Romans 5:12–18

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.
