Romans 5
Rom 5:1 Being therefore
justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus
Christ;
Rom 5:2 through whom we
also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We
rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
Rom 5:3 Not only this,
but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works
perseverance;
Rom 5:4 and
perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope:
Rom 5:5 and hope
doesn't disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into
our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Rom 5:6 For while we
were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
Rom 5:7 For one will
hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a righteous person
someone would even dare to die.
Rom 5:8 But God
commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.
Rom 5:9 Much more then,
being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God's wrath
through him.
Rom 5:10 For if, while
we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his
Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.
Rom 5:11 Not only so,
but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through
whom we have now received the reconciliation.
Rom 5:12 Therefore, as
sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin;
and so death passed to all men, because all sinned.
Rom 5:13 For until the
law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no
law.
Rom 5:14 Nevertheless
death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins
weren't like Adam's disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who
was to come.
Rom 5:15 But the free
gift isn't like the trespass. 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 to the many.
Rom 5:16 The gift is
not as through one who sinned: for the judgment came by one to
condemnation, but the free gift came of many trespasses to
justification.
Rom 5:17 For if by the
trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will
those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of
righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.
Rom 5:18 So then as
through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act
of righteousness, all men were justified to life.
Rom 5:19 For as through
the one man's disobedience many were made sinners, even so through
the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.
Rom 5:20 The law came
in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded,
grace abounded more exceedingly;
Rom 5:21 that as sin
reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to
eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
