Rom.5:17 17εἰ γὰρ τῷ τοῦ ἑνὸς παραπτώματι, ὁ θάνατος ἐβασίλευσεν διὰ τοῦ ἑνός· πολλῷ μᾶλλον οἱ τὴν περισσείαν τῆς χάριτος καὶ τῆς δωρεᾶς τῆς δικαιοσύνης, λαμβάνοντες ἐν ζωῇ βασιλεύσουσιν διὰ τοῦ ἑνός, Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ. 17 For {NEQ} the sin of this one man , Adam , caused {NEQ} death to rule over many {RPT} {RPT} {RPT} . But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and his gift of {NEQ} righteousness , for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man , Jesus Christ .
