6 What tis then oun shall we say legō?—“ Let us continue epimenō in ho sin hamartia so hina that · ho grace charis may increase pleonazō”? 2 By no means mē! How pōs can we who hostis died apothnēskō to ho sin hamartia go eti on living zaō in en it autos? 3 Or ē do you not know agnoeō that hoti we who hosos were baptized baptizō into eis Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous were baptized baptizō into eis · ho his autos death thanatos? 4 Therefore oun we were buried synthaptō with him autos by dia · ho baptism baptisma into eis · ho death thanatos, so hina that just hōsper as Christ Christos was raised egeirō from ek the dead nekros by dia the ho glory doxa of the ho Father patēr, so houtōs also kai we hēmeis might walk peripateō in en newness kainotēs of life zōē. 5 For gar if ei we have become ginomai united symphytos with him in the ho likeness homoiōma of ho his autos death thanatos, we will eimi certainly alla also kai be eimi united with him in the likeness of his ho resurrection anastasis. 6 We know ginōskō this houtos, that hoti · ho our hēmeis old palaios self anthrōpos was crucified systauroō with him, so hina that the ho body sōma of ho sin hamartia would be rendered powerless katargeō, so ho that we hēmeis would no mēketi longer be enslaved douleuō by ho sin hamartia; 7 for gar the ho one who has died apothnēskō has been set dikaioō free from apo · ho sin hamartia. 8 Now de if ei we have died apothnēskō with syn Christ Christos, we believe pisteuō that hoti we will also kai live syzaō with him autos. 9 We know oida that hoti Christ Christos, having been raised egeirō from ek the dead nekros, will apothnēskō never die apothnēskō again ouketi; death thanatos no longer ouketi has mastery kyrieuō over him autos. 10 For gar the death hos he died apothnēskō, he died apothnēskō to ho sin hamartia once ephapax for all ; but de the life hos he lives zaō, he lives zaō to ho God theos. 11 So houtōs you hymeis too kai consider logizomai yourselves heautou to be eimi dead nekros to ho sin hamartia but de alive zaō to ho God theos in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. 12 Therefore oun do not mē let sin hamartia reign basileuō · ho in en · ho your hymeis mortal thnētos body sōma so eis that you obey hypakouō · ho its autos desires epithumia. 13 Do not mēde continue to present paristēmi · ho your hymeis members melos to ho sin hamartia as instruments hoplon for unrighteousness adikia, but alla present paristēmi yourselves heautou to ho God theos as hōsei alive zaō from ek the dead nekros, and kai · ho your hymeis members melos to ho God theos as instruments hoplon for righteousness dikaiosynē. 14 For gar sin hamartia will kyrieuō not ou have mastery kyrieuō over you hymeis, since gar you are eimi not ou under hypo law nomos but alla under hypo grace charis.

15 What tis then oun? Should we sin hamartanō because hoti we are eimi not ou under hypo law nomos but alla under hypo grace charis? By no means mē! 16 Do you not ou know oida that hoti if you present paristēmi yourselves heautou to someone hos as eis obedient hypakoē slaves, you are eimi slaves of the one whom hos you obey hypakouō, either ētoi of sin hamartia, which leads eis to death thanatos, or ē of obedience hypakoē, which leads eis to righteousness dikaiosynē? 17 But de thanks charis be to ho God theos that hoti though you were eimi slaves of ho sin hamartia, you became obedient hypakouō · de from ek the heart kardia to eis that pattern typos of teaching didachē to which hos you were committed paradidōmi, 18 and de having been set eleutheroō free from apo · ho sin hamartia, you became slaves douloō of ho righteousness dikaiosynē. 19 ( I am speaking legō in human anthrōpinos terms because dia of · ho your hymeis natural sarx limitations astheneia.) · ho For gar just hōsper as you presented paristēmi · ho your hymeis members melos as slaves to ho impurity akatharsia and kai to ho lawlessness anomia leading eis to · ho more lawlessness anomia, so houtōs now nyn present paristēmi · ho your hymeis members melos as slaves to ho righteousness dikaiosynē, leading eis to sanctification hagiasmos. 20 For gar when hote you were eimi slaves of ho sin hamartia, you were eimi free eleutheros with regard to ho righteousness dikaiosynē. 21 Therefore oun what tis fruit karpos were you getting echō at that time tote from epi the things of which hos you are now nyn ashamed epaischunomai? For gar the ho end telos of those things ekeinos is death thanatos. 22 But de now nyni, freed eleutheroō from apo · ho sin hamartia and de enslaved douloō to ho God theos, the ho fruit karpos you hymeis get echō leads eis to sanctification hagiasmos, and de its ho outcome telos, eternal aiōnios life zōē. 23 For gar the ho wages opsōnion of ho sin hamartia is death thanatos, but de the ho free charisma gift of ho God theos is eternal aiōnios life zōē in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios.

