For as many as have sinned without the law, shall perish also without the law: and as many as have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law;

(as it is written "that I have constituted thee father of many nations,") before God, in whom he trusted, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth things that are not as if existing.

Who contrary to hope, in hope believed, that he should be the father of many nations, according to what was said, "So shall thy seed be."

But not as the transgression, so also [is] the gift. For if by the transgression of one the many became dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is in that one man, Christ Jesus, hath abounded unto many.

And the gift [is] not as for one who sinned: for the judgment indeed [came] by one to condemnation, but the free gift [leads] to justification from many offences.

For as by the disobedience of one man the many were constituted sinners; so also by the obedience of one shall the many be constituted righteous.

Do ye not know, that as many as have been baptised into Christ Jesus have been baptised into his death?

For as many as are guided by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

For whom he foreknew, he predestinated also to a conformity with the image of his Son, that he might be the first-begotten among many brethren.

For as we have in one body many members, but the members, though many, have not the same function,

so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one reciprocally members of each other.

Wherefore also I have found many things to hinder me from coming to you;

but now having no longer cause to detain me in these regions, and having an earnest desire to come unto you for many years past,

that ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that you assist her in every matter wherein she may have need of you: for she hath also been a succourer of many, and of me myself.

Salute Mary, who laboured in many things to serve us.
