Romans 6:12-14
New Living Translation
12 Do not let sin control the way you live;[a] do not give in to sinful desires. 13 Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God. 14 Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.

Romans 6:12-14
English Standard Version
12 Let not (A)sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions. 13 (B)Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but (C)present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness. 14 For (D)sin (E)will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.
