Denn so um des einen Sünde willen der Tod geherrscht hat durch den einen, viel mehr werden die, so da empfangen die Fülle der Gnade und der Gabe zur Gerechtigkeit, herrschen im Leben durch einen, Jesum Christum.
Porque, si por un delito reinó la muerte por uno, mucho más reinarán en vida por un Jesucristo los que reciben la abundancia de gracia, y del don de la justicia.
Si par l'offense d'un seul la mort a régné par lui seul, à plus forte raison ceux qui reçoivent l'abondance de la grâce et du don de la justice régneront-ils dans la vie par Jésus-Christ lui seul.
Perciocchè, se, per l’offesa di quell’uno, la morte ha regnato per esso uno; molto maggiormente coloro che ricevono l’abbondanza della grazia, e del dono della giustizia, regneranno in vita, per l’uno, che è Gesù Cristo.
Porque, se pela ofensa de um só, a morte reinou por esse, muito mais os que recebem a abundância da graça, e do dom da justiça, reinarão em vida por um só, Jesus Cristo.
若因一人的過犯,死就因這一人掌權,那些受洪恩又蒙所賜之義的,豈不更要因耶穌基督一人在他們生命中掌權嗎?
