Romans 5:1-11 ▼

1 Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

2 through whom also we have the access by faith into this grace in which we have stood, and we boast on the hope of the glory of God.

3 And not only [so], but we also boast in the tribulations, knowing that the tribulation works endurance;

4 and the endurance, experience; and the experience, hope;

5 and the hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God has been poured forth in our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.

6 For in our being still ailing, Christ in due time died for the impious;

7 for scarcely for a righteous man will anyone die, for the good man perhaps someone also dares to die;

8 and God commends His own love to us, that, in our being still sinners, Christ died for us;

9 much more, then, having been declared righteous now in His blood, we will be saved through Him from the wrath;

10 for if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we will be saved in His life.

11 And not only [so], but we are also boasting in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we now received the reconciliation;
