6:1

Τι ουν ερουμεν επιμενωμεν τη αμαρτια ινα η χαρις πλεοναση

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

¹

6:2

μη γενοιτο οιτινες απεθανομεν τη αμαρτια πως ετι ζησομεν εν αυτη

God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein?

6:3

η αγνοειτε οτι οσοι εβαπτισθημεν εις Χριστον Ιησουν εις τον θανατον αυτου εβαπτισθημεν

Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

6:4

συνεταφημεν ουν αυτω δια του βαπτισματος εις τον θανατον ινα ωσπερ ηγερθη Χριστος εκ νεκρων δια της δοξης του Πατρος ουτως και ημεις εν καινοτητι ζωης περιπατησωμεν

We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.

6:5

Ει γαρ συμφυτοι γεγοναμεν τω ομοιωματι του θανατου αυτου αλλα και της αναστασεως εσομεθα

For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection;

6:6

τουτο γινωσκοντες οτι ο παλαιος ημων ανθρωπος συνεσταυρωθη ινα καταργηθη το σωμα της αμαρτιας του μηκετι δουλευειν ημας τη αμαρτια

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;

6:7

ο γαρ αποθανων δεδικαιωται απο της αμαρτιας

for he that hath died is justified from sin.

6:8

Ει δε απεθανομεν συν Χριστω πιστευομεν οτι και συζησομεν αυτω

But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him;

6:9

ειδοτες οτι Χριστος εγερθεις εκ νεκρων ουκετι αποθνησκει θανατος αυτου ουκετι κυριευει

knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him.

6:10

ο γαρ απεθανεν τη αμαρτια απεθανεν εφαπαξ ο δε ζη ζη τω Θεω

For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

6:11

ουτως και υμεις λογιζεσθε εαυτους ειναι νεκρους μεν τη αμαρτια ζωντας δε τω Θεω εν Χριστω Ιησου

Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.

6:12

Μη ουν βασιλευετω η αμαρτια εν τω θνητω υμων σωματι εις το υπακουειν ταις επιθυμιαις αυτου

Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof:

6:13

μηδε παριστανετε τα μελη υμων οπλα αδικιας τη αμαρτια αλλα παραστησατε εαυτους τω Θεω ωσει εκ νεκρων ζωντας και τα μελη υμων οπλα δικαιοσυνης τω Θεω

neither present your members unto sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves unto God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

6:14

αμαρτια γαρ υμων ου κυριευσει ου γαρ εστε υπο νομον αλλα υπο χαριν

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.

6:15

Τι ουν αμαρτησωμεν οτι ουκ εσμεν υπο νομον αλλα υπο χαριν μη γενοιτο

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.

6:16

ουκ οιδατε οτι ω παριστανετε εαυτους δουλους εις υπακοην δουλοι εστε ω υπακουετε ητοι αμαρτιας εις θανατον η υπακοης εις δικαιοσυνην

Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves as servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

6:17

χαρις δε τω Θεω οτι ητε δουλοι της αμαρτιας υπηκουσατε δε εκ καρδιας εις ον παρεδοθητε τυπον διδαχης

But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye were servants of sin, ye became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto ye were delivered;

6:18

ελευθερωθεντες δε απο της αμαρτιας εδουλωθητε τη δικαιοσυνη

and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.

6:19

Ανθρωπινον λεγω δια την ασθενειαν της σαρκος υμων ωσπερ γαρ παρεστησατε τα μελη υμων δουλα τη ακαθαρσια και τη ανομια εις την ανομιαν ουτως νυν παραστησατε τα μελη υμων δουλα τη δικαιοσυνη εις αγιασμον

I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness unto sanctification.

6:20

Οτε γαρ δουλοι ητε της αμαρτιας ελευθεροι ητε τη δικαιοσυνη

For when ye were servants of sin, ye were free in regard of righteousness.

6:21

τινα ουν καρπον ειχετε τοτε εφ οις νυν επαισχυνεσθε το γαρ τελος εκεινων θανατος

What fruit then had ye at that time in the things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.

6:22

νυνι δε ελευθερωθεντες απο της αμαρτιας δουλωθεντες δε τω Θεω εχετε τον καρπον υμων εις αγιασμον το δε τελος ζωην αιωνιον

But now being made free from sin and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life.

6:23

τα γαρ οψωνια της αμαρτιας θανατος το δε χαρισμα του Θεου ζωη αιωνιος εν Χριστω Ιησου τω Κυριω ημων

For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
