Romans 6:12-18
12ThereforeG3767 do not let sinG266 1reignG936 in your mortalG2349 bodyG4983 soG1519 that you obeyG5219 its lustsG1939, 13and do not go on 2presentingG3936 3the membersG3196 of your body to sinG266 as 4instrumentsG3696 of unrighteousnessG93; but 5presentG3936 yourselvesG1438 to GodG2316 as those aliveG2198 from the deadG3498, and your membersG3196 as 6instrumentsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 to GodG2316. 14For 7sinG266 shall not 8be masterG2961 overG2961 you, for 9you are not underG5259 lawG3551 but 10underG5259 graceG5485.
15WhatG5101 thenG3767? 11Shall we sinG264 becauseG3754 we are not underG5259 lawG3551 but underG5259 graceG5485? 12May it neverG3361 be! 16Do you not 13knowG3609 that whenG3739 you presentG3936 yourselvesG1438 to someoneG3739 as 14slavesG1401 for obedienceG5218, you are slavesG1401 of the one whomG3739 you obeyG5219, eitherG2273 of 15sinG266 16resultingG1519 in deathG2288, orG2228 of obedienceG5218 17resultingG1519 in righteousnessG1343? 17But 18thanksG5485 be to GodG2316 that 19though you were slavesG1401 of sinG266, you becameG5219 obedientG5219 from the heartG2588 to that 20formG5179 of teachingG1322 to whichG3739 you were committedG3860, 18and having been 21freedG1659 from sinG266, you becameG1402 slavesG1402 of righteousnessG1343.
