What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
By no means: how shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his death?
4 ⲇ̅ ⲁⲩⲕⲟⲥⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲱⲙⲥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϩⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛⲙⲟϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ.
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection:
6 ⲋ̅ ⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲡⲁⲥ ⲁⲩⲁϣϥ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲕⲱⲣϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲉⲣⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲃⲓ ϫⲉ.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin may be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Now if we are dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
Knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
For in that he died, he died to sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth to God.
Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts of it.
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲧⲁϩⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯ⳿ⲁⲇⲓⲕⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲁⲧⲁϩⲉ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲟⲛϧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness to sin: but yield yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness to God:
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? By no means.
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ϣⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁϩⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲕ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ.
Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants in obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ⳿ⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ϣⲏⲡ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩϯ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin; but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲡⲉϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁϩⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϭⲱϧⲉⲙ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲛ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲙⲁⲧⲁϩⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲛ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡⲧⲟⲩⲃⲟ.
I speak after the manner of men, because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity, to ([work] ) iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness, to ([work] ) holiness.
For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ ⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲁϩ ⲉⲛⲁϥϣⲟⲡ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲏⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓϣⲓⲡⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲧϧⲁ⳿ⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏ ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ.
What fruit had ye then in those things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things [is] death.
