5
and hope maketh not ashamed, because the love of God is poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit that was given to us.
6
For Christ, while we were yet weak, died in due time for ungodly [men].
7

On this account as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death, and thus death passed unto all men, for that all sinned:
13
(for until law sin was in [the] world, but no sin is put to account when there is no law;
14
but death reigned from Adam till Moses even over those that had not sinned in the likeness of Adam’s transgression, who is a figure of the coming [one].

16
And [shall] not, as by one having sinned, [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one unto condemnation, but the free gift [was] of many offences unto justification.
17
For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much more they that receive the abundance of the grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by the one Jesus Christ:)
18
So then as by one offence [it was] toward all men for condemnation, so also by one accomplished righteousness toward all men for justification of life.
19

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