²⁰ I have been ^(A)crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh ^(B)I live by faith in the Son of God, ^(C)who loved me and gave Himself for me.

²¹ For ^(A)to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for ^[a]us, ^(B)leaving ^[b]us an example, that you should follow His steps:

^23 (D)who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but ^(E)committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; ^24 (F)who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, ^(G)that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—^(H)by whose ^[c]stripes you were healed.

^6 (A)He who says he abides in Him ^(B)ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
