Romanos 5
1 Iustificati ergo ex fide, pacem habeamus ad Deum per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum:
Therefore being accepted as righteous through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
2 per quem et habemus accessum per fidem in gratiam istam, in qua stamus, et gloriamur in spe gloriæ filiorum Dei.
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.
3 Non solum autem, sed et gloriamur in tribulationibus: scientes quod tribulatio patientiam operatur:
And not only so, but we rejoice in afflictions also, knowing that affliction produceth endurance,
4 patientia autem probationem, probatio vero spem,
and endurance proof [[of faith]], and proof [[of faith giveth]] hope;
5 spes autem non confundit: quia charitas Dei diffusa est in cordibus nostris per Spiritum sanctum, qui datus est nobis.
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.
6 Ut quid enim Christus, cum adhuc infirmi essemus, secundum tempus pro impiis mortuus est?
For while we were yet without strength, in due season Christ died for the ungodly.
7 Vix enim pro iusto quis moritur: nam pro bono forsitan quis audeat mori.
Now hardly for a righteous man will one die; perhaps, however, for a benefactor one might even dare to die.
8 Commendat autem charitatem suam Deus in nobis: quoniam cum adhuc peccatores essemus, secundum tempus,
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Christus pro nobis mortuus est: multo igitur magis nunc iustificati in sanguine ipsius, salvi erimus ab ira per ipsum.
Much more then, being now accepted as righteous through his blood, we shall be saved through him from the [[coming]] wrath.
10 Si enim cum inimici essemus, reconciliati sumus Deo per mortem filii eius: multo magis reconciliati, salvi erimus in vita ipsius.
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;
11 Non solum autem: sed et gloriamur in Deo per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum, per quem nunc reconciliationem accepimus.
and not this only, but also having joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 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:
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—
13 Usque ad legem enim peccatum erat in mundo: peccatum autem non imputabatur, cum lex non esset.
(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.
14 Sed regnavit mors ab Adam usque ad Moysen etiam in eos, qui non peccaverunt in similitudinem prævaricationis Adæ, qui est forma futuri.
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.—
15 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.
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.
16 Et non sicut per unum peccatum, ita et donum. nam iudicium quidem ex uno in condemnationem: gratia autem ex multis delictis in iustificationem.
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.
17 Si enim unius delicto mors regnavit per unum: multo magis abundantiam gratiæ, et donationis, et iustitiæ accipientes, in vita regnabunt per unum Iesum Christum.
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.)—
18 Igitur sicut per unius delictum in omnes homines in condemnationem: sic et per unius iustitiam in omnes homines in iustificationem vitæ.
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.
19 Sicut enim per inobedientiam unius hominis, peccatores constituti sunt multi: ita et per unius obeditionem, iusti constituentur multi.
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.
20 Lex autem subintravit ut abundaret delictum. Ubi autem abundavit delictum, superabundavit gratia.
Moreover the law came in in addition, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded much more;
