5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

9 For I was alive without the law once: but chap. 3, 20 when the commandment came, sin revived,and Idied, 22 10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.

12" Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal i Pet. 2,24 body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments m Ps. 19,13. of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto 11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandGod, as those that are alive from the dead, and your ment, deceived me, and by it slew me. members ast instruments of righteousness unto God. 12 Wherefore the law is holy; and the com14° For sin shall not have dominion over you:mandment holy, and just, and good. for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield your-by

ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience
unto righteousness?

r

17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin: but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the

15 For that which I do, I † allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.

17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with 2 Tim. 2, me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19. 19 For the good that I would, I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.

20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

22 But now being made free from sin, and be-ward man:
come servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holi-
ness; and the end, everlasting life.

23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of
God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
