Legacy Standard Bible
20 For (A)when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. 21 Therefore what [a](B)benefit were you then having [b]from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is (C)death. 22 But now having been (D)freed from sin and (E)enslaved to God, you have your [c](F)benefit, [d]leading to sanctification, and (G)the end, eternal life. 23 For the wages of (H)sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is (I)eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 6:20-23
International Standard Version
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[a] Jesus our Lord.
