Romans 5:6-11
New American Standard Bible
6 For while we were still (A)helpless, (B)at the right time (C)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 (D)demonstrates (E)His own love toward us, in that while we were still 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, but [d]we also celebrate in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received (L)the reconciliation.

Romans 5:6-11
Revised Standard Version
6 While we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man—though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die. 8 But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. 9 Since, therefore, we are now justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. 10 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. 11 Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.
