Romans 6:18-23

18and having been 1freedG1659 from sinG266, you becameG1402 slavesG1402 of righteousnessG1343. 192I am speakingG3004 in humanG442 termsG442 becauseG1223 of the weaknessG769 of your fleshG4561. For justG5618 3as you presentedG3936 your membersG3196 as slavesG1401 to impurityG167 and to lawlessnessG458, 4resultingG1519 in further lawlessnessG458, soG3779 nowG3568 presentG3936 your membersG3196 as slavesG1401 to righteousnessG1343, 5resultingG1519 in sanctificationG38.

20For 6whenG3753 you were slavesG1401 of sinG266, you were freeG1658 in regard to righteousnessG1343. 21ThereforeG3767 whatG5101 78benefitG2590 were you thenG5119 9derivingG2192 10from the things of whichG3739 you are nowG3568 ashamedG1870? For the outcomeG5056 of thoseG1565 thingsG1565 is 11deathG2288. 22But nowG3570 having been 12freedG1659 from sinG266 and 13enslavedG1402 to GodG2316, you 14deriveG2192 your 1516benefitG2590, 17resultingG1519 in sanctificationG38, and 18the outcomeG5056, eternalG166 lifeG2222. 23For the wagesG3800 of 19sinG266 is deathG2288, but the freeG5486 giftG5486 of GodG2316 is 20eternalG166 lifeG2222 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962.
