# abounded

"increased"

# as sin ruled in death

Here Paul speaks of "sin" as if it were a king that ruled. AT: "as sin resulted in death" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# even so grace might rule through righteousness for everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord

Paul speaks of "grace" here as if it were a king that ruled. AT: "grace gave people everlasting life through the righteousness of Jesus Christ our Lord" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
