Romans 5:5-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy Spirit that has been given to us.(A) 6 For Christ, while we were still helpless, yet died at the appointed time for the ungodly. 7 Indeed, only with difficulty does one die for a just person, though perhaps for a good person one might even find courage to die.[a] 8 But God proves his love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.(B) 9 How much more then, since we are now justified by his blood, will we be saved through him from the wrath.(C) 10 Indeed, if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, once reconciled, will we be saved by his life.(D) 11 Not only that, but we also boast of God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

5 and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
6 For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Indeed, rarely will anyone die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person someone might actually dare to die. 8 But God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us. 9 Much more surely then, now that we have been justified by his blood, will we be saved through him from the wrath of God.[a] 10 For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more surely, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life. 11 But more than that, we even boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

5 This hope does not disappoint us, for God has poured out his love into our hearts by means of the Holy Spirit, who is God's gift to us.
6 For when we were still helpless, Christ died for the wicked at the time that God chose. 7 It is a difficult thing for someone to die for a righteous person. It may even be that someone might dare to die for a good person. 8 But God has shown us how much he loves us—it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us! 9 By his blood[a] we are now put right with God; how much more, then, will we be saved by him from God's anger! 10 We were God's enemies, but he made us his friends through the death of his Son. Now that we are God's friends, how much more will we be saved by Christ's life! 11 But that is not all; we rejoice because of what God has done through our Lord Jesus Christ, who has now made us God's friends.

5 and hope (A)does not disappoint, because the love of God has been (B)poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 For while we were still (C)helpless, (D)at the right time (E)Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For one will hardly die for a righteous person; [a]though perhaps for the good person someone would even dare to die. 8 But God (F)demonstrates (G)His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, (H)Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified [b](I)by His blood, we shall be saved (J)from the wrath of God through Him. 10 For if while we were (K)enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved [c](L)by His life. 11 (M)And not only this, but [d]we also celebrate in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received (N)the reconciliation.

Romans 5:5-11
New International Version
5 And hope(A) does not put us to shame, because God’s love(B) has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,(C) who has been given to us.
6 You see, at just the right time,(D) when we were still powerless,(E) Christ died for the ungodly.(F) 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.(G)
9 Since we have now been justified(H) by his blood,(I) how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath(J) through him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies,(K) we were reconciled(L) to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!(M) 11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.(N)
