| 1 | Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: | Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, | Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ; |
| 2 | By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. | through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. | through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God. |
| 3 | And not only so , but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; | Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; | Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance; |
| 4 | And patience, experience; and experience, hope: | perseverance, character; and character, hope. | and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; |
| 5 | And 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 hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us. | and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. |
| 6 | For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. | For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. | For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. |
| 7 | For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. | Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. | For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a good person someone would even dare to die. |
| 8 | But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. | But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. | But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. |
| 9 | Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. | Therefore, since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from wrath through Him! | Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God’s wrath through him. |
| 10 | For 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 of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life! | For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life. |
| 11 | And not only so , but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. | Not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. | Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. |
| 12 | Wherefore, 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, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned. | Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin, so death passed to all men because all sinned. |
| 13 | (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. | For sin was in the world before the law was given; but sin is not taken into account when there is no law. | For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law. |
| 14 | Nevertheless 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 until Moses, even over those who did not sin in the way that Adam transgressed. He is a pattern of the One to come. | Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come. |
| 15 | But 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 the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many! | But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many. |
| 16 | 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. | Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification. | The gift is not as through one who sinned; for the judgment came by one to condemnation, but the free gift followed many trespasses to justification. |
| 17 | For 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 the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ! | For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ. |
| 18 | Therefore 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. | So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation for all men, so also one act of righteousness brought justification and life for all men. | So then as through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were justified to life. |
| 19 | For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. | For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. | For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous. |
| 20 | Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: | The law came in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more, | The law came in that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly, |
| 21 | That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. | so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. | that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. |
