1 Iustificati igitur ex fide,
pacem habemus ad Deum per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum,
2 per quem et accessum habemus fide in gratiam istam,
in qua stamus et gloriamur in spe gloriae Dei.
3 Non solum autem, sed et gloriamur in tribulationibus,
scientes quod tribulatio patientiam operatur,
4 patientia autem probationem, probatio vero spem;
5 spes autem non confundit,
quia caritas Dei diffusa est in cordibus nostris per Spiritum Sanctum,
qui datus est nobis.

1* Therefore, since we are justified by faith,
we *have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
2* Through him we have obtained access * to this grace in which we stand,
and we * rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God.
3* More than that, we * rejoice in our sufferings,
knowing that suffering produces endurance,
4 and endurance produces character, and character produces hope,
5* and hope does not disappoint us,
because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit
which has been given to us.

(Romans 5:1-5)
