Footnotes

  1. 21 Grk “and not as through the one who sinned [is] the gift.”
  2. 22 The word “transgression” is not in the Greek text at this point, but has been supplied for clarity.
  3. 23 Greek emphasizes the contrast between these two clauses more than can be easily expressed in English.
  4. 24 Or “falls, trespasses,” the same word used in vv. 15, 17, 18, 20.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

And the free gift is not like the result of that one man’s sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brought justification.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Nor can the gift of God be compared with the result of one man’s sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

And the gift is not like the one man’s sin, because from one sin came the judgment, resulting in condemnation, but from many trespasses came the gift, resulting in justification.

NLTNew Living Translation

And the result of God’s gracious gift is very different from the result of that one man’s sin. For Adam’s sin led to condemnation, but God’s free gift leads to our being made right with God, even though we are guilty of many sins.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And the gift is not as through the one who sinned, for on the one hand, judgment from the one sin led to condemnation, but the gift, from many trespasses, led to justification.

KJV 1900King James Version

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.
