    7For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: for peradventure for the good man some one would even dare to die.

    8But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

    9Much more then, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath [of God] through him.

    10For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life;

    11and not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

    12Therefore, as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin; and so death passed unto all men, for that all sinned:--

    13for until the law sin was in the world; but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

    14Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is a figure of him that was to come.

    15But not as the trespass, so also [is] the free gift. 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 unto the many.

    16And not as through one that sinned, [so] is the gift: for the judgment [came] of one unto condemnation, but the free gift [came] of many trespasses unto justification.

    19For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one shall the many be made righteous.

    20And the law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace did abound more exceedingly:

    21that, as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
