New International Reader's Version

Romans 5:5-10 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

5. And hope will never let us down. God has poured his love into our hearts. He did it through the Holy Spirit, whom he has given to us.

6. At just the right time Christ died for ungodly people. He died for us when we had no power of our own.

7. It is unusual for anyone to die for a godly person. Maybe someone would be willing to die for a good person.

8. But here is how God has shown his love for us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

9. The blood of Christ has made us right with God. So we are even more sure that Jesus will save us from God's anger.

10. Once we were God's enemies. But we have been brought back to him because his Son has died for us. Now that God has brought us back, we are even more secure. We know that we will be saved because Christ lives.
