For the iudgement was of one into condemnation: but the gyfte, of many sinnes into iustification. 17 For yf by the sinne of one, death raigned by the meanes of one: much more they, whiche receaue aboundaunce of grace, and of the gyfte of ryghteousnes, shall raigne in life by the meanes of one, Iesus Christe. 18 Lykewyse then, as by the sinne of one sinne came on all men to condempnation: euen so, by the ryghteousnes of one good came vpon all men to the ryghteousnes of lyfe. 19 For as by one mans disobedience many became sinners: so by the obedience of one, shall many be made ryghteous. 20 But the lawe in the meane tyme entred in, that sinne shoulde encrease.
