Romans 6:19-22

191I am speakingG3004 2inG442 humanG442 termsG442 becauseG1223 of the weaknessG769 of your fleshG4561. For justG5618 3as you presentedG3936 4the partsG3196 of your body as slavesG1400 to impurityG167 and to lawlessnessG458, 5resultingG1519 inG1519 further lawlessnessG458, soG3779 nowG3568 presentG3936 6your body’s partsG3196 as slavesG1400 to righteousnessG1343, 7resultingG1519 inG1519 sanctificationG38.

20For 8whenG3753 you were slavesG1401 of sinG266, you were freeG1658 in relation to righteousnessG1343. 21ThereforeG3767 whatG5101 910benefitG2590 were you thenG5119 11derivingG2192 from the things of whichG3739 you areG1870 nowG3568 ashamedG1870? For the outcomeG5056 of thoseG1565 thingsG1565 is 12deathG2288. 22But nowG3570 having been 13freedG1659 from sinG266 and 14enslavedG1402 to GodG2316, you 15deriveG2192 your 1617benefitG2590, 18resultingG1519 inG1519 sanctificationG38, and 19the outcomeG5056, eternalG166 lifeG2222.
