Romans 5:15-21

Thomson(i) 15 but the free gift is not as the transgression; for if for the transgression of the one, the many died; much more hath the favour of God, and the free gift by the favour of the other man, Jesus Christ, superabounded to the many: 16 nor is this free gift as in the case when one sinned" for the sentence was a condemnation for one offence, but the 17 free gift is an acquittal from many transgressions. For if for the offence of the one, death reigned by that one; much more shall they who receive the superabundance of this favour and of the free gift of this acquittal, reign in life by the other, namely Jesus Christ. 18 Therefore as by one transgression there was a sentence of condemnation for all men; so by one acquittal there is an adjudication of life for all men. 19 For as by the disobedience of the one man, the many were ranked as sinners, so also by the obedience of the other man, the many will be ranked as righteous. 20 Now the law came in a little way, so that transgression abounded, but where sin abounded, favour superabounded, 21 that as sin had reigned by death, so favour might reign by means' of a justification for everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
