16. And 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.
17. For 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.
18. Therefore, 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.
19. For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners; so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just.
20. Now the law entered in, that sin might abound. And where sin abounded, grace did more abound.
21. That as sin hath reigned to death; so also grace might reign by justice unto life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