Romans 6
International Standard Version

No Longer Sin’s Slaves, but God’s Slaves

6 What should we say, then? Should we go on sinning so that grace may increase? 2 Of course not! How can we who died as far as sin is concerned go on living in it?

3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into union with the Messiah[a] Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore, through baptism we were buried with him into his death so that, just as the Messiah[b] was raised from the dead by the Father’s glory, we too may live an entirely new life. 5 For if we have become united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 We know that our old natures were crucified with him so that our sin-laden bodies might be rendered powerless and we might no longer be slaves to sin. 7 For the person who has died has been freed from sin.

8 Now if we have died with the Messiah,[c] we believe that we will also live with him, 9 for we know that the Messiah,[d] who was raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has mastery over him. 10 For when he died, he died once and for all as far as sin is concerned. But now that he is alive, he lives for God. 11 In the same way, you too must continuously consider yourselves dead as far as sin is concerned, but living for God through the Messiah[e] Jesus.[f]

12 Therefore, do not let sin rule your mortal bodies so that you obey their desires. 13 Stop offering[g] the parts of your body[h] to sin as instruments of unrighteousness. Instead, offer yourselves to God as people who have been brought from death to life and the parts of your body[i] as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin will not have mastery over you, because you are not under Law but under grace.

15 What, then, does this mean?[j] Should we go on sinning because we are not under Law but under grace? Of course not! 16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness? 17 But thank God that, though you were once slaves of sin, you became obedient from your hearts to that form of teaching with which you were entrusted! 18 And since you have been freed from sin, you have become slaves of righteousness.

19 I am speaking in simple[k] terms because of the frailty of your human nature.[l] Just as you once offered the parts of your body[m] as slaves to impurity and to greater and greater disobedience, so now, in the same way, you must offer the parts of your body[n] as slaves to righteousness that leads to sanctification. 20 For when you were slaves of sin, you were “free” as far as righteousness was concerned. 21 What benefit did you get from doing those things you are now ashamed of? For those things resulted in death. 22 But now that you have been freed from sin and have become God’s slaves, the benefit you reap is sanctification, and the result is eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in union with the Messiah[o] Jesus our Lord.

Romans 6
New International Version

Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ

6 What shall we say, then?(A) Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?(B) 2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin;(C) how can we live in it any longer? 3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized(D) into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death(E) in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead(F) through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.(G)

5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.(H) 6 For we know that our old self(I) was crucified with him(J) so that the body ruled by sin(K) might be done away with,[a] that we should no longer be slaves to sin(L)— 7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.(M)

8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.(N) 9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead,(O) he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.(P) 10 The death he died, he died to sin(Q) once for all;(R) but the life he lives, he lives to God.

11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin(S) but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign(T) in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. 13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness,(U) but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness.(V) 14 For sin shall no longer be your master,(W) because you are not under the law,(X) but under grace.(Y)

Slaves to Righteousness

15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace?(Z) By no means! 16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey(AA)—whether you are slaves to sin,(AB) which leads to death,(AC) or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? 17 But thanks be to God(AD) that, though you used to be slaves to sin,(AE) you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching(AF) that has now claimed your allegiance. 18 You have been set free from sin(AG) and have become slaves to righteousness.(AH)

19 I am using an example from everyday life(AI) because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness(AJ) leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin,(AK) you were free from the control of righteousness.(AL) 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death!(AM) 22 But now that you have been set free from sin(AN) and have become slaves of God,(AO) the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.(AP) 23 For the wages of sin is death,(AQ) but the gift of God is eternal life(AR) in[b] Christ Jesus our Lord.
