Romans 5

The Darby Translation DBY

1 Therefore having been justified on the principle of faith, we have peace towards God through our Lord Jesus Christ;

2 by whom we have also access by faith into this favour in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.

3 And not only [that], but we also boast in tribulations, knowing that tribulation works endurance;

4 and endurance, experience; and experience, hope;

5 and hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by [the] Holy Spirit which has been given to us:

6 for we being still without strength, in [the] due time Christ has died for [the] ungodly.

7 For scarcely for [the] just [man] will one die, for perhaps for [the] good [man] some one might also dare to die;

8 but God commends *his* love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.

9 Much rather therefore, having been now justified in [the power of] his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath.

10 For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much rather, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in [the power of] his life.

11 And not only [that], but [we are] making our boast in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we have received the reconciliation.

12 For this [cause], even as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death; and thus death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

13 (for until law sin was in [the] world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law;

14 but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even upon those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is [the] figure of him to come.

15 But [shall] not the act of favour [be] as the offence? For if by the offence of one the many have died, much rather has the grace of God, and the free gift in grace, which [is] by the one man Jesus Christ, abounded unto the many.

16 And [shall] not as by one that has sinned [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification.

17 For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much rather shall those who receive the abundance of grace, and of the free gift of righteousness, reign in life by the one Jesus Christ:)

18 so then as [it was] by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life.

19 For as indeed by the disobedience of the one man the many have been constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many will be constituted righteous.

20 But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,

21 in order that, even as sin has reigned in [the power of] death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

New Century Version NCV

1 Since we have been made right with God by our faith, we have peace with God. This happened through our Lord Jesus Christ,

2 who has brought us into that blessing of God's grace that we now enjoy. And we are happy because of the hope we have of sharing God's glory.

3 We also have joy with our troubles, because we know that these troubles produce patience.

4 And patience produces character, and character produces hope.

5 And this hope will never disappoint us, because God has poured out his love to fill our hearts. He gave us his love through the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to us.

6 When we were unable to help ourselves, at the moment of our need, Christ died for us, although we were living against God.

7 Very few people will die to save the life of someone else. Although perhaps for a good person someone might possibly die.

8 But God shows his great love for us in this way: Christ died for us while we were still sinners.

9 So through Christ we will surely be saved from God's anger, because we have been made right with God by the blood of Christ's death.

10 While we were God's enemies, he made friends with us through the death of his Son. Surely, now that we are his friends, he will save us through his Son's life.

11 And not only that, but now we are also very happy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we are now God's friends again.

12 Sin came into the world because of what one man did, and with sin came death. This is why everyone must die -- because everyone sinned.

13 Sin was in the world before the law of Moses, but sin is not counted against us as breaking a command when there is no law.

14 But from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, everyone had to die, even those who had not sinned by breaking a command, as Adam had. Adam was like the One who was coming in the future.

15 But God's free gift is not like Adam's sin. Many people died because of the sin of that one man. But the grace from God was much greater; many people received God's gift of life by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ.

16 After Adam sinned once, he was judged guilty. But the gift of God is different. God's free gift came after many sins, and it makes people right with God.

17 One man sinned, and so death ruled all people because of that one man. But now those people who accept God's full grace and the great gift of being made right with him will surely have true life and rule through the one man, Jesus Christ.

18 So as one sin of Adam brought the punishment of death to all people, one good act that Christ did makes all people right with God. And that brings true life for all.

19 One man disobeyed God, and many became sinners. In the same way, one man obeyed God, and many will be made right.

20 The law came to make sin worse. But when sin grew worse, God's grace increased.

21 Sin once used death to rule us, but God gave people more of his grace so that grace could rule by making people right with him. And this brings life forever through Jesus Christ our Lord.
