For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection; knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin. For he who has died has been freed from sin. But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him; knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him! 10 For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God. 11 Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

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]
