24 ^gand are justified ^hby his grace as a gift, ⁱthrough the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

15 But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for ^bmany. 16 And the free gift is not like the result of that one man’s sin. For ^cthe judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brought ^djustification. 17 For if, because of one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness ^ereign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.

23 ^dFor the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
