15 But God's free gift is not at all to be compared to the trespass . For if many died through one man's falling away (his lapse, his offense), much more profusely did God's grace and the free gift through the undeserved favor of the one Man Jesus Christ abound and overflow to and for many. 16 Nor is the free gift at all to be compared to the effect of that one sin. For the sentence of one brought condemnation, whereas the free gift many transgressions brings justification (an act of righteousness). 17 For if because of one man's trespass (lapse, offense) death reigned through that one, much more surely will those who receive overflowing grace (unmerited favor) and the free gift of righteousness reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). 18 Well then, as one man's trespass to condemnation for all men, so one Man's act of righteousness to acquittal and right standing with God and life for all men. 19 For just as by one man's disobedience (failing to hear, heedlessness, and carelessness) the many were constituted sinners, so by one Man's obedience the many will be constituted righteous (made acceptable to God, brought into right standing with Him).
