Romans 6:17-19

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁷ But thank God that, although you used to be slaves of sin,^(A) you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching you were transferred^[a] to,^{(B) 18} and having been liberated from sin,^(C) you became enslaved to righteousness. ¹⁹ I am using a human analogy^[b](D) because of the weakness of your flesh.^[c] For just as you offered the parts^[d] of yourselves as slaves to moral impurity, and to greater and greater lawlessness, so now offer them as slaves to righteousness, which results in sanctification.
