Why does my Bible say something different?
- Romans 5:1: “we have peace” or “let us have peace”?
Most English Bibles read “being justified by faith, we have peace with God.” The Douay-Rheims reads “let us have peace.” The difference in Greek is a single vowel, echomen or echōmen, which sounded alike when read aloud. The oldest manuscripts mostly favour “let us have,” but most scholars and the Patriarchal Text read “we have.” The teaching of the passage is the same either way.
