10For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;
11And not only so, but we have joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we are now at peace with God.
12For this reason, as through one man sin came into the world, and death because of sin, and so death came to all men, because all have done evil:
13Because, till the law came, sin was in existence, but sin is not put to the account of anyone when there is no law to be broken.
14But still death had power from Adam till Moses, even over those who had not done wrong like Adam, who is a picture of him who was to come.
15But the free giving of God is not like the wrongdoing of man. For if, by the wrongdoing of one man death came to numbers of men, much more did the grace of God, and the free giving by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, come to men.
16And the free giving has not the same effect as the sin of one: for the effect of one man's sin was punishment by the decision of God, but the free giving had power to give righteousness to wrongdoers in great number.
