5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.

6 We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the sinful body might be destroyed, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin.

7 For he who has died is freed from sin.

8 But if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.

9 For we know that Christ being raised from the dead will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.

10 The death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God.
