1 What then shall we say? ought we to continue in the sin, so that the favor may abound?
2 Not let it be. Who we died by the sin, how still shall we live in it?
3 Or are you ignorant, that as many as were dipped into Anointed Jesus, into the death of him were dipped?
4 We were buried together therefore with him through the dipping into the death, that as was raised up Anointed out of dead ones through the glory of the Father, so also we in newness of life should walk.
5 If for planted together we have become in the likeness of the death of him, certainly also of the resurrection we shall be;
6 this knowing, that the old of us man was crucified with, that might be rendered powerless the body of the sin, of the no longer to be enslaved us in the sin;
7 he for having died has been justified from the sin.
8 If but we died with Anointed, we believe, that also we shall live with him,
9 knowing, that Anointed having been raised out of dead ones, no longer dies; death of him no longer lords over.
10 Which for he died, by the sin he died once for all; which but he lives, he lives by the God.
11 So also you count yourselves dead ones indeed by the sin, living ones but by the God, in Anointed Jesus.
12 Not therefore let reign the sin, in the mortal of you body, in order that to obey;
13 nor present you the members of you weapons of unrighteousness to the sin; but present you yourselves to the God, as out of dead ones living, and the members of you weapons of righteousness to the God.
14 Sin for to you not shall lord over; not for you are under law, but under favor.
15 What then? shall we sin, because not we are under law, but under favor? Not let it be.
16 Not you know, that to whom you present yourselves slaves for obedience, slaves you are to whom you are obedient, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 Thanks but to the God, that you were slaves of the sin, you obeyed yet from heart into which you were delivered a form of teaching.
18 Having been freed and from the sin, you were enslaved to the righteousness.
19 (According to man I speak, on account of the weakness of the flesh of you.) As for you presented the members of you slaves to the uncleanness and to the iniquity for the iniquity; so now present you in members of you slaves to the righteousness for sanctification.
20 When for slaves you were of the sin, free you were to the righteousness.
21 What therefore fruit had you then? in the things now you are ashamed; the for end of those, death.
22 Now but having been freed from the sin, having been enslaved and to the God, you have the fruit of you in sanctification; the and end, life agelasting.
23 The for wages of the sin, death; the but gracious gift of the God, life agelasting in an Anointed Jesus the Lord of us.
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. We died to sin! How could we any longer live in it?
3 Or are you ignorant to the fact that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death. Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, that we might walk in the newness of life.
5 If we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we shall be in the likeness of his resurrection.
6 We know this that our old self was impaled with him that the body of sin might be destroyed, that we should no longer be in bondage to sin.
7 He who has died is freed from sin.
8 If we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.
9 We know that Christ being raised from the dead died no more; death no longer has dominion over him.
10 For the death that he died, he died with reference to sin once. But the life that he lives, he lives to God.
11 Consider yourselves to be dead with reference to sin, but alive with reference to God through Christ Jesus.
12 Let no sin rule in your mortal body, that you should obey the lustful desires.
13 Also do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness. Present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness for God.
14 Sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace.
15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid!
16 Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient servants you are his voluntary servants because you obey him? This could be obedience to sin with death in view or obedience to righteousness with holiness in view?
17 But thanks to God, that you were the servants of sin yet you became obedient from the heart to the teachings delivered to you.
18 After being made free from sin, you became servants of righteousness.
19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. You once presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to sin. Now you present your members as servants to righteousness and sanctification purificationholiness.
20 When you were servants of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.
21 You are now ashamed of the fruit you had at that time. For the results of these things is death.
22 Now you are free from sin and are servants to God. You have your fruit in holiness, and the end everlasting eternal life.
23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift from God is everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
