Romans 5:12-14
Worldwide English (New Testament)
12 One man [Adam] did a wrong thing. And the wrong thing he did made him die. So all men die because all have done wrong things.
13 People in the world were not right with God before he gave the law. But wrong things are not punished when there is no law.
14 Yet death ruled over people from Adam's time to Moses' time. It even ruled over the people who were not as wrong as Adam. Adam was like a person who would come later.

Romans 5:12-14
New International Version
Death Through Adam, Life Through Christ
12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man,(A) and death through sin,(B) and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned(C)—
13 To be sure, sin was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not charged against anyone’s account where there is no law.(D) 14 Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam,(E) who is a pattern of the one to come.(F)
