* Therefore being justified (5685 ) by faith , we have (5719 ) peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ : * By whom also we have (5758 ) access by faith into this grace wherein we stand (5758 ), and rejoice (5736 ) in hope of the glory of God . * And not only so , but we glory (5736 ) in tribulations also : knowing (5761 ) that tribulation worketh (5736 ) patience ; * And patience , experience ; and experience , hope : * And hope maketh not ashamed (5719 ); because the love of God is shed abroad (5769 ) in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given (5685 ) unto us . * For when we were (5752 ) yet without strength , in due time Christ died (5627 ) for the ungodly . * For scarcely for a righteous man will one die (5695 ): yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare (5719 ) to die (5629 ). * But God commendeth (5719 ) his love toward us , in that , while we were (5752 ) yet sinners , Christ died (5627 ) for us . * Much more then , being now justified (5685 ) by his blood , we shall be saved (5701 ) from wrath through him . * For if , when we were (5752 ) enemies , we were reconciled (5648 ) to God by the death of his Son , much more , being reconciled (5651 ), we shall be saved (5701 ) by his life . * And not only so , but we also joy (5740 ) in God through our Lord Jesus Christ , by whom we have now received (5627 ) the atonement . * Wherefore , as by one man sin entered (5627 ) into the world , and death by sin ; and so death passed (5627 ) upon all men , for that all have sinned (5627 ): * (For until the law sin was (5713 ) in the world : but sin is not imputed (5743 ) when there is (5752 ) no law . * Nevertheless death reigned (5656 ) from Adam to Moses , even over them that had not sinned (5660 ) after the similitude of Adams transgression , who is (5748 ) the figure of him that was to come (5723 ). * But not as the offence , so also is the free gift . For if through the offence of one many be dead (5627 ), much more the grace of God , and the gift by grace , which is by one man , Jesus Christ , hath abounded (5656 ) unto many . * And not as it was by one that sinned (5660 ), so is the gift : for the judgment was by one to condemnation , but the free gift is of many offences unto justification . * For if by one mans offence death reigned (5656 ) by one ; much more they which receive (5723 ) abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign (5692 ) in life by one , Jesus Christ .) * 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 . * For as by one mans disobedience many were made (5681 ) sinners , so by the obedience of one shall many be made (5701 ) righteous . * Moreover the law entered (5627 ), that the offence might abound (5661 ). But where sin abounded (5656 ), grace did much more abound (5656 ): * That as sin hath reigned (5656 ) unto death , even so might grace reign (5661 ) through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord . * What shall we say (5692 ) then ? Shall we continue (5692 ) in sin , that grace may abound (5661 )? * God forbid (5636 ). How shall we , that are dead (5627 ) to sin , live (5692 ) any longer therein ? * Know ye not (5719 ), that so many of us as were baptized (5681 ) into Jesus Christ were baptized (5681 ) into his death ? * Therefore we are buried with (5648 ) him by baptism into death : that like as Christ was raised up (5681 ) from the dead by the glory of the Father , even so we also should walk (5661 ) in newness of life . * For if we have been (5754 ) planted together in the likeness of his death , we shall be (5704 ) also in the likeness of his resurrection : * Knowing (5723 ) this , that our old man is crucified with (5681 ) him , that the body of sin might be destroyed (5686 ), that henceforth we should not serve (5721 ) sin . * For he that is dead (5631 ) is freed (5769 ) from sin . * Now if we be dead (5627 ) with Christ , we believe (5719 ) that we shall also live (5692 ) with him : * Knowing (5761 ) that Christ being raised (5685 ) from the dead dieth (5719 ) no more ; death hath no more dominion over (5719 ) him . * For in that he died (5627 ), he died (5627 ) unto sin once : but in that he liveth (5719 ), he liveth (5719 ) unto God . * Likewise reckon (5737 ) ye also yourselves to be (5750 ) dead indeed unto sin , but alive (5723 ) unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord . * Let not sin therefore reign (5720 ) in your mortal body , that ye should obey (5721 ) it in the lusts thereof . * Neither yield ye (5720 ) your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin : but yield (5657 ) yourselves unto God , as those that are alive (5723 ) from the dead , and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God . * For sin shall not have dominion over (5692 ) you : for ye are (5748 ) not under the law , but under grace . * What then ? shall we sin (5692 ), because we are (5748 ) not under the law , but under grace ? God forbid (5636 ). * Know ye (5758 ) not , that to whom ye yield (5719 ) yourselves servants to obey , his servants ye are (5748 ) to whom ye obey (5719 ); whether of sin unto death , or of obedience unto righteousness ? * But God be thanked , that ye were (5713 ) the servants of sin , but ye have obeyed (5656 ) from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you (5681 ). * Being then made free (5685 ) from sin , ye became the servants (5681 ) of righteousness . * I speak (5719 ) after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh : for as ye have yielded (5656 ) your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity ; even so now yield (5657 ) your members servants to righteousness unto holiness . * For when ye were (5713 ) the servants of sin , ye were (5713 ) free from righteousness . * What fruit had ye (5707 ) then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed (5736 )? for the end of those things is death . * But now being made free (5685 ) from sin , and become servants (5685 ) to God , ye have (5719 ) your fruit unto holiness , and the end everlasting life . * For the wages of sin is death ; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord . * Know ye not (5719 ), brethren , (for I speak (5719 ) to them that know (5723 ) the law ,) how that the law hath dominion over (5719 ) a man as long as he liveth (5719 )?
