Romans 5:6–15

⁶For in our being still ailing, Christ in due time did die for the impious; ⁷for scarcely for a righteous man will any one die, for for the good man perhaps some one also doth dare to die; ⁸and God doth commend His own love to us, that, in our being still sinners, Christ did die for us; ⁹much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath; ¹⁰for if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in his life. ¹¹And not only so, but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we did receive the reconciliation; ¹²because of this, even as through one man the sin did enter into the world, and through the sin the death; and thus to all men the death did pass through, for that all did sin; ¹³for till law sin was in the world: and sin is not reckoned when there is not law; ¹⁴but the death did reign from Adam till Moses, even upon those not having sinned in the likeness of Adam’s transgression, who is a type of him who is coming. ¹⁵But, not as the offence so also is the free gift; for if by the offence of the one the many did die, much more did the grace of God, and the free gift in grace of the one man Jesus Christ, abound to the many;
