Sinned (hrmarton). Constative second aorist active indicative of amartanw as in Romans 5:12. This tense gathers up the whole race into one statement (a timeless aorist).
And fall short (kai usterountai). Present middle indicative of usterew, to be usterov (comparative) too late, continued action, still fall short. It is followed by the ablative case as here, the case of separation.
