friends.
Non solum autem: sed et gloriamur in Deo per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum, per quem nunc reconciliationem accepimus.
12 For through one man sin entered the world, and sin led to death. In this way death came to everyone, for everyone sinned.
Propterea sicut per unum hominem peccatum in hunc mundum intravit, et per peccatum mors, et ita in omnes homines mors pertransiit, in quo omnes peccaverunt:
13 Even before the law was given, sin was in the world, however it wasn't counted as sin because there was no law.
Usque ad legem enim peccatum erat in mundo: peccatum autem non imputabatur, cum lex non esset.
14 But death still ruled from Adam until Moses, even over those who didn't sin in the same way as Adam did. Now Adam prefigured the one to come.
Sed regnavit mors ab Adam usque ad Moysen etiam in eos, qui non peccaverunt in similitudinem praevaricationis Adae, qui est forma futuri.
15 But the gift of Jesus is not like the sin of Adam. Though many people died because of one man's sin, God's grace is so much greater and has been shared with so many through his gracious gift in the person of Jesus Christ.
Sed non sicut delictum, ita et donum. si enim unius delicto multi mortui sunt: multo magis gratia Dei et donum in gratia unius hominis Iesu Christi in plures abundavit.
16 The result of the gift is not like that of the sin. The result of Adam's sin was judgment and condemnation, but the gift sets us right with God, despite our many sins.
Et non sicut per unum peccatum, ita et donum. nam iudicium quidem ex uno in condemnationem: gratia autem ex multis delictis in iustificationem.
17 As a result of one man's sin, death ruled because of him. But God's grace is so much greater and his gift sets us right, for everyone who receives it will rule in life through the person of Jesus Christ!
Si enim unius delicto mors regnavit per unum: multo magis abundantiam gratiae, et donationis, et iustitiae accipientes in vita, regnabunt per unum Iesum Christum.
18 Just as one sin brought condemnation on everyone, in the same way one right act gave everyone the opportunity to live right.
Igitur sicut per unius delictum in omnes homines in condemnationem: sic et per unius iustitiam in omnes homines in iustificationem vitae.
19 Just as through one man's disobedience many became sinners, in the same way through one man's obedience many are made right with God.
Sicut enim per inobedientiam unius hominis, peccatores constituti sunt multi: ita et per unius obeditionem, iusti constituentur multi.
20 When the law was introduced, sin became even more obvious. But while sin became much more obvious, grace became even more obvious!
Lex autem subintravit ut abundaret delictum. Ubi autem abundavit delictum, superabundavit et gratia.
21 Just as sin ruled us and brought us death, now grace rules by making us right with God, bringing us eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
ut sicut regnavit peccatum in mortem: ita et gratia regnet per iustitiam in vitam aeternam, per Iesum Christum Dominum nostrum. (aiōnios g166)
