Romans 6

What shall we say then? ^aShall we continue in sin, that ^bgrace may abound? ^2cGod forbid. How shall we, that ^dare dead to sin, live any longer therein? ³Know ye not, that ^eso many of us as were baptized ^finto Jesus Christ were ^gbaptized into his death? ⁴Therefore we are ^hburied with him by baptism into death: that like as ⁱChrist was raised up from the dead by ^kthe glory of the Father, even so ^lwe also should walk in newness of life. ⁵For ^mif we have been ⁿplanted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: ⁶knowing this, that ^oour old man ^pis crucified with him, that ^qthe body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. ⁷For ^rhe that is dead is ^sfreed from sin. ⁸Now ^tif we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: ⁹knowing that ^uChrist being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. ¹⁰For in that he died, ^whe died unto sin ^xonce: but in that he liveth, he ^yliveth unto God. ¹¹Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be ^zdead indeed unto sin, but alive ^aunto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. ¹²Let not ^bsin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. ¹³Neither ^cyield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but ^dyield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. ¹⁴For ^bsin shall not have dominion over you: for ^eye are not under the law, but under grace.

¹⁵What then? ^fshall we sin, ^zbecause we are not under the law, but under grace? ^gGod forbid. ¹⁶Know ye not, that ^hto whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? ¹⁷But God be thanked, ⁱthat ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart ^kthat form of doctrine which was delivered you. ¹⁸Being then ^lmade free from sin, ^mye became the servants of righteousness. ¹⁹ⁿI speak after the manner of men ^obecause of ^othe infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have ^cyielded your members servants to uncleanness and to ^piniquity unto iniquity; even so now ^dyield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. ²⁰For when ye were ^hthe servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. ^21qWhat fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for ^rthe end of those things is death. ²²But now being ^lmade free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. ²³For the ^swages of sin is ^tdeath; but the gift of God is ^ueternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
