Romans 5:4-9
New King James Version
4 (A)and perseverance, [a]character; and character, hope. 5 (B)Now hope does not disappoint, (C)because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Christ in Our Place
6 For when we were still without strength, [b]in due time (D)Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But (E)God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified (F)by His blood, we shall be saved (G)from wrath through Him.

Romans 5:4-9
New International Version
4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope(A) does not put us to shame, because God’s love(B) has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,(C) who has been given to us.
6 You see, at just the right time,(D) when we were still powerless,(E) Christ died for the ungodly.(F) 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.(G)
9 Since we have now been justified(H) by his blood,(I) how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath(J) through him!
