International Standard Version
We Enjoy Peace with God through Jesus
5 Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have[a] peace with God through our Lord Jesus the Messiah.[b] 2 Through him we have also obtained[c] access by faith[d] into this grace by which we have been established, and we boast[e] because of our hope in God’s glory. 3 Not only that, but we also boast[f] in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, 4 endurance produces character, and character produces hope. 5 Now this hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
