Romans 6
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue still in sinne, that grace may abounde? God forbid.
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 Howe shall we, that are dead to sinne, liue yet therein?
God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein?
3 Knowe ye not, that all we which haue bene baptized into Iesus Christ, haue bene baptized into his death?
Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
4 We are buried then with him by baptisme into his death, that like as Christ was raysed vp from the dead to the glorie of the Father, so we also should walke in newnesse of life.
We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
5 For if we be planted with him to the similitude of his death, euen so shall we be to the similitude of his resurrection,
For if we have become united with [him] in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of his resurrection;
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sinne might be destroied, that henceforth we should not serue sinne.
knowing this, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be done away, that so we should no longer be in bondage to sin;
7 For he that is dead, is freed from sinne.
for he that hath died is justified from sin.
8 Wherefore, if we bee dead with Christ, we beleeue that we shall liue also with him,
But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him;
9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead, dieth no more: death hath no more dominion ouer him.
knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him.
10 For in that hee died, hee died once to sinne but in that he liueth, he liueth to God.
For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11 Likewise thinke ye also, that ye are dead to sin, but are aliue to God in Iesus Christ our Lord.
Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
12 Let not sinne reigne therefore in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in ye lusts therof:
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof:
13 Neither giue ye your members, as weapons of vnrighteousnes vnto sinne: but giue your selues vnto God, as they that are aliue from the dead, and giue your members as weapons of righteousnesse vnto God.
neither present your members unto sin [as] instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves unto God, as alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God.
14 For sinne shall not haue dominion ouer you: for ye are not vnder ye Lawe, but vnder grace.
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sinne, because we are not vnder the Law, but vnder grace? God forbid.
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Knowe ye not, that to whomsoeuer yee giue your selues as seruats to obey, his seruants ye are to whom ye obey, whether it be of sinne vnto death, or of obedience vnto righteousnesse?
Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves [as] servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 But God be thanked, that ye haue beene the seruants of sinne, but yee haue obeyed from the heart vnto the forme of the doctrine, wherunto ye were deliuered.
But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye were servants of sin, ye became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto ye were delivered;
18 Being then made free from sinne, yee are made the seruants of righteousnesse.
and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.
19 I speake after the maner of man, because of the infirmitie of your flesh: for as yee haue giuen your members seruants to vncleannes and to iniquitie, to commit iniquitie, so now giue your mebers seruants vnto righteousnesse in holinesse.
I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye presented your members [as] servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity, even so now present your members [as] servants to righteousness unto sanctification.
20 For when ye were the seruants of sinne, ye were freed from righteousnesse.
For when ye were servants of sin, ye were free in regard of righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are nowe ashamed? For the ende of those things is death.
What fruit then had ye at that time in the things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
