Romans 5:7-21

7For oneG5100 will hardlyG3433 dieG599 for a righteousG1342 manG1342; 1thoughG1063 perhapsG5029 for the goodG18 manG18 someoneG5100 would dareG5111 evenG2532 to dieG599. 8But GodG2316 2demonstratesG4921 3His ownG1438 loveG26 towardG1519 us, in that while we were yetG2089 sinnersG268, 4ChristG5547 diedG599 for us. 9MuchG4183 moreG3123 thenG3767, having nowG3568 been justifiedG1344 56by His bloodG129, we shall be savedG4982 7from the wrathG3709 of God throughG1223 Him. 10For ifG1487 while we were 8enemiesG2190 we were reconciledG2644 to GodG2316 throughG1223 the deathG2288 of His SonG5207, muchG4183 moreG3123, having been reconciledG2644, we shall be savedG4982 910by His lifeG2222. 1111And not onlyG3440 this, 12but we alsoG2532 exultG2744 in GodG2316 throughG1223 our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, throughG1223 whomG3739 we have nowG3568 receivedG2983 13the reconciliationG2643.

12ThereforeG1223G3778, justG5618 as throughG1223 14oneG1520 manG444 sinG266 enteredG1525 into the worldG2889, and 15deathG2288 throughG1223 sinG266, and 16soG3779 deathG2288 spreadG1330 to allG3956 menG444, becauseG1909G3739 allG3956 sinnedG264-- 13for 17untilG891 the LawG3551 sinG266 was in the worldG2889, but 18sinG266 is not imputedG1677 when there is noG3361 lawG3551. 14NeverthelessG235 deathG2288 reignedG936 from AdamG76 untilG3360 MosesG3475, evenG2532 overG1909 thoseG3588 who had not sinnedG264 19in the likenessG3667 of the offenseG3847 of AdamG76, whoG3739 is a 2021typeG5179 of Him who was to comeG3195.

15But 22the freeG5486 giftG5486 is not likeG5613 the transgressionG3900. For ifG1487 by the transgressionG3900 of 23the oneG1520 24the manyG4183 diedG599, muchG4183 moreG3123 did the graceG5485 of GodG2316 and the giftG1431 by 25the graceG5485 of the oneG1520 ManG444, JesusG2424 ChristG5547, aboundG4052 to the manyG4183. 16The giftG1434 is not likeG5613 that which came throughG1223 the oneG1520 who sinnedG264; for on the oneG3303 handG3303 26the judgmentG2917 arose from oneG1520 transgression 27resultingG1519 in condemnationG2631, but on the otherG1161 handG1161 the freeG5486 giftG5486 arose from manyG4183 transgressionsG3900 28resultingG1519 in justificationG1345. 17For ifG1487 by the transgressionG3900 of the oneG1520, deathG2288 reignedG936 29throughG1223 the oneG1520, muchG4183 moreG3123 thoseG3588 who receiveG2983 the abundanceG4050 of graceG5485 and of the giftG1431 of righteousnessG1343 will 30reignG936 in lifeG2222 throughG1223 the OneG1520, JesusG2424 ChristG5547.

18SoG686 thenG686 as throughG1223 31oneG1520 transgressionG3900 32there resultedG1519 condemnationG2631 to allG3956 menG444, evenG2532 soG3779 throughG1223 oneG1520 33actG1345 of righteousnessG1345 34there resultedG1519 35justificationG1347 of lifeG2222 to allG3956 menG444. 19For as throughG1223 the oneG1520 man’sG444 disobedienceG3876 36the manyG4183 37were madeG2525 sinnersG268, evenG2532 soG3779 throughG1223 38the obedienceG5218 of the OneG1520 39the manyG4183 will be madeG2525 righteousG1342. 204041The LawG3551 cameG3922 in soG2443 that the transgressionG3900 would increaseG4121; but whereG3757 sinG266 increasedG4121, 42graceG5485 aboundedG5248 allG5248 the moreG5248, 21soG3779 that, as 43sinG266 reignedG936 in deathG2288, evenG2532 soG3779 44graceG5485 would reignG936 throughG1223 righteousnessG1343 to eternalG166 lifeG2222 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 our LordG2962.
