For if we have been united with him in the likeness of his death,(A) we will certainly also be[a] in the likeness of his resurrection. For we know that our old self[b](B) was crucified with him(C) so that the body ruled by sin[c] might be rendered powerless(D) so that we may no longer be enslaved to sin, since a person who has died(E) is freed[d] from sin. Now if we died with Christ,(F) we believe that we will also live with him, because we know that Christ, having been raised from the dead,(G) will not die again. Death no longer rules over him.(H) 10 For the death he died, he died to sin once for all time; but the life he lives, he lives to God. 11 So, you too consider yourselves dead to sin(I) and alive to God in Christ Jesus.[e]

For gar if ei we have become ginomai united symphytos with him in the ho likeness homoiōma of ho his autos death thanatos, we will eimi certainly alla also kai be eimi united with him in the likeness of his ho resurrection anastasis. We know ginōskō this houtos, that hoti · ho our hēmeis old palaios self anthrōpos was crucified systauroō with him, so hina that the ho body sōma of ho sin hamartia would be rendered powerless katargeō, so ho that we hēmeis would no mēketi longer be enslaved douleuō by ho sin hamartia; for gar the ho one who has died apothnēskō has been set dikaioō free from apo · ho sin hamartia. Now de if ei we have died apothnēskō with syn Christ Christos, we believe pisteuō that hoti we will also kai live syzaō with him autos. We know oida that hoti Christ Christos, having been raised egeirō from ek the dead nekros, will apothnēskō never die apothnēskō again ouketi; death thanatos no longer ouketi has mastery kyrieuō over him autos. 10 For gar the death hos he died apothnēskō, he died apothnēskō to ho sin hamartia once ephapax for all ; but de the life hos he lives zaō, he lives zaō to ho God theos. 11 So houtōs you hymeis too kai consider logizomai yourselves heautou to be eimi dead nekros to ho sin hamartia but de alive zaō to ho God theos in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous.
