Romans 6:18-20
American Standard Version
18 and being made free from sin, ye became [a]servants of righteousness. 19 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. 20 For when ye were [b]servants of sin, ye were free in regard of righteousness.

18 And (A)having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. 19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness [a]for holiness.
20 For when you were (B)slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.
