Romans

1Being justified therefore by faith, let us have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2By whom also we have access through faith into this grace, wherein we stand, and glory in the hope of the glory of the sons of God.

3And not only so; but we glory also in tribulations, knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4And patience trial; and trial hope;

5And hope confoundeth not: because the charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, who is given to us.

6For why did Christ, when as yet we were weak, according to the time, die for the ungodly?

7For scarce for a just man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die.

8But God commendeth his charity towards us; because when as yet we were sinners, according to the time,

9Christ died for us; much more therefore, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.

10For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son; much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

11And not only so; but also we glory in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received reconciliation.

12Wherefore as by one man sin entered into this world, and by sin death; and so death passed upon all men, in whom all have sinned.

13For until the law sin was in the world; but sin was not imputed, when the law was not.

14But death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even over them also who have not sinned after the similitude of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come.

15But not as the offence, so also the gift. For if by the offence of one, many died; much more the grace of God, and the gift, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

16And not as it was by one sin, so also is the gift. For judgment indeed was by one unto condemnation; but grace is of many offences, unto justification.

17For if by one man’s offence death reigned through one; much more they who receive abundance of grace, and of the gift, and of justice, shall reign in life through one, Jesus Christ.

18Therefore, as by the offence of one, unto all men to condemnation; so also by the justice of one, unto all men to justification of life.

19For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners; so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just.

20Now the law entered in, that sin might abound. And where sin abounded, grace did more abound.

21That as sin hath reigned to death; so also grace might reign by justice unto life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

因信称义的福

1我们既因信称义，就借着我们的主耶稣基督得与 神相和。

2我们又借着他，因信得进入现在所站的这恩典中，并且欢欢喜喜盼望 神的荣耀。

3不但如此，就是在患难中也是欢欢喜喜的；因为知道患难生忍耐，

4忍耐生老练，老练生盼望；

5盼望不至于羞耻，因为所赐给我们的圣灵将 神的爱浇灌在我们心里。

6因我们还软弱的时候，基督就按所定的日期为罪人死。

7为义人死，是少有的；为仁人死，或者有敢做的。

8惟有基督在我们还作罪人的时候为我们死， 神的爱就在此向我们显明了。

9现在我们既靠着他的血称义，就更要借着他免去 神的忿怒。

10因为我们作仇敌的时候，且借着 神儿子的死，得与 神和好；既已和好，就更要因他的生得救了。

11不但如此，我们既借着我主耶稣基督得与 神和好，也就借着他以 神为乐。

亚当和基督

12这就如罪是从一人入了世界，死又是从罪来的，于是死就临到众人，因为众人都犯了罪。

13没有律法之先，罪已经在世上；但没有律法，罪也不算罪。

14然而从亚当到摩西，死就作了王，连那些不与亚当犯一样罪过的，也在他的权下。亚当乃是那以后要来之人的预像。

15只是过犯不如恩赐，若因一人的过犯，众人都死了，何况 神的恩典，与那因耶稣基督一人恩典中的赏赐，岂不更加倍地临到众人吗？

16因一人犯罪就定罪，也不如恩赐，原来审判是由一人而定罪，恩赐乃是由许多过犯而称义。

17若因一人的过犯，死就因这一人作了王，何况那些受洪恩又蒙所赐之义的，岂不更要因耶稣基督一人在生命中作王吗？

18如此说来，因一次的过犯，众人都被定罪；照样，因一次的义行，众人也就被称义得生命了。

19因一人的悖逆，众人成为罪人；照样，因一人的顺从，众人也成为义了。

20律法本是外添的，叫过犯显多；只是罪在哪里显多，恩典就更显多了。

21就如罪作王叫人死；照样，恩典也借着义作王，叫人因我们的主耶稣基督得永生。
