New King James VersionInternational Standard Version
1Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,1Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
2through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.2Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace by which we have been established, and we boast because of our hope in God's glory.
3And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;3Not only that, but we also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,
4and perseverance, character; and character, hope.4endurance produces character, and character produces hope.
5Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.5Now this hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
6For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.6For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, the Messiah died for the ungodly.
7For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.7For it is rare for anyone to die for a righteous person, though somebody might be brave enough to die for a good person.
8But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.8But God demonstrates his love for us by the fact that the Messiah died for us while we were still sinners.
9Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.9Now that we have been justified by his blood, how much more will we be saved from wrath through him!
10For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.10For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life!
11And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.11Not only that, but we also continue to boast about God through our Lord Jesus the Messiah, through whom we have now been reconciled.
12Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—12Just as sin entered the world through one man, and death resulted from sin, therefore everyone dies, because everyone has sinned.
13(For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.13Certainly sin was in the world before the Law was given, but no record of sin is kept when there is no Law.
14Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.14Nevertheless, death ruled from the time of Adam to Moses, even over those who did not sin in the same way Adam did when he disobeyed. He is a foreshadowing of the one who would come.
15But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.15But God's free gift is not like Adam's offense. For if many people died as the result of one man's offense, how much more have God's grace and the free gift given through the kindness of one man, Jesus the Messiah, been showered on many people!
16And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification.16Nor can the free gift be compared to what came through the man who sinned. For the sentence that followed one man's offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift brought justification, even after many offenses.
17For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)17For if, through one man, death ruled because of that man's offense, how much more will those who receive such overflowing grace and the gift of righteousness rule in life because of one man, Jesus the Messiah!
18Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.18Consequently, just as one offense resulted in condemnation for everyone, so one act of righteousness results in justification and life for everyone.
19For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.19For just as through one man's disobedience many people were made sinners, so also through one man's obedience many people will be made righteous.
20Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,20Now the Law crept in so that the offense would increase. But where sin increased, grace increased even more,
21so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.21so that, just as sin ruled by bringing death, so also grace might rule by bringing justification that results in eternal life through Jesus the Messiah, our Lord.
