Romans 5:7

(For rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person perhaps someone might possibly dare to die.) ¹ 

Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.

For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.

Now, no one is likely to die for a good person, though someone might be willing to die for a person who is especially good.

We can understand someone dying for a person worth dying for, and we can understand how someone good and noble could inspire us to selfless sacrifice.

Now it is hard for anyone to give his life even for an upright man, though it might be that for a good man someone would give his life.

Indeed, rarely will anyone die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person someone might actually dare to die.

For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

(For rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person perhaps someone might possibly dare to die.) ¹
