Romans 6:1-11

¹What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?

²let it not be! we who died to the sin — how shall we still live in it?

³are ye ignorant that we, as many as were baptized to Christ Jesus, to his death were baptized?

⁴we were buried together, then, with him through the baptism to the death, that even as Christ was raised up out of the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we in newness of life might walk.

⁵For, if we have become planted together to the likeness of his death, so also we shall be of the rising again;

⁶this knowing, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;

⁷for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.

⁸And if we died with Christ, we believe that we also shall live with him,

⁹knowing that Christ, having been raised up out of the dead, doth no more die, death over him hath no more lordship;

¹⁰for in that he died, to the sin he died once, and in that he liveth, he liveth to God;

¹¹so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
