³ Do you not know that all of us ^(A)who have been baptized ^(B)into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? ⁴ We were ^(C)buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as ^(D)Christ was raised from the dead by ^(E)the glory of the Father, we too might walk in ^(F)newness of life.

⁵ For ^(G)if we have been united with him in ^(H)a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.

¹¹ In him also ^(A)you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by ^(B)putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, ^12 (C)having been buried with him in baptism, in which ^(D)you were also raised with him through faith in ^(E)the powerful working of God, ^(F)who raised him from the dead. ^13 (G)And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God ^(H)made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, ¹⁴ by ^(I)canceling ^(J)the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. ^15 (K)He disarmed the rulers and authorities^[a] and ^(L)put them to open shame, by ^(M)triumphing over them in him.^[b]
