11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

11 So, you too consider yourselves dead to sin(A) and alive to God in Christ Jesus.[a]

12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey[b] its desires. 13 And do not offer any parts[c] of it to sin(B) as weapons for unrighteousness. But as those who are alive from the dead, offer yourselves to God,(C) and all the parts of yourselves to God as weapons for righteousness. 14 For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law(D) but under grace.(E)
