What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
Or don’t you know that all of us who were immersed into Messiah Yeshua were immersed into his death?
4 ⲇ̅ ⲁⲩⲧⲟⲙⲥⲛ ϭⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲧⲛⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲱⲱⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲓϩⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲃⲣⲣⲉ ⲛⲱⲛϩ
We were buried therefore with him through immersion into death, that just as Messiah was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
6 ⲋ̅ ⲉⲛⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲉϣⲧ ⲡⲉⲛⲣⲙⲛⲁⲥ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉⲕⲁⲧⲁⲣⲅⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲉⲧⲙⲧⲣⲉⲛⲣϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ϭⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϫⲓⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ
knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.
For he who has died has been freed from sin.
But if we died with Messiah, we believe that we will also live with him,
knowing that Messiah, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Messiah Yeshua our Lord.
Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ ⲛϫⲓ ⲛϭⲟⲛⲥ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲏ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲏ ⲙⲡⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ
Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲏⲡ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲟ ⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲡⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ ⲛⲧⲉⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϯ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ
But thanks be to God that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.
Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⲉⲓϫⲱ ⲙⲡⲁⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲧⲁⲥⲑⲉⲛⲓⲁ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲧⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲥⲓⲁ ⲙⲛ ⲧⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲉⲩⲧⲃⲃⲟ
I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.
For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
21 ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ ⲁϣ ϭⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲧⲏ ⲧⲛⲉϥ ⲙⲡⲓⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲓϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲑⲁⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲙⲟⲩ
What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
