Romans 5:3-8
English Standard Version
3 Not only that, but we (A)rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering (B)produces endurance, 4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, 5 and (C)hope does not put us to shame, because God's love (D)has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
6 For (E)while we were still weak, at the right time (F)Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— 8 but (G)God shows his love for us in that (H)while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 5:3-8
New International Version
3 Not only so, but we[a] also glory in our sufferings,(A) because we know that suffering produces perseverance;(B) 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope(C) does not put us to shame, because God’s love(D) has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,(E) who has been given to us.
6 You see, at just the right time,(F) when we were still powerless,(G) Christ died for the ungodly.(H) 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.(I)
