International Standard Version
Death in Adam, Life in the Messiah
12 Just as sin entered the world through one man, and death resulted from sin, therefore everyone dies, because everyone has sinned. 13 Certainly sin was in the world before the Law was given,[a] but no record of sin is kept when there is no Law. 14 Nevertheless, death ruled from the time of[b] Adam to Moses, even over those who did not sin in the same way Adam did when he disobeyed.[c] He is a foreshadowing of the one who would come.
