¹⁸ So then as through one trespass `the judgment came' unto all men to condemnation; even so through one act of righteousness `the free gift came' unto all men to justification of life.

⁹ But we behold him who hath been made a little lower than the angels, `even' Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste of death for every `man'.

⁴ who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.

⁵ For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, `himself' man, Christ Jesus,

⁶ who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony `to be borne' in its own times;

²² For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.

¹⁹ For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one shall the many be made righteous.

¹⁵ But not as the trespass, so also `is' the free gift. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound unto the many.

¹⁹ Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it speaketh to them that are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God:

²⁰ because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight; for through the law `cometh' the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;

²⁶ And they came unto John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.

⁷ The same came for witness, that he might bear witness of the light, that all might believe through him.
