6For while we were still weak, at the right time Messiah died for the ungodly.

7For hardly will anyone die for a righteous person; though perhaps for a good person someone might even dare to die.

8But God demonstrates his own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Messiah died for us.

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

10For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life.

11And not only that, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus the Messiah, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
