Romans 5:6-11
Legacy Standard Bible
6 For while we were still (A)weak, (B)at the right time (C)Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For one will hardly die for a righteous man, [a]though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. 8 But God (D)demonstrates (E)His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, (F)Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified [b](G)by His blood, we shall be saved (H)from the wrath of God through Him. 10 For if while we were (I)enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved [c](J)by His life. 11 (K)And not only this, [d]but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received (L)the reconciliation.

Romans 5:6-11
Lexham English Bible
6 For while[a] we were still helpless, yet at the proper time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For only rarely will someone die on behalf of a righteous person (for on behalf of a good person possibly someone might even dare to die), 8 but God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while[b] we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Therefore, by much more, because we[c] have been declared righteous now by his blood, we will be saved through him from the wrath. 10 For if, while we[d] were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, by much more, having been reconciled, we will be saved by his life. 11 And not only this, but also we are boasting in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
