Romans 5:19-21
The Voice
19 Just as through one man’s defiant disobedience every one of us were made sinners, so through the willing obedience of the one man many of us will be made right.
20 When the law came into the picture, sin grew and grew; but wherever sin grew and spread, God’s grace was there in fuller, greater measure. No matter how much sin crept in, there was always more grace. 21 In the same way that sin reigned in the sphere of death, now grace reigns through God’s restorative justice, eclipsing death and leading to eternal life through the Anointed One, Jesus our Lord, the Liberating King.

Romans 5:19-21
New International Version
19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man(A) the many were made sinners,(B) so also through the obedience(C) of the one man the many will be made righteous.
20 The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase.(D) But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,(E) 21 so that, just as sin reigned in death,(F) so also grace(G) might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life(H) through Jesus Christ our Lord.
