*
What then ?
Shall we sin ,
because we are not under law ,
but under grace ?
May it never be !
*
Don '
t you know that to whom you present yourselves as servants to obedience ,
his servants you are whom you obey ;
whether of sin to death ,
or of obedience to righteousness ?
*
But thanks be to God ,
that ,
whereas you were bondservants of sin ,
you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto you were delivered .
*
Being made free from sin ,
you became bondservants of righteousness .
*
I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh ,
for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness ,
even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification .
*
For when you were servants of sin ,
you were free in regard to righteousness .
*
What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed ?
For the end of those things is death .
*
But now ,
being made free from sin ,
and having become servants of God ,
you have your fruit of sanctification ,
and the result of eternal life .
*
For the wages of sin is death ,
but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord .
