Therefore
being justified by faith, we have peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ:
02 By whom also we have access by faith into this
grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of
the glory of God.
03 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations
also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
04 And patience, experience; and experience,
hope:
05 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love
of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy
Ghost which is given unto us.
06 For when we were yet without strength, in due
time Christ died for the ungodly.
07 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die:
yet peradventure for a good man some would even
dare to die.
08 But God commendeth his love toward us, in
that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for
us.
09 Much more then, being now justified by his
blood, we shall 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, we shall be saved by his
life.
11 And not only so, but we also joy in God
through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have
now received the atonement.
12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the
world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon
all men, for that all have sinned:

13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but
sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses,
even over them that had not sinned after the
similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the
figure of him that was to come.
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free
gift. For if through the offence of one many be
dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by
grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath
abounded unto many.
16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is
the gift: for the judgment was by one to
condemnation, but the free gift is of many
offences unto justification.
17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by
one; much more they which receive abundance of
grace and of the gift of righteousness shall
reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment
came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the
righteousness of one the free gift came upon all
men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man's disobedience many were
made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall
many be made righteous.
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence
might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did
much more abound:
21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so
might grace reign through righteousness unto
eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
