The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans
Chapter 6
American Standard VersionRo 6:1 | What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? |
Ro 6:2 | God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein? |
Ro 6:3 | Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? |
Ro 6:4 | We were buried therefore with him through baptism unto 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. |
Ro 6:5 | For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection; |
Ro 6:6 | 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; |
Ro 6:7 | for he that hath died is justified from sin. |
Ro 6:8 | But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him; |
Ro 6:9 | knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him. |
Ro 6:10 | For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he liveth, he liveth unto God. |
Ro 6:11 | Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus. |
Ro 6:12 | Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof: |
Ro 6:13 | 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. |
Ro 6:14 | For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace. |
Ro 6:15 | What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid. |
Ro 6:16 | 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? |
Ro 6:17 | 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; |
Ro 6:18 | and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness. |
Ro 6:19 | 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. |
Ro 6:20 | For when ye were servants of sin, ye were free in regard of righteousness. |
Ro 6:21 | What fruit then had ye at that time in the things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. |
Ro 6:22 | But now being made free from sin and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life. |
Ro 6:23 | For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. |
