Romans 6:15-18

New American Standard Bible

¹⁵ What then? ^(A)Are we to sin because we are not under ^[a]the Law but under grace? ^[b](B)Far from it! ¹⁶ Do you not ^(C)know that the one to whom you present yourselves as ^(D)slaves for obedience, you are slaves of that same one whom you obey, either of ^(E)sin ^[c]resulting in death, or of obedience ^[d]resulting in righteousness? ¹⁷ But ^(F)thanks be to God that ^[e]though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that ^[f](G)form of teaching to which you were entrusted, ¹⁸ and after being ^(H)freed from sin, you became slaves to righteousness.
