< Romans 6 >

1 What then will we say? (Shall we continue *N+k+o) in sin that grace may abound? 2 Never would it be! Who we died to sin, how still will we live in it? 3 Or are you unaware that as many as were baptized into Christ Jesus, into the death of Him were baptized? 4 We were buried therefore with Him through baptism into death, so that just as was raised up Christ out from [the] dead through the glory of the Father, so also we ourselves in newness of life may walk. 5 If for united we have become in the likeness of the death of Him, certainly also of the resurrection we will be; 6 this knowing that the old of us self was crucified with [Him], so that may be annulled the body of sin [that] no longer being enslaved we to sin. 7 The [one] for having died he has been freed from sin. 8 If now we died with Christ, we believe that also we will live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ having been raised up out from [the] dead no longer no longer dies; Death over Him no longer no longer rules. 10 That which for He died, to sin He died once for all; that which however He lives, He lives to God. 11 So also do consider yourselves to be dead indeed to sin living however to God in Christ Jesus (the Lord of us. *K) 12 Not therefore should reign sin in the mortal of you body in order to obey (it in *K) the desires of it, 13 Neither do yield the members of you [as] instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but do yield yourselves to God (as *N+kO) out from [the] dead living and the members of you [as] instruments of righteousness to God. 14 Sin for you not will rule over; not for you are under law but under grace. 15 What then? (Shall we sin *N+kO) because not we are under law but under grace? Never would it be! 16 Not know you that to whom you yield yourselves [as] slaves for obedience, slaves you are to him whom you obey, whether of sin to death or of obedience to righteousness? 17 Thanks [be] however to God that you were slaves of sin, you have become obedient now from [the] heart to which you were handed over to the form of teaching. 18 Having been set free now from sin you have become slaves to righteousness. 19 In human terms I speak on account of the weakness of the flesh of you. For as for you yielded the members of you [as] slaves to impurity and to lawlessness unto lawlessness, so now do yield the members of you [as] slaves to righteousness unto sanctification. 20 When for slaves you were of sin, free you were from righteousness. 21 What therefore fruit had you then in the [things] of which now you are ashamed? The for end of those things [is] death. 22 Now however having been set free from sin having become slaves now to God you have the fruit of you unto sanctification, now the end [is] life eternal. (aiōnios g166) 23 The for wages of sin [is] death, but the gift of God life eternal in Christ Jesus the Lord of us. (aiōnios g166)
