Προς Ρωμαιους 6
1 τι ουν ερουμεν επιμενουμεν τη αμαρτια ινα η χαρις πλεοναση
Then what shall we say? must we abide in sin, in order that grace may abound?
2 μη γενοιτο οιτινες απεθανομεν τη αμαρτια πως ετι ζησομεν εν αυτη
It could not be so. How shall we, who are dead unto sin, live any longer in it?
3 η αγνοειτε οτι οσοι εβαπτισθημεν εις χριστον ιησουν εις τον θανατον αυτου εβαπτισθημεν
Whether do you not know, that so many of us as were baptized unto Jesus Christ were baptized into His death?
4 συνεταφημεν ουν αυτω δια του βαπτισματος εις τον θανατον ινα ωσπερ ηγερθη χριστος εκ νεκρων δια της δοξης του πατρος ουτως και ημεις εν καινοτητι ζωης περιπατησωμεν
Therefore we were buried with him by baptism into death: in order that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so must we also walk in newness of life.
5 ει γαρ συμφυτοι γεγοναμεν τω ομοιωματι του θανατου αυτου αλλα και της αναστασεως εσομεθα
For if we have grown together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 τουτο γινωσκοντες οτι ο παλαιος ημων ανθρωπος συνεσταυρωθη ινα καταργηθη το σωμα της αμαρτιας του μηκετι δουλευειν ημας τη αμαρτια
knowing this, that our old man is crucified along with him, in order that the body of sin may be destroyed, that we may no longer serve sin;
7 ο γαρ αποθανων δεδικαιωται απο της αμαρτιας
for the one having died has been made free from sin.
8 ει δε απεθανομεν συν χριστω πιστευομεν οτι και συζησομεν αυτω
But if we died along with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him:
9 ειδοτες οτι χριστος εγερθεις εκ νεκρων ουκετι αποθνησκει θανατος αυτου ουκετι κυριευει
knowing that Christ having risen from the dead dies no more; death no longer has dominion over him.
10 ο γαρ απεθανεν τη αμαρτια απεθανεν εφαπαξ ο δε ζη ζη τω θεω
For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he lives, he lives unto God.
11 ουτως και υμεις λογιζεσθε εαυτους νεκρους μεν ειναι τη αμαρτια ζωντας δε τω θεω εν χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων
So you also thus reckon yourselves dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ.
12 μη ουν βασιλευετω η αμαρτια εν τω θνητω υμων σωματι εις το υπακουειν αυτη εν ταις επιθυμιαις αυτου
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body that you should obey the lusts of it:
13 μηδε παριστανετε τα μελη υμων οπλα αδικιας τη αμαρτια αλλα παραστησατε εαυτους τω θεω ως εκ νεκρων ζωντας και τα μελη υμων οπλα δικαιοσυνης τω θεω
neither present your members arms of iniquity unto sin; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members arms of righteousness unto God.
14 αμαρτια γαρ υμων ου κυριευσει ου γαρ εστε υπο νομον αλλ υπο χαριν
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under the law, but under grace.
15 τι ουν αμαρτησομεν οτι ουκ εσμεν υπο νομον αλλ υπο χαριν μη γενοιτο
What then? can we commit sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? it could not be so.
16 ουκ οιδατε οτι ω παριστανετε εαυτους δουλους εις υπακοην δουλοι εστε ω υπακουετε ητοι αμαρτιας εις θανατον η υπακοης εις δικαιοσυνην
Do you not know, that to whom you present yourselves servants unto obedience, ye are servants to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or obedience unto righteousness?
17 χαρις δε τω θεω οτι ητε δουλοι της αμαρτιας υπηκουσατε δε εκ καρδιας εις ον παρεδοθητε τυπον διδαχης
But thanks be unto God, that whereas ye were servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart the type of teaching into which ye were delivered:
18 ελευθερωθεντες δε απο της αμαρτιας εδουλωθητε τη δικαιοσυνη
but having been made free from sin, ye became servants unto righteousness.
19 ανθρωπινον λεγω δια την ασθενειαν της σαρκος υμων ωσπερ γαρ παρεστησατε τα μελη υμων δουλα τη ακαθαρσια και τη ανομια εις την ανομιαν ουτως νυν παραστησατε τα μελη υμων δουλα τη δικαιοσυνη εις αγιασμον
I speak after the manner of a man on account of the weakness of your carnality. For as ye presented your members as servants unto impurity and lawlessness pursuant to lawlessness, so now present your members servants unto righteousness pursuant to sanctification.
20 οτε γαρ δουλοι ητε της αμαρτιας ελευθεροι ητε τη δικαιοσυνη
For when you were the servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
21 τινα ουν καρπον ειχετε τοτε εφ οις νυν επαισχυνεσθε το γαρ τελος εκεινων θανατος
What fruit then had you at that time in those things in which you are now ashamed? for the end of these things is death.
