Romans 6
1 What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?
What shall we say then? Shall we continue still in sinne, that grace may abounde? God forbid.
2 let it not be! we who died to the sin — how shall we still live in it?
Howe shall we, that are dead to sinne, liue yet therein?
3 are ye ignorant that we, as many as were baptized to Christ Jesus, to his death were baptized?
Knowe ye not, that all we which haue bene baptized into Iesus Christ, haue bene baptized into his death?
4 we were buried together, then, with him through the baptism to the death, that even as Christ was raised up out of the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we in newness of life might walk.
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.
5 For, if we have become planted together to the likeness of his death, [so] also we shall be of the rising again;
For if we be planted with him to the similitude of his death, euen so shall we be to the similitude of his resurrection,
6 this knowing, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;
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.
7 for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.
For he that is dead, is freed from sinne.
8 And if we died with Christ, we believe that we also shall live with him,
Wherefore, if we bee dead with Christ, we beleeue that we shall liue also with him,
9 knowing that Christ, having been raised up out of the dead, doth no more die, death over him hath no more lordship;
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead, dieth no more: death hath no more dominion ouer him.
10 for in that he died, to the sin he died once, and in that he liveth, he liveth to God;
For in that hee died, hee died once to sinne but in that he liueth, he liueth to God.
11 so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
Likewise thinke ye also, that ye are dead to sin, but are aliue to God in Iesus Christ our Lord.
12 Let not then the sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires;
Let not sinne reigne therefore in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in ye lusts therof:
13 neither present ye your members instruments of unrighteousness to the sin, but present yourselves to God as living out of the dead, and your members instruments of righteousness to God;
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.
14 for sin over you shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under grace.
For sinne shall not haue dominion ouer you: for ye are not vnder ye Lawe, but vnder grace.
15 What then? shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? let it not be!
What then? shall we sinne, because we are not vnder the Law, but vnder grace? God forbid.
16 have ye not known that to whom ye present yourselves servants for obedience, servants ye are to him to whom ye obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
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?
17 and thanks to God, that ye were servants of the sin, and — were obedient from the heart to the form of teaching to which ye were delivered up;
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.
18 and having been freed from the sin, ye became servants to the righteousness.
Being then made free from sinne, yee are made the seruants of righteousnesse.
19 In the manner of men I speak, because of the weakness of your flesh, for even as ye did present your members servants to the uncleanness and to the lawlessness — to the lawlessness, so now present your members servants to the righteousness — to sanctification,
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.
20 for when ye were servants of the sin, ye were free from the righteousness,
For when ye were the seruants of sinne, ye were freed from righteousnesse.
21 what fruit, therefore, were ye having then, in the things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those [is] death.
What fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are nowe ashamed? For the ende of those things is death.
