Romans 5

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 So then, now that we have been justified by faith, we are at peace with God through our Lord JesusChrist;	1 Δικαιωθεντες λοιπον εκ πιστεως, εχομεν ειρηνην προς τον Θεον δια του Κυριου ημων Ιησου Χριστου,
2 it is through him, by faith, that we have been admitted into God's favour in which we are living, andlook forward exultantly to God's glory.	2 δια του οποιου ελαβομεν και την εισοδον δια της πιστεως εις την χαριν ταυτην, εις την οποιαν ισταμεθα και καυχωμεθα εις την ελπιδα της δοξης του Θεου.
3 Not only that; let us exult, too, in our hardships, understanding that hardship develops perseverance,	3 Και ουχι μονον τουτο, αλλα και καυχωμεθα εις τας θλιψεις, γινωσκοντες οτι θλιψις εργαζεται υπομονην,
4 and perseverance develops a tested character, something that gives us hope,	4 η δε υπομονη δοκιμην, η δε δοκιμη ελπιδα,
5 and a hope which will not let us down, because the love of God has been poured into our hearts by theHoly Spirit which has been given to us.	5 η δε ελπις δεν καταισχυνει, διοτι αγαπη του Θεου ειναι εκκεχυμενη εν ταις καρδιαις ημων δια Πνευματος Αγιου του δοθεντος εις ημας.
6 When we were stil helpless, at the appointed time, Christ died for the godless.	6 Επειδη ο Χριστος, οτε ημεθα ετι ασθενεις, απεθανε κατα τον ωρισμενον καιρον υπερ των ασεβων.
7 You could hardly find anyone ready to die even for someone upright; though it is just possible that, fora real y good person, someone might undertake to die.	7 Διοτι μολις υπερ δικαιου θελει αποθανει τις? επειδη υπερ του αγαθου ισως και τολμα τις να αποθανη?
8 So it is proof of God's own love for us, that Christ died for us while we were stil sinners.	8 αλλ' ο Θεος δεικνυει την εαυτου αγαπην εις ημας, διοτι ενω ημεις ημεθα ετι αμαρτωλοι, ο Χριστος απεθανεν υπερ ημων.
9 How much more can we be sure, therefore, that, now that we have been justified by his death, we shalbe saved through him from the retribution of God.	9 Πολλω μαλλον λοιπον αφου εδικαιωθημεν τωρα δια του αιματος αυτου, θελομεν σωθη απο της οργης δι' αυτου.
10 For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how muchmore can we be sure that, being now reconciled, we shal be saved by his life.	10 Διοτι εαν εχθροι οντες εφιλιωθημεν με τον Θεον δια του θανατου του Υιου αυτου, πολλω, μαλλον φιλιωθεντες θελομεν σωθη δια της ζωης αυτου?
11 What is more, we are filled with exultant trust in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whomwe have already gained our reconciliation.	11 και ουχι μονον τουτο, αλλα και καυχωμενοι εις τον Θεον δια του Κυριου ημων Ιησου Χριστου, δια του οποιου ελαβομεν τωρα την φιλιωσιν.
12 Wel then; it was through one man that sin came into the world, and through sin death, and thus deathhas spread through the whole human race because everyone has sinned.	12 Δια τουτο καθως δι' ενος ανθρωπου η αμαρτια εισηλθεν εις τον κοσμον και δια της αμαρτιας ο θανατος, και ουτω διηλθεν ο θανατος εις παντας ανθρωπους, επειδη παντες ημαρτον?
13 Sin already existed in the world before there was any law, even though sin is not reckoned whenthere is no law.	13 διοτι μεχρι του νομου ητο εν τω κοσμω η αμαρτια, αμαρτια ομως δεν λογιζεται οταν δεν ηναι νομος?
14 Nonetheless death reigned over al from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sin was not thebreaking of a commandment, as Adam's was. He prefigured the One who was to come . . .	14 αλλ' εβασιλευσεν ο θανατος απο Αδαμ μεχρι Μωυσεως και επι τους μη αμαρτησαντας κατα την ομοιοτητα της παραβασεως του Αδαμ, οστις ειναι τυπος του μελλοντος.
15 There is no comparison between the free gift and the offence. If death came to many through theoffence of one man, how much greater an effect the grace of God has had, coming to so many and so plentiful yas a free gift through the one man Jesus Christ!	15 Πλην δεν ειναι καθως το αμαρτημα, ουτω και το χαρισμα? διοτι αν δια το αμαρτημα του ενος απεθανον οι πολλοι, πολυ περισσοτερον η χαρις του Θεου και η δωρεα δια της χαριτος του ενος ανθρωπου Ιησου Χριστου επερισσευσεν εις τους πολλους.
16 Again, there is no comparison between the gift and the offence of one man. One single offencebrought condemnation, but now, after many offences, have come the free gift and so acquittal!	16 Και η δωρεα δεν ειναι καθως η δι' ενος αμαρτησαντος γενομενη κατακρισις? διοτι η κρισις εκ του ενος εγεινεν εις κατακρισιν των πολλων, το δε χαρισμα εκ πολλων αμαρτηματων εγεινεν εις δικαιωσιν.
17 It was by one man's offence that death came to reign over all, but how much greater the reign in lifeof those who receive the ful ness of grace and the gift of saving justice, through the one man, Jesus Christ.	17 Διοτι αν και δια το αμαρτημα του ενος ο θανατος εβασιλευσε δια του ενος, πολυ περισσοτερον οι λαμβανοντες την αφθονιαν της χαριτος και της δωρεας της δικαιοσυνης θελουσι βασιλευσει εν ζωη δια του ενος Ιησου Χριστου.
18 One man's offence brought condemnation on al humanity; and one man's good act has broughtjustification and life to all humanity.	18 Καθως λοιπον δι' ενος αμαρτηματος ηλθε κατακρισις εις παντας ανθρωπους, ουτω και δια μιας δικαιοσυνης ηλθεν εις παντας ανθρωπους δικαιωσις εις ζωην.
19 Just as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by one man's obedience are manyto be made upright.	19 Διοτι καθως δια της παρακοης του ενος ανθρωπου οι πολλοι κατεσταθησαν αμαρτωλοι, ουτω και δια της υπακοης του ενος οι πολλοι θελουσι κατασταθη δικαιοι.
20 When law came on the scene, it was to multiply the offences. But however much sin increased, gracewas always greater;	20 Παρεισηλθε δε ο νομος δια να περισσευση το αμαρτημα. Και οπου επερισσευσεν η αμαρτια, υπερεπερισσευσεν η χαρις,
21 so that as sin's reign brought death, so grace was to rule through saving justice that leads to eternallife through Jesus Christ our Lord.	21 ινα καθως εβασιλευσεν η αμαρτια δια του θανατου, ουτω και η χαρις βασιλευση δια της δικαιοσυνης εις ζωην αιωνιον δια Ιησου Χριστου του Κυριου ημων.
