Romans 6:20-23
New American Standard Bible
20 For (A)when you were slaves of sin, you were free in relation to righteousness. 21 Therefore what [a](B)benefit were you then [b]deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the outcome of those things is (C)death. 22 But now having been (D)freed from sin and (E)enslaved to God, you [c]derive your [d](F)benefit, [e]resulting in sanctification, and (G)the outcome, 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.

Revised Standard Version
20 When you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. 21 But then what return did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end of those things is death. 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is sanctification and its end, eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
