Romans 6:3-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 Do you not know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?(A) 4 Therefore we were buried with him by baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.(B)
5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be destroyed, so we might no longer be enslaved to sin.(C) 7 For whoever has died is freed[a] from sin. 8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. 9 We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.(D) 10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all, but the life he lives, he lives to God.(E) 11 So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.(F)

‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,(D)
35 until I make your enemies your footstool.” ’
36 “Therefore let the entire house of Israel know with certainty that God has made him both Lord and Messiah,[d] this Jesus whom you crucified.”
