Romans 4:22-5:11

New American Standard Bible

²² Therefore ^(A)it was also credited to him as righteousness. ²³ Now ^(B)not for his sake only was it written that it was credited to him, ²⁴ but for our sake also, to whom it will be credited, to us ^(C)who believe in Him who ^(D)raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, ²⁵ He who was ^(E)delivered over because of our wrongdoings, and was ^(F)raised because of our justification.

Results of Justification

5 ^(G)Therefore, having been justified by faith, ^[a](H)we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, ² through whom we also have ^(I)obtained our introduction by faith into this grace ^(J)in which we stand; and ^[b]we celebrate in hope of the glory of God. ^3 (K)And not only this, but ^[c]we also ^(L)celebrate in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about ^(M)perseverance; ⁴ and ^(N)perseverance, ^(O)proven character; and proven character, hope; ⁵ and hope ^(P)does not disappoint, because the love of God has been ^(Q)poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

⁶ For while we were still ^(R)helpless, ^(S)at the right time ^(T)Christ died for the ungodly. ⁷ For one will hardly die for a righteous person; ^[d]though perhaps for the good person someone would even dare to die. ⁸ But God ^(U)demonstrates ^(V)His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, ^(W)Christ died for us. ⁹ Much more then, having now been justified ^[e](X)by His blood, we shall be saved ^(Y)from the wrath of God through Him. ¹⁰ For if while we were ^(Z)enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved ^[f](AA)by His life. ^11 (AB)And not only this, but ^[g]we also celebrate in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received ^(AC)the reconciliation.
