Romans 5:12 So then, just as sin entered the world
through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all
people
because all sinned – 5:13 for before the law was given,
sin was in the world, but there is no accounting for sin when
there is no law. 5:14 Yet death reigned from Adam until Moses even
over those who did not sin in the same way that Adam (who is a type
of the coming one) transgressed. 5:15 But the gracious gift
is not like the transgression. For if the many died through the
transgression of the one man, how much more did the grace of God
and the gift by the grace of the one man Jesus Christ multiply to
the many! 5:16 And the gift is not like the one who sinned. For
judgment, resulting from the one transgression, led to condemnation,
but the gracious gift from the many failures led to justification.
5:17 For if, by the transgression of the one man, death reigned
through the one, how much more will those who receive the abundance
of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the
one, Jesus Christ!
5:18 Consequently, just as condemnation for all people
came through one transgression, so too through the one righteous
act came righteousness leading to life for all people. 5:19
For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were
made sinners, so also through the obedience of one man many
will be made righteous. 5:20 Now the law came in so that the transgression
may increase, but where sin increased, grace multiplied all the
more, 5:21 so that just as sin reigned in death, so also grace will
reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ
our Lord.
