concerning his Son, having been born of the seed of David according to the flesh;

having been ordained the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, from the resurrection of the dead, of Jesus Christ our Lord:

For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how I unceasingly make mention of you always in my prayer;

for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are seen, being known by the things which are made, even His eternal power and divinity; so that they are without excuse:

Then what? are we the better? By no means: for we have proven already that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin;

Therefore no flesh shall be justified by works of law: for through law there is a perfect knowledge of sin.

blessed is the man of whom the Lord may not impute sin.

And he received the sign of circumcision, and the seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had in uncircumcision: that he should be the father of all who believed, through uncircumcision; and righteousness should be imputed to them;

For if being enemies we are reconciled to God through the death of his Son; how much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved through his life:

Therefore, as by one man sin came into the world, and death by sin; and thus death came upon all men, in that all sinned;

(for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed, there being no law;

but death reigned from Adam unto Moses, even on those who did not sin after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the type of him who is to come.

But the law came, that the transgression might abound; but where sin did abound, there did grace superabound:

in order that as sin reigned through death, so may grace reign also through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Then what shall we say? must we abide in sin, in order that grace may abound?

It could not be so. How shall we, who are dead unto sin, live any longer in it?

knowing this, that our old man is crucified along with him, in order that the body of sin may be destroyed, that we may no longer serve sin;

for the one having died has been made free from sin.

For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he lives, he lives unto God.

So you also thus reckon yourselves dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ.

Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body that you should obey the lusts of it:

neither present your members arms of iniquity unto sin; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members arms of righteousness unto God.

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under the law, but under grace.

What then? can we commit sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? it could not be so.

Do you not know, that to whom you present yourselves servants unto obedience, ye are servants to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or obedience unto righteousness?

But thanks be unto God, that whereas ye were servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart the type of teaching into which ye were delivered:

but having been made free from sin, ye became servants unto righteousness.

For when you were the servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.

But now having been made free from sin, and having become servants unto God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life.

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

Then what shall we say? is the law sin? It could not be so; but I did not know sin except through the law: for indeed I had not known lusts, unless the law said, Thou shalt not covet.

But sin, taking occasion through the commandment, did work in me all concupiscence; for without law sin was dead.

But I was alive at one time without law: but the commandment having come, sin revived,

For sin, taking occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it slew me.

Then did that which is good become death to me? it could not be so: but sin, that it may appear sin, through the good was working out death to me, in order that sin may be exceedingly sinful through the commandment.

For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, having been sold under sin.

but now it is no more I that do it, but sin dwelling in me.

If I do that which I do not will, it is no longer I that do it, but sin dwelling in me.

but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

Thanks be unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord: then therefore with the mind I serve the law of God; but with carnality the law of sin.

For the law of the Spirit of life has made thee free from the law of sin and of death.

For there was an impotency of the law, in which it was weak through depravity, God having sent his own Son in the likeness of the sin of depravity and for sin, condemned sin in depravity:

But if Christ is in you, the body is dead so far as sin is concerned; but the Spirit is life so far as righteousness is concerned.

For we are saved by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for why does any one indeed hope for that which he sees?

Because whom he did foreknow, he did also predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brethren:

Indeed he who spared not his own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how will He not with him, freely give us all things?

For this is the word of the promise, About this time I will come, and there shall be a son to Sarah.

as has been written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence: and he that believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

and so all Israel shall be saved: as has been written, A leader shall come out of Zion, shall turn ungodliness from Jacob.

but if he may eat doubting, he has been condemned, because it is not of faith; but every thing which is not of faith is sin.
