12Therefore, as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin; and so death passed unto all men, for that all sinned:—
12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men1 because all sinned—
[1] 5:12 The Greek word anthropoi refers here to both men and women; also twice in verse 18
12 Wherefore, 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:
Death Came through Adam but Life Comes through Christ
12 Because of this, just as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death spread to all people because all sinned.
12because of this, even as through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin—death; and thus to all men death passed through, for that all sinned;
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned--
12When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned.
