¹Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

¹Naizvozvo zvatinonzi takarurama nerutendo, tine rugare kuna Mwari kubudikidza naIshe wedu Jesu Kristu;

²By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

²watakawanawo naye mapindiro nerutendo munyasha idzi dzatinomira madziri; tichizvikudza mutariro yekubwinya kwaMwari.

³And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

³Zvisati zviri izvo chete, asi tichizvikudzawo mumatambudziko, tichiziva kuti dambudziko rinouyisa kutsungirira;

⁴And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

⁴kutsungirira kusimba; nekusimba tariro;

⁵And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

⁵tariro hainyadzisi, nekuti rudo rwaMwari rwakadirwa mumoyo yedu neMweya Mutsvene unopiwa kwatiri.

⁶For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

⁶Nekuti tichiri pakushaiwa simba, Kristu panguva yakafanira wakafira vasingadi Mwari.

⁷For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

⁷Nekuti zvinorema kuti umwe afire munhu wakarurama; nekuti zvimwe kungava neumwe ungatsunga kufira wakanaka.

⁸But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

⁸Asi Mwari unosimbisa rudo rwake omene kwatiri, pakuti tichiri vatadzi Kristu wakatifira.

⁹Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

⁹Zvikuru zvino zvatinonzi hatina mhosva neropa rake, tichaponeswa kubudikidza naye pahasha.

¹⁰For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

¹⁰Nekuti kana pataiva vavengi takayananiswa naMwari nerufu rweMwanakomana wake, kunyanya kana tichiyananiswa tichaponeswa neupenyu hwake;

¹¹And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

¹¹zvisati zviri saizvozvo chete, asi tinozvikudzawo muna Mwari kubudikidza naIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, watakapiwa zvino naye iko kuyananiswa.

¹²Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

¹²Naizvozvo chivi sezvachakapinda munyika nemunhu umwe, nerufu rukapinda nechivi; naizvozvo rufu rwakapfuurira kumunhu wose, nekuti vose vakatadza;

¹³(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

¹³nekuti kusvika murairo wavapo chivi chakanga chiri panyika; nekuti chivi hachiverengerwi pasinomurairo.

¹⁴Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

¹⁴Asi rufu rwakabata ushe kubva kuna Adhamu kusvikira kuna Mozisi, kunyange nepamusoro pevasina kutadza sezvakaita mufananidzo wokudarika kwaAdhamu, unova iye mufananidzo wewakange achizouya.

¹⁵But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

¹⁵Asi hazvina kuita sekudarika, zvakaitawo chipo chekungopiwa pachena. Nekuti kana kubudikidza nekudarika kweumwe vazhinji vakafa, kunyanya nyasha dzaMwari nechipo chakauya nenyasha dzemunhu mumwe, Jesu Kristu, zvakawandira vazhinji.

¹⁶And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.

¹⁶Asi chipo hachina kuita seumwe unotadza; nekuti kutonga kwaiva neumwe kuchienda mukupiwa mhosva, asi chipo chenyasha chinobva pazvitadzo zvizhinji chichienda mukururamiswa.

¹⁷For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

¹⁷Nekuti kana nekudarika kwemumwe rufu rwakatonga naiyeyu oga kunyanyisa, avo vanogamuchira kuwanda kwenyasha, nekwechipo chekururama vachatonga paupenyu kubudikidza neumwe, Jesu Kristu.

¹⁸Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

¹⁸Naizvozvo, kutonga sezvakwakauya kuvanhu vose nekudarika kweumwe, kuti vapiwe mhosva; saizvozvowo nekururama kweumwe, nyasha dzakauya pamusoro pevanhu vose, zvikapa kururamisirwa kuupenyu.

¹⁹For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

¹⁹Nekuti sezvo nekusateerera kwemunhu umwe vazhinji vakaitwa vatadzi, saizvozvo nekuteerera kwemumwe, vazhinji vachaitwa vakarurama.

²⁰Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

²⁰Asi murairo wakapinda kuti kudarika kuwande; asi zvivi pazvakawanda, nyasha dzakawanda nekupfuurisa;

²¹That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

²¹kuti kunyange chivi sezvachakatonga parufu, saizvozvo nyasha dzitongewo kubudikidza nekururama kusvika kuupenyu hwusingaperi naJesu Kristu Ishe wedu.
