Romans 5:1-5

Holman Christian Standard Bible

Faith Triumphs

5 Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith,^(A) we have peace^[a] with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.^{(B) 2} We have also obtained access through Him^(C) by faith^[b] into this grace in which we stand,^(D) and we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. ³ And not only that,^(E) but we also rejoice in our afflictions,^(F) because we know that affliction produces endurance,^{(G) 4} endurance produces proven character,^(H) and proven character produces hope. ⁵ This hope will not disappoint us,^(I) because God’s love has been poured out in our hearts^(J) through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
