Romans 6

6
CHAPTER 6
1Therefore what shall we say? Shall we dwell in sin, that grace be plenteous?
2God forbid. For how shall we that be dead to sin, live yet therein?
3Whether, brethren, ye know not, that whichever we be baptized in Christ Jesus, we be baptized in his death?
4For we be together buried with him by baptism into death; that as Christ arose from death by the glory of the Father, so walk we in a newness of life.
5For if we planted together be made to the likeness of his death, also we shall be of the likeness of his rising again;
6witting this thing, that our old man is crucified together, that the body of sin be destroyed, that we serve no more to sin.
7For he that is dead [to sin], is justified from sin.
8And if we be dead with Christ, we believe that also we shall live together with him;
9witting that Christ, rising again from death, now dieth not, death shall no more have lordship on him.
10For that he was dead to sin, he was dead once; but that he liveth, he liveth to God.
11So ye deem yourselves to be dead to sin, but living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
12Therefore reign not sin in your deadly body, that ye obey to his covetings.
13Neither give ye your members arms of wickedness to sin, but give ye yourselves to God, as they that live of dead men, and your members arms of rightwiseness to God.
14For sin shall not have lordship over you; for ye be not under the law, but under grace.
15What therefore? Shall we do sin, for we be not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16Know ye not, that to whom ye give you servants to obey to, ye be servants of that thing, to which ye have obeyed, either of sin to death, either of obedience to rightwiseness?
17But I thank God, that ye were servants of sin; but ye have obeyed of heart into that form of teaching, in which ye be betaken.
18And ye delivered from sin, be made servants of rightwiseness.
19I say that thing that is of man, for the unsteadfastness, [or the infirmity, or unstableness], of your flesh. But as ye have given your members to serve to uncleanness, and to wickedness into wickedness, so now give ye your members to serve to rightwiseness into holiness.
20For when ye were servants of sin, ye were free of rightwiseness.
21Therefore what fruit had ye then in those things, in which ye shame now? For the end of them is death.
22But now ye delivered from sin, and made servants to God, have your fruit into holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23For the wages of sin is death; the grace of God is everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
