[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - For if R175 those who are of F80 the Law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise is nullified;
| |
- 4:15 - [ In Context | Read Chapter | Discuss this Verse ]
[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - for the R176 Law brings about wrath, but where R177 there is no law, there also is no violation.

[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - Therefore, just as through one R223 man sin entered into the world, and death R224 through sin, and so R225 death spread to all men, because all sinned--

[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - But the F95 free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the R229 one the R230 many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the R231 grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
| |
- 5:16 - [ In Context | Read Chapter | Discuss this Verse ]
[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - The gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned; for on the one hand the R232 judgment arose from one transgression resulting F96 in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift arose from many transgressions resulting F97 in justification.

- 5:17 - [ In Context | Read Chapter | Discuss this Verse ]
[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through R233 the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign R234 in life through the One, Jesus Christ.

[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - For as through the one man's disobedience the R238 many were R239 made sinners, even so through the R240 obedience of the One the R238 many will be made righteous.

[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - The R241 F100 Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace R242 abounded all the more,

[ Original: Greek | Multi-Translation | Make Poster ] - so that, as sin R243 reigned in death, even so grace R244 would reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
