1What <5101> shall we say <2046> (5692) then <3767>_? Shall we continue <1961> (5692) in sin <266>_, that <2443> grace <5485> may abound <4121> (5661)_?
2God forbid <3361> <1096> (5636)_. How <4459> shall we, that <3748> are dead <599> (5627) to sin <266>_, live <2198> (5692) any longer <2089> therein <1722> <846>_?
3<2228> Know ye not <50> (5719)_, that so <3754> many of us <3745> as were baptized <907> (5681) into <1519> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> were baptized <907> (5681) into <1519> his <846> death <2288>_? {were: or, are}
4Therefore <3767> we are buried with <4916> (5648) him <846> by <1223> baptism <908> into <1519> death <2288>_: that <2443> like as <5618> Christ <5547> was raised up <1453> (5681) from <1537> the dead <3498> by <1223> the glory <1391> of the Father <3962>_, even so <3779> we <2249> also <2532> should walk <4043> (5661) in <1722> newness <2538> of life <2222>_.
5For <1063> if <1487> we have been <1096> (5754) planted together <4854> in the likeness <3667> of his <846> death <2288>_, we shall be <2071> (5704) also <235> <2532> [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection <386>_:
6Knowing <1097> (5723) this <5124>_, that <3754> our <2257> old <3820> man <444> is crucified with <4957> (5681) [him], that <2443> the body <4983> of sin <266> might be destroyed <2673> (5686)_, that henceforth <3371> (0) we <2248> should <1398> (0) not <3371> serve <1398> (5721) sin <266>_.
7For <1063> he that is dead <599> (5631) is freed <1344> (5769) from <575> sin <266>_. {freed: Gr. justified}
8Now <1161> if <1487> we be dead <599> (5627) with <4862> Christ <5547>_, we believe <4100> (5719) that <3754> we shall <4800> (0) also <2532> live <4800> (5692) with him <846>_:
9Knowing <1492> (5761) that <3754> Christ <5547> being raised <1453> (5685) from <1537> the dead <3498> dieth <599> (5719) no more <3765>_; death <2288> hath <2961> (0) no more <3765> dominion over <2961> (5719) him <846>_.
10For <3739> <1063> in that he died <599> (5627)_, he died <599> (5627) unto sin <266> once <2178>_: but <1161> in that <3739> he liveth <2198> (5719)_, he liveth <2198> (5719) unto God <2316>_.
11Likewise <3779> reckon <3049> (5737) ye <5210> also <2532> yourselves <1438> to be <1511> (5750) dead <3498> indeed <3303> unto sin <266>_, but <1161> alive <2198> (5723) unto God <2316> through <1722> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our <2257> Lord <2962>_.
12Let <936> (0) not <3361> sin <266> therefore <3767> reign <936> (5720) in <1722> your <5216> mortal <2349> body <4983>_, that <1519> ye should obey <5219> (5721) it <846> in <1722> the lusts <1939> thereof <846>_.
13Neither <3366> yield ye <3936> (5720) your <5216> members <3196> [as] instruments <3696> of unrighteousness <93> unto sin <266>_: but <235> yield <3936> (5657) yourselves <1438> unto God <2316>_, as <5613> those that are alive <2198> (5723) from <1537> the dead <3498>_, and <2532> your <5216> members <3196> [as] instruments <3696> of righteousness <1343> unto God <2316>_. {instruments: Gr. arms, or, weapons}
14For <1063> sin <266> shall <2961> (0) not <3756> have dominion over <2961> (5692) you <5216>_: for <1063> ye are <2075> (5748) not <3756> under <5259> the law <3551>_, but <235> under <5259> grace <5485>_.
15What <5101> then <3767>_? shall we sin <264> (5692)_, because <3754> we are <2070> (5748) not <3756> under <5259> the law <3551>_, but <235> under <5259> grace <5485>_? God forbid <3361> <1096> (5636)_.
16Know ye <1492> (5758) not <3756>_, that <3754> to whom <3739> ye yield <3936> (5719) yourselves <1438> servants <1401> to <1519> obey <5218>_, his servants <1401> ye are <2075> (5748) to whom <3739> ye obey <5219> (5719)_; whether <2273> of sin <266> unto <1519> death <2288>_, or <2228> of obedience <5218> unto <1519> righteousness <1343>_?
17But <1161> God <2316> be thanked <5485>_, that <3754> ye were <2258> (5713) the servants <1401> of sin <266>_, but <1161> ye have obeyed <5219> (5656) from <1537> the heart <2588> that form <5179> of doctrine <1322> which <1519> <3739> was delivered you <3860> (5681)_. {which...: Gr. whereto ye were delivered}
18Being <1659> (0) then <1161> made free <1659> (5685) from <575> sin <266>_, ye became the servants <1402> (5681) of righteousness <1343>_.
19I speak <3004> (5719) after the manner of men <442> because <1223> of the infirmity <769> of your <5216> flesh <4561>_: for <1063> as <5618> ye have yielded <3936> (5656) your <5216> members <3196> servants <1401> to uncleanness <167> and <2532> to iniquity <458> unto <1519> iniquity <458>_; even so <3779> now <3568> yield <3936> (5657) your <5216> members <3196> servants <1401> to righteousness <1343> unto <1519> holiness <38>_.
20For <1063> when <3753> ye were <2258> (5713) the servants <1401> of sin <266>_, ye were <2258> (5713) free <1658> from righteousness <1343>_. {from...: Gr. to righteousness}
21What <5101> <3767> fruit <2590> had ye <2192> (5707) then <5119> in <1909> those things whereof <3739> ye are <1870> (0) now <3568> ashamed <1870> (5736)_? for <1063> the end <5056> of those things <1565> [is] death <2288>_.
22But <1161> now <3570> being made free <1659> (5685) from <575> sin <266>_, and <1161> become servants <1402> (5685) to God <2316>_, ye have <2192> (5719) your <5216> fruit <2590> unto <1519> holiness <38>_, and <1161> the end <5056> everlasting <166> life <2222>_.
23For <1063> the wages <3800> of sin <266> [is] death <2288>_; but <1161> the gift <5486> of God <2316> [is] eternal <166> life <2222> through <1722> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our <2257> Lord <2962>_.
