Romans 5:14 in Context — Romans 5

12 C’est pourquoi, comme par un seul homme le péché est entré dans le monde, et par le péché la mort, et qu’ainsi la mort s’est étendue sur tous les hommes, parce que tous ont péché,…

13 car jusqu’à la loi le péché était dans le monde. Or, le péché n’est pas imputé, quand il n’y a point de loi.

14 Cependant la mort a régné depuis Adam jusqu’à Moïse, même sur ceux qui n’avaient pas péché par une transgression semblable à celle d’Adam, lequel est la figure de celui qui devait venir.

15 Mais il n’en est pas du don gratuit comme de l’offense; car, si par l’offense d’un seul il en est beaucoup qui sont morts, à plus forte raison la grâce de Dieu et le don de la grâce venant d’un seul homme, Jésus-Christ, ont-ils été abondamment répandus sur beaucoup.

16 Et il n’en est pas du don comme de ce qui est arrivé par un seul qui a péché; car c’est après une seule offense que le jugement est devenu condamnation, tandis que le don gratuit devient justification après plusieurs offenses.
