For (A)if we have become [a]united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be [b]in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our (B)old [c]self was (C)crucified with Him, in order that our (D)body of sin might be [d]done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; for (E)the one who has died is [e]freed from sin.

Now (F)if we have died with Christ, we believe that (G)we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been (H)raised from the dead, [f]is never to die again; (I)death no longer is master over Him. 10 For [g]the death that He died, He died to sin once for all time; but [h]the life that He lives, He lives to [i]God. 11 So you too, consider yourselves to be (J)dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

For if we have become [a]united with him in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection; knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away, that so we should no longer be in bondage to sin; for he that hath died is [b]justified from sin. But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him; knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him. 10 For [c]the death that he died, he died unto sin [d]once: but [e]the life that he liveth, he liveth unto God. 11 Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
