[1] Therefore being iustified by fayth, we are at peace with god, thorowe our Lorde Iesus Christe
[2] By whom also we haue had an entrauce by fayth, vnto this grace wherin we stande, and reioyce in hope of the glorie of God
[3] Not that only: but also we reioyce in tribulations, knowyng that tribulation worketh pacience
[4] Pacience profe, profe hope
[5] And hope maketh not ashamed, because the loue of God is shedde abrode in our heartes by the holy ghost, which is geuen vnto vs
[6] For when we were yet weake, accordyng to the tyme, Christe dyed for the vngodly
[7] Nowe scace wyll any man dye for the righteous: Yet peraduenture for the good some men durst dye
[8] But God setteth out his loue towarde vs, seyng that whyle we were yet sinners, Christe dyed for vs
[9] Muche more then nowe, we that are iustified by his blood, shalbe saued from wrath through hym
[10] For, yf when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his sonne: much more, seyng we are reconciled, we shalbe saued by his lyfe
[11] Not only so, but we also ioye in God, through our Lorde Iesus Christe, by who we haue nowe receaued the atonement
[12] Wherfore, as by one man sinne entred into the worlde, & death by sinne: euen so, death entred into all men, insomuch as all haue sinned
[13] For vnto the lawe, was sinne in the worlde: but sinne is not imputed when there is no lawe
[14] Neuerthelesse, death raigned from Adam to Moyses, ouer them also that had not sinned with lyke transgression as dyd Adam, whiche is the figure of hym that was to come
[15] But not as the sinne, so is the gyft. For yf through the sinne of one many be dead: much more the grace of God, and the gyft by grace, which is by one man Iesus Christe, hath abounded vnto many
[16] And not as by one that sinned [euen so] the gyft. For the iudgement was of one into condemnation: but the gyfte, of many sinnes into iustification
[17] For yf by the sinne of one, death raigned by the meanes of one: much more they, whiche receaue aboundaunce of grace, and of the gyfte of ryghteousnes, shall raigne in life by the meanes of one, Iesus Christe
[18] Lykewyse then, as by the sinne of one [sinne came] on all men to condempnation: euen so, by the ryghteousnes of one [good came] vpon all men to the ryghteousnes of lyfe
[19] For as by one mans disobedience many became sinners: so by the obedience of one, shall many be made ryghteous
[20] But the lawe in the meane tyme entred in, that sinne shoulde encrease. But where sinne was plenteous, grace was more plenteous
[21] That as sinne hath raigned vnto death: euen so myght grace raigne thorowe ryghteousnes vnto eternall lyfe, by Iesus Christe our Lorde
