1What shall we say then? Are we to remain in sin so that grace may increase?1What then shall we say? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may increase?
2Absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it?2Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer?
3Or do you not know that as many as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?3Or aren’t you aware that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
4Therefore we have been buried with him through baptism into death, in order that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too may live a new life. 4We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life.
5For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will certainly also be united in the likeness of his resurrection.5For if we have been united with Him like this in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection.
6We know that our old man was crucified with him so that the body of sin would no longer dominate us, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.6We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.
7(For someone who has died has been freed from sin.) 7For anyone who has died has been freed from sin.
8Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.8Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.
9We know that since Christ has been raised from the dead, he is never going to die again; death no longer has mastery over him.9For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, He cannot die again; death no longer has dominion over Him.
10For the death he died, he died to sin once for all, but the life he lives, he lives to God.10The death He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life He lives, He lives to God.
11So you too consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 11So you too must count yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
12Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires,12Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires.
13and do not present your members to sin as instruments to be used for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments to be used for righteousness.13Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness.
14For sin will have no mastery over you, because you are not under law but under grace. 14For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.
15What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Absolutely not!15What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly not!
16Do you not know that if you present yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or obedience resulting in righteousness?16Do you not know that when you offer yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves to the one you obey, whether you are slaves to sin leading to death, or to obedience leading to righteousness?
17But thanks be to God that though you were slaves to sin, you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching you were entrusted to,17But thanks be to God that, though you once were slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were committed.
18and having been freed from sin, you became enslaved to righteousness.18You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
19(I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh.) For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification.19I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to escalating wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to holiness.
20For when you were slaves of sin, you were free with regard to righteousness. 20For when you were slaves to sin, you were free of obligation to righteousness.
21So what benefit did you then reap from those things that you are now ashamed of? For the end of those things is death.21What fruit did you reap at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? The outcome of those things is death.
22But now, freed from sin and enslaved to God, you have your benefit leading to sanctification, and the end is eternal life.22But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the fruit you reap leads to holiness, and the outcome is eternal life.
23For the payoff of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. 23For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
