Chapter 5

1


 

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

 

 

-

2


 

  By 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.  

 

 

-

3


 

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

 

 

-

4


 

  And patience trial; and trial hope;  

 

 

-

5


 

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

 

 

-

6


 

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

 

 

-

7


 

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

 

 

-

8


 

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

 

 

-

9


 

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

 

 

-

10


 

  For 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.  

 

 

-

11


 

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

 

 

-

12


 

  Wherefore 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.  

 

 

-

13


 

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

 

 

-

14


 

  But 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.  

 

 

-

15


 

  But 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.  

 

 

-

16


 

  And 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.  

 

 

-

17


 

  For 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.  

 

 

-

18


 

  Therefore, 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.  

 

 

-

19


 

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

 

 

-

20


 

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

 

 

-

21


 

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