Romans 5:19-21

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁹ For just as by the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous. ²⁰ But law came in, with the result that the trespass multiplied; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, ²¹ so that, just as sin exercised dominion in death, so grace might also exercise dominion through justification^[a] leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
