Romans 5:12-14
World English Bible
12 Therefore as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; so death passed to all men, because all sinned. 13 For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.

Romans 5:12-14
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.
