Romans 5:12-21 Because of this, even as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death passed to all men, inasmuch as all sinned.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Because of this, even as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death passed to all men, inasmuch as all sinned. ¹³ For sin was in the world until Law, but sin is not charged where there is no law; ¹⁴ but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even on those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is a type of the coming One . ¹⁵ But the free gift shall not be also like the offense. For if by the offense of the one the many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift in grace, which is of the one Man, Jesus Christ, did abound to the many. ¹⁶ And the gift shall not be as by one having sinned; for indeed the judgment was of one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offenses to justification. ¹⁷ For if by the offense of the one death reigned through the one, much more those who are receiving the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness shall rule in life by the One, Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ So then, as through one offense it was toward all men to condemnation, so also by one accomplished righteousness toward all men to justification of life. ¹⁹ For as through the one man's disobedience the many were constituted sinners, so also through the obedience of the One the many shall be constituted righteous. ²⁰ But Law came in beside, that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace much more abounded, ²¹ that as sin ruled in death, so also grace might rule through righteousness to everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
