Romans 5:16“gift”kai ouk hōs dia henou hamartaratou tem dōrēmem; tem men gar krimem ek heneu eis katakrimem, tem de charismem ek polleiu paraptōmeiu eis dikaiōmem.Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification.
James 1:17“gift”Pantas dosias agathas kai pantem dōrēmem teleiem anōthen atō, katabainarōtem apo tou patērou teiu fōteiu, para ho ouk eniatō parallagas ē tropau aposkiasmem.Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom there is no change or shifting shadow.
