< Romans 5 >

1 Having, therefore, been declared righteous by faith, let us have, peace, towards 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, our introduction, [by our faith] into this favour wherein we stand; and let us boast in hope of the glory of God.
through whom also we have had our access by faith into this grace wherein we stand; and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 And, not only so, but let us boast also in our tribulations; knowing that, our tribulation, worketh out endurance.
And not only so, but we also rejoice in our tribulations: knowing that tribulation worketh stedfastness;
4 And, our endurance, a testing, and, our testing, hope,
and stedfastness, approvedness; and approvedness, hope:
5 And, our hope, putteth not to shame. Because, the love of God, hath been poured out in our hearts, through the Holy Spirit that hath been given unto us:
and hope putteth not to shame; because the love of God hath been shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Spirit which was given unto us.
6 Seeing that, Christ, we being weak as yet, seasonably, in behalf of such as were ungodly, died.
For while we were yet weak, in due season Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For, scarcely in behalf of a righteous man, will one die, —in behalf of the good man indeed, peradventure one even dareth to die;
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: for peradventure for the good man some one would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his own love unto us in that—we as yet being sinners, Christ in our behalf died.
But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more, then, having now been declared righteous by his blood, shall we be saved through him from the anger.
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath [of God] through him.
10 For, if being enemies we were reconciled unto 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, shall we be saved by his life;
11 And, not only, so, but are even boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus [Christ], —through whom, now, the reconciliation we have received.
and not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 For this cause, —just as, through one man, sin into the world entered, and through sin, death, —and, so, unto all men death passed through, for that all had sinned; —
Therefore, as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin; and so death passed unto all men, for that all sinned: —
13 For, until law, sin was in the world, although sin is not reckoned when there is no law, —
for until the law sin was in the world; but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Yet still, death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over them who had not sinned after the likeness of the transgression of Adam, —who is a type of the Coming One; —
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the likeness of Adam’s transgression, who is a figure of him that was to come.
15 But, not as the fault, so, [also] the decree of favour, for, if, by the fault of the one, the many died, much more, the favour of God and the free-gift in favour, by the one man Jesus Christ, unto the many superabounded;
But not as the trespass, so also [is] the free gift. 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 unto the many.
16 And, not as through one that sinned, is that which is freely given, for, the sentence of judgment, indeed, was—out of one [fault] into condemnation, whereas, the decree of favour, is—out of many faults, into a recovery of righteousness.
And not as through one that sinned, [so] is the gift: for the judgment [came] of one unto condemnation, but the free gift [came] of many trespasses unto justification.
17 For, if, by the fault of the one, death reigned through the one, much more, they who the superabundance of the favour and of [the free-gift of] the righteousness do receive, in life, shall reign through the one, Jesus Christ.
For if, by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; much more shall they that receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, [even] Jesus Christ.
18 Hence then, as through one fault, [the sentence was] unto all men unto condemnation, so, also, through one recovery of righteousness, [the decree of favour] is unto all men for righteous acquittal unto life;
So then as through one trespass [the judgment came] unto all men to condemnation; even so through one act of righteousness [the free gift came] unto all men to justification of life.
19 For, just as, through the disobedience of the one man, sinners, the many were constituted, so, also, through the obedience of the one, righteous, the many shall be constituted—
For as through the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one shall the many be made righteous.
20 Law, however, gained admission, in order that the fault might abound, but, where the sin abounded, the favour greatly superabounded:
And the law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace did abound more exceedingly:
21 In order that—just as sin reigned in death, so, also, favour, might reign through righteousness unto life age-abiding, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
that, as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
