³¹ Do we then nullify ^[a]the Law through faith? ^(A)May it never be! On the contrary, we ^(B)establish the Law.

Believers Are Dead to Sin, Alive to God

6 ^(A)What shall we say then? Are we to ^(B)continue in sin so that grace may increase? ^2 (C)May it never be! How shall we who ^(D)died to sin still live in it? ³ Or do you not know that all of us who have been ^(E)baptized into ^(F)Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death?

¹⁴ For ^(A)sin shall not ^(B)be master over you, for ^(C)you are not under law but ^(D)under grace.

¹⁵ What then? ^(E)Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? ^(F)May it never be! ¹⁶ Do you not ^(G)know that when you present yourselves to someone as ^(H)slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of ^(I)sin ^[a]resulting in death, or of obedience ^[b]resulting in righteousness?
