Romans 6:9-23

9knowingG3609 that ChristG5547, having been 1raisedG1453 from the deadG3498, 2is neverG3765 to dieG599 againG3765; 3deathG2288 noG3765 longerG3765 is masterG2961 overG2961 Him. 10For the death that He diedG599, He diedG599 to sinG266 onceG2178 for allG2178; but the lifeG2198 that He livesG2198, He livesG2198 to GodG2316. 11EvenG2532 soG3779 considerG3049 yourselvesG1438 to be 4deadG3498 to sinG266, but aliveG2198 to GodG2316 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424.

12ThereforeG3767 do not let sinG266 5reignG936 in your mortalG2349 bodyG4983 soG1519 that you obeyG5219 its lustsG1939, 13and do not go on 6presentingG3936 7the membersG3196 of your body to sinG266 as 8instrumentsG3696 of unrighteousnessG93; but 9presentG3936 yourselvesG1438 to GodG2316 as those aliveG2198 from the deadG3498, and your membersG3196 as 10instrumentsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 to GodG2316. 14For 11sinG266 shall not 12be masterG2961 overG2961 you, for 13you are not underG5259 lawG3551 but 14underG5259 graceG5485.

15WhatG5101 thenG3767? 15Shall we sinG264 becauseG3754 we are not underG5259 lawG3551 but underG5259 graceG5485? 16May it neverG3361 be! 16Do you not 17knowG3609 that whenG3739 you presentG3936 yourselvesG1438 to someoneG3739 as 18slavesG1401 for obedienceG5218, you are slavesG1401 of the one whomG3739 you obeyG5219, eitherG2273 of 19sinG266 20resultingG1519 in deathG2288, orG2228 of obedienceG5218 21resultingG1519 in righteousnessG1343? 17But 22thanksG5485 be to GodG2316 that 23though you were slavesG1401 of sinG266, you becameG5219 obedientG5219 from the heartG2588 to that 24formG5179 of teachingG1322 to whichG3739 you were committedG3860, 18and having been 25freedG1659 from sinG266, you becameG1402 slavesG1402 of righteousnessG1343. 1926I am speakingG3004 in humanG442 termsG442 becauseG1223 of the weaknessG769 of your fleshG4561. For justG5618 27as you presentedG3936 your membersG3196 as slavesG1401 to impurityG167 and to lawlessnessG458, 28resultingG1519 in further lawlessnessG458, soG3779 nowG3568 presentG3936 your membersG3196 as slavesG1401 to righteousnessG1343, 29resultingG1519 in sanctificationG38.

20For 30whenG3753 you were slavesG1401 of sinG266, you were freeG1658 in regard to righteousnessG1343. 21ThereforeG3767 whatG5101 3132benefitG2590 were you thenG5119 33derivingG2192 34from the things of whichG3739 you are nowG3568 ashamedG1870? For the outcomeG5056 of thoseG1565 thingsG1565 is 35deathG2288. 22But nowG3570 having been 36freedG1659 from sinG266 and 37enslavedG1402 to GodG2316, you 38deriveG2192 your 3940benefitG2590, 41resultingG1519 in sanctificationG38, and 42the outcomeG5056, eternalG166 lifeG2222. 23For the wagesG3800 of 43sinG266 is deathG2288, but the freeG5486 giftG5486 of GodG2316 is 44eternalG166 lifeG2222 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962.
