Romans 6:2-16

2Certainly notG3361G1096! How can weG4459 whoG3748 diedG599 to sinG266 liveG2198 inG1722 itG846 any longerG2089? 3OrG2228 aren’t you awareG50 thatG3754 all ofG3745 us who were baptizedG907 intoG1519 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 were baptizedG907 intoG1519 HisG846 deathG2288? 4We were therefore buriedG3767G4916 with HimG846 throughG1223 baptismG908 intoG1519 deathG2288, in order thatG2443, just asG5618 ChristG5547 was raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 throughG1223 theG3588 gloryG1391 of theG3588 FatherG3962, weG1473 tooG2532 may walkG4043 inG1722 newnessG2538 of lifeG2222.

5ForG1063 ifG1487 we have beenG1096 united with HimG4854 like thisG3667G3588 inG3588 HisG846 deathG2288, we will certainly also beG235G2532G1510 united with Him in His resurrectionG3588G386. 6We knowG1097 thatG3754 ourG1473 oldG3820 selfG444 was crucified withG4957 Him so thatG2443 theG3588 bodyG4983 of sinG266 might be rendered powerlessG2673, that weG1473 should no longerG3371 be slavesG1398 to sinG266. 7ForG1063 anyone who has diedG599 has been freedG1344 fromG575 sinG266.

8NowG1161 ifG1487 we diedG599 withG4862 ChristG5547, we believeG4100 thatG3754 we will also live withG2532G4800 HimG846. 9For we knowG1492 thatG3754 since ChristG5547 was raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, He cannot die againG599G3765; deathG2288 no longerG3765 has dominion overG2961 HimG846. 10The death He diedG599, He diedG599 to sinG266 once for allG2178; butG1161 the life He livesG2198, He livesG2198 to GodG2316. 11SoG3779 youG4771 tooG2532 must countG3049 yourselvesG1438 deadG3498 to sinG266, butG1161 aliveG2198 to GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.

12ThereforeG3767 do not let sin reignG3361G936G3588G266 inG1722 yourG4771 mortalG2349 bodyG4983 so thatG1519 you obeyG5219 itsG846 desiresG1939. 13Do notG3366 presentG3936 theG3588 partsG3196 of yourG4771 body to sinG266 as instrumentsG3696 of wickednessG93, butG235 presentG3936 yourselvesG1438 to GodG2316 asG5616 those who have been brought fromG1537 deathG3498 to lifeG2198; andG2532 present theG3588 partsG3196 of yourG4771 body toG2316 Him as instrumentsG3696 of righteousnessG1343. 14ForG1063 sinG266 shall not be your masterG3756G2961G4771, becauseG1063 you areG1510 notG3756 underG5259 lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485.

15WhatG5101 thenG3767? Shall we sinG264 becauseG3754 we areG1510 notG3756 underG5259 lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485? Certainly notG3361G1096! 16Do you not knowG3756G1492 thatG3754 when you offerG3936 yourselvesG1438 as obedientG5218 slavesG1401, you areG1510 slavesG1401 toG3739 the one you obeyG5219, whetherG2273 you are slaves to sinG266 leading toG1519 deathG2288, orG2228 to obedienceG5218 leading toG1519 righteousnessG1343?
