What should we say then? Should we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
Absolutely not. We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
Or do you not know that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
4 ⲇ̅ ⲁⲩⲧⲟⲙⲥⲛ ϭⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲧⲛⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲱⲱⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲓϩⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲃⲣⲣⲉ ⲛⲱⲛϩ
We were buried therefore with him through baptism to death, that just like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
6 ⲋ̅ ⲉⲛⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲉϣⲧ ⲡⲉⲛⲣⲙⲛⲁⲥ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉⲕⲁⲧⲁⲣⲅⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲉⲧⲙⲧⲣⲉⲛⲣϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ϭⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϫⲓⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ
knowing this, that our old self was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.
For he who has died has been freed from sin.
But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him;
knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has dominion over him.
For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
In the same way, consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ ⲛϫⲓ ⲛϭⲟⲛⲥ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲟⲡⲗⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
Neither present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace.
What then? Should we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Absolutely not.
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲏ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲏ ⲙⲡⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ
Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲏⲡ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲟ ⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲡⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ ⲛⲧⲉⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϯ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ
But thanks be to God, that, whereas you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were entrusted.
Being made free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⲉⲓϫⲱ ⲙⲡⲁⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲧⲁⲥⲑⲉⲛⲓⲁ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲧⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲥⲓⲁ ⲙⲛ ⲧⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲉⲩⲧⲃⲃⲟ
I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh, for as you presented your members as slaves to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as slaves to righteousness for sanctification.
For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.
21 ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ ⲁϣ ϭⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲧⲏ ⲧⲛⲉϥ ⲙⲡⲓⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲓϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲑⲁⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲙⲟⲩ
What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
