Romans 5:6

---

← Romans 5:5	Romans 5:6 (KJV)	Romans 5:7 →
And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.	For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.	For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
