20 When you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.(A) 21 So what fruit did you then gain from the things of which you now are ashamed? The end of those things is death.(B) 22 But now that you have been freed from sin and enslaved to God, the fruit you have leads to sanctification, and the end is eternal life.(C) 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.(D)

New Living Translation
20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the obligation to do right. 21 And what was the result? You are now ashamed of the things you used to do, things that end in eternal doom. 22 But now you are free from the power of sin and have become slaves of God. Now you do those things that lead to holiness and result in eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
