1 T herefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

¶ Justified therefore by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus, the Christ,

2 B y whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

by whom we also have access by faith into this grace in which we stand and glory in hope of the glory of the sons of God.

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

And not only this, but we even glory in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation works patience;

4 A nd patience, experience; and experience, hope:

and patience, experience; and experience, hope;

5 A nd hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

and the hope shall not be ashamed, because the love of God is poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given unto us.

6 F or when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

¶ For the Christ, when we were yet weak, in his time died for the ungodly.

7 F or scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

For scarcely for a righteous man will one die, yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

8 B ut God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

But God increased the price of his charity toward us in that while we were yet sinners the Christ died for us.

9 M uch more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Then much more now justified in his blood, we shall be saved from wrath by him.

10 F or 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.

For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled with God by the death of his Son, much more, now reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

11 A nd not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

And not only this, but we even glory in God through our Lord Jesus, the Christ, by whom we have now received the reconciliation.

12 W herefore, 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:

Therefore, in the manner which sin entered into the world by one man, and because of sin, death; and so death passed upon all men in the one in whom all sinned.

13 ( For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

For until the law, sin was in the world; but the sin was not imputed, there being no law.

14 N evertheless 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.

Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even in those that did not sin after the manner of the rebellion of Adam, who is a figure of him that was to come.

15 B ut 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.

But not as the offense, so also is the gift. For if through the offense of that one many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of one man, Jesus the Christ, has abounded unto many.

16 A nd 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.

Nor was it in the same manner as by one sin, likewise also the gift; for the judgment truly came of one sin unto condemnation, but grace came of many offenses unto justification.

17 F or 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.)

For if by one offense, death reigned because of one man; much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of gifts and of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus the Christ.

18 T herefore 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.

Therefore, in the same manner that by the iniquity of one guilt came upon all men unto condemnation, even so by the righteousness of one, grace came upon all men unto justification of life.

19 F or as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

For as by one man’s disobedience, many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

20 M oreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

Moreover the law entered that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound,

21 T hat as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

so that in the same manner as sin has reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus, the Christ, our Lord.
