NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Romans 6

Believers Are Dead to Sin, Alive to God

1

 aWhatg5101 shall we sayg3004 theng3767? Are we to  bcontinueg1961 in sing266 sog2443 that graceg5485 may increaseg4121?

2

 aMay it neverg3361 be! Howg4459 shall we whog3748  bdiedg599 to sing266 stillg2089 liveg2198 in it?

3

Org2228 do you not knowg50 that allg3745 of us whog3745 have been  abaptizedg907 into  bChristg5547 Jesusg2424 have been baptizedg907 into His deathg2288?

4

Thereforeg3767 we have been  aburiedg4916 with Him throughg1223 baptismg908 into deathg2288, sog3779 that as Christg5547 was  braisedg1453 from the deadg3498 throughg1223 the  cgloryg1391 of the Fatherg3962, sog3779 we toog2532 might walkg4043 in  dnewnessg2538 of lifeg2222.

5

For  aifg1487 we have becomeg1096  1unitedg4854 with Him in the likenessg3667 of His deathg2288, certainlyg235 we shall alsog2532 be  2in the likeness of His resurrectiong386,

6

knowingg1097 thisg3778, that our  aoldg3820  1selfg444 was  bcrucifiedg4957 with Him, in orderg2443 that our  cbodyg4983 of sing266 might be  2doneg2673 awayg2673 with, so that we would nog3371 longerg3371 be slavesg1398 to sing266;

7

for  ahe who has diedg599 is  1freedg1344 from sing266.

8

Nowg1161  aifg1487 we have diedg599 with Christg5547, we believeg4100 that we shall alsog2532 liveg4800 with Him,

9

knowingg3609a that Christg5547, having been  araisedg1453 from the deadg3498,  1is neverg3765 to dieg599 againg3765;  bdeathg2288 nog3765 longerg3765 is masterg2961 overg2961 Him.

10

For the death that He diedg599, He diedg599 to sing266 onceg2178 for allg2178; but the lifeg2198 that He livesg2198, He livesg2198 to Godg2316.

11

Eveng2532 sog3779 considerg3049 yourselvesg1438 to be  adeadg3498 to sing266, but aliveg2198 to Godg2316 in Christg5547 Jesusg2424.

12

Thereforeg3767 do not let sing266  areigng936 in your mortalg2349 bodyg4983 sog1519 that you obeyg5219 its lustsg1939,

13

and do not go on  apresentingg3936  1the membersg3196 of your body to sing266 as  2instrumentsg3696 of unrighteousnessg93; but  bpresentg3936 yourselvesg1438 to Godg2316 as those aliveg2198 from the deadg3498, and your membersg3196 as  2instrumentsg3696 of righteousnessg1343 to Godg2316.

14

For  asing266 shall not  bbe masterg2961 overg2961 you, for  cyou are not underg5259 lawg3551 but  dunderg5259 graceg5485.

15

Whatg5101 theng3767?  aShall we sing264 becauseg3754 we are not underg5259 lawg3551 but underg5259 graceg5485?  bMay it neverg3361 be!

16

Do you not  aknowg3609a that wheng3739 you presentg3936 yourselvesg1438 to someoneg3739 as  bslavesg1401 for obedienceg5218, you are slavesg1401 of the one whomg3739 you obeyg5219, eitherg2273 of  csing266  1resultingg1519 in deathg2288, org2228 of obedienceg5218  2resultingg1519 in righteousnessg1343?

17

But  athanksg5485 be to Godg2316 that  1though you were slavesg1401 of sing266, you becameg5219 obedientg5219 from the heartg2588 to that  bformg5179b of teachingg1322 to whichg3739 you were committedg3860,

18

and having been  afreedg1659 from sing266, you becameg1402 slavesg1402 of righteousnessg1343.

19

 aI am speakingg3004 in humang442 termsg442 becauseg1223 of the weaknessg769 of your fleshg4561. For justg5618  bas you presentedg3936 your membersg3196 as slavesg1401 to impurityg167 and to lawlessnessg458,  1resultingg1519 in further lawlessnessg458, sog3779 nowg3568 presentg3936 your membersg3196 as slavesg1401 to righteousnessg1343,  2resultingg1519 in sanctificationg38.

20

For  awheng3753 you were slavesg1401 of sing266, you were freeg1658 in regard to righteousnessg1343.

21

Thereforeg3767 whatg5101  1 abenefitg2590 were you theng5119  2derivingg2192  3from the things of whichg3739 you are nowg3568 ashamedg1870? For the outcomeg5056 of thoseg1565 thingsg1565 is  bdeathg2288.

22

But nowg3570 having been  afreedg1659 from sing266 and  benslavedg1402 to Godg2316, you  1deriveg2192 your  2 cbenefitg2590,  3resultingg1519 in sanctificationg38, and  dthe outcomeg5056, eternalg166 lifeg2222.

23

For the wagesg3800 of  asing266 is deathg2288, but the freeg5486 giftg5486 of Godg2316 is  beternalg166 lifeg2222 in Christg5547 Jesusg2424 our Lordg2962.
