Römer 5

1Being justified therefore by faith, let us have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2By whom also we have access through faith into this grace, wherein we stand, and glory in the hope of the glory of the sons of God.

3And not only so; but we glory also in tribulations, knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4And patience trial; and trial hope;

5And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, who is given to us.

6For why did Christ, when as yet we were weak, according to the time, die for the ungodly?

7For scarce for a just man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die.

8But God commendeth his charity towards us; because when as yet we were sinners, according to the time,

9Christ died for us; much more therefore, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.

10For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son; much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

11And not only so; but also we glory in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received reconciliation.

12Wherefore as by one man sin entered into this world, and by sin death; and so death passed upon all men, in whom all have sinned.

13For until the law sin was in the world; but sin was not imputed, when the law was not.

14But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come.

15But not as the offence, so also the gift. For if by the offence of one, many died; much more the grace of God, and the gift, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

16And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation; but grace is of many offences, unto justification.

17For if by one man’s offence death reigned through one; much more they who receive abundance of grace, and of the gift, and of justice, shall reign in life through one, Jesus Christ.

18Therefore, as by the offence of one, unto all men to condemnation; so also by the justice of one, unto all men to justification of life.

19For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners; so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just.

20Now the law entered in, that sin might abound. And where sin abounded, grace did more abound.

21That as sin hath reigned to death; so also grace might reign by justice unto life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

1Justificati ergo ex fide, pacem habeamus ad Deum per Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum:

2per quem et habemus accessum per fidem in gratiam istam, in qua stamus, et gloriamur in spe gloriæ filiorum Dei.

3Non solum autem, sed et gloriamur in tribulationibus: scientes quod tribulatio patientiam operatur:

4patientia autem probationem, probatio vero spem,

5spes autem non confundit: quia caritas Dei diffusa est in cordibus nostris per Spiritum Sanctum, qui datus est nobis.

6Ut quid enim Christus, cum adhuc infirmi essemus, secundum tempus, pro impiis mortuus est?

7vix enim pro justo quis moritur: nam pro bono forsitan quis audeat mori.

8Commendat autem caritatem suam Deus in nobis: quoniam cum adhuc peccatores essemus, secundum tempus,

9Christus pro nobis mortuus est: multo igitur magis nunc justificati in sanguine ipsius, salvi erimus ab ira per ipsum.

10Si enim cum inimici essemus, reconciliati sumus Deo per mortem filii ejus: multo magis reconciliati, salvi erimus in vita ipsius.

11Non solum autem: sed et gloriamur in Deo per Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum, per quem nunc reconciliationem accepimus.

12Propterea sicut per unum hominem peccatum in hunc mundum intravit, et per peccatum mors, et ita in omnes homines mors pertransiit, in quo omnes peccaverunt.

13Usque ad legem enim peccatum erat in mundo: peccatum autem non imputabatur, cum lex non esset.

14Sed regnavit mors ab Adam usque ad Moysen etiam in eos qui non peccaverunt in similitudinem prævaricationis Adæ, qui est forma futuri.

15Sed non sicut delictum, ita et donum: si enim unius delicto multi mortui sunt: multo magis gratia Dei et donum in gratia unius hominis Jesu Christi in plures abundavit.

16Et non sicut per unum peccatum, ita et donum. Nam judicium quidem ex uno in condemnationem: gratia autem ex multis delictis in justificationem.

17Si enim unius delicto mors regnavit per unum: multo magis abundantiam gratiæ, et donationis, et justitiæ accipientes, in vita regnabunt per unum Jesum Christum.

18Igitur sicut per unius delictum in omnes homines in condemnationem: sic et per unius justitiam in omnes homines in justificationem vitæ.

19Sicut enim per inobedientiam unius hominis, peccatores constituti sunt multi: ita et per unius obeditionem, justi constituentur multi.

20Lex autem subintravit ut abundaret delictum. Ubi autem abundavit delictum, superabundavit gratia:

21ut sicut regnavit peccatum in mortem: ita et gratia regnet per justitiam in vitam æternam, per Jesum Christum Dominum nostrum.

1Therefore, having been justified by faith, let us be at peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ.

2For through him we also have access by faith to this grace, in which we stand firm, and to glory, in the hope of the glory of the sons of God.

3And not only that, but we also find glory in tribulation, knowing that tribulation exercises patience,

4and patience leads to proving, yet truly proving leads to hope,

5but hope is not unfounded, because the love of God is poured forth in our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

6Yet why did Christ, while we were still infirm, at the proper time, suffer death for the impious?

7Now someone might barely be willing to die for the sake of justice, for example, perhaps someone might dare to die for the sake of a good man.

8But God demonstrates his love for us in that, while we were yet sinners, at the proper time,

9Christ died for us. Therefore, having been justified now by his blood, all the more so shall we be saved from wrath through him.

10For if we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, while we were still enemies, all the more so, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

11And not only that, but we also glory in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

12Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into this world, and through sin, death; so also death was transferred to all men, to all who have sinned.

13For even before the law, sin was in the world, but sin was not imputed while the law did not exist.

14Yet death reigned from Adam until Moses, even in those who have not sinned, in the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come.

15But the gift is not entirely like the offense. For though by the offense of one, many died, yet much more so, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, has the grace and gift of God abounded to many.

16And the sin through one is not entirely like the gift. For certainly, the judgment of one was unto condemnation, but the grace toward many offenses is unto justification.

17For though, by the one offense, death reigned through one, yet so much more so shall those who receive an abundance of grace, both of the gift and of justice, reign in life through the one Jesus Christ.

18Therefore, just as through the offense of one, all men fell under condemnation, so also through the justice of one, all men fall under justification unto life.

19For, just as through the disobedience of one man, many were established as sinners, so also through the obedience of one man, many shall be established as just.

20Now the law entered in such a way that offenses would abound. But where offenses were abundant, grace was superabundant.

21So then, just as sin has reigned unto death, so also may grace reign through justice unto eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
