⁴⁵ And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

²⁷ And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

¹⁷ For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

²² For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

²¹ That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

²² All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

²⁰ For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

¹¹ And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?

⁷ But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
