concerning his Son who was made from the seed of David according to flesh.

He who was designated Son of God in power, according to a spirit of holiness, from a resurrection of the dead--Jesus Christ our Lord--

For God is my witness whom I serve in my spirit in the good-news of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things made, both his eternal power and divinity, for them to be without excuse.

What then? Are we better? Not at all. For we already charged both Jews and Greeks to all be under sin,

Because from works of law no flesh will be made right before him, for through law is knowledge of sin.

Blessed is a man to whom the Lord does, no, not impute sin.

And he received the sign of circumcision, as a seal of the righteousness of his faith during uncircumcision, for him to be father of all those who believe during uncircumcision (for righteousness to also be imputed to them),

For if, while being enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more having been reconciled we will be saved by his life.

Because of this, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, so also death passed to all men, in that all sinned.

For until law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who did not sin in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is a type of the coming man.

And the law entered so that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace was more abundant,

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

What will we say then? We continue in sin so that grace may abound?

May it not happen! How will we who died to sin, still live in it?

Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, so that the body of sin might be inactivated, no longer to enslave us to sin.

For he who has died has been made righteous away from sin.

For that he died, he died to sin once, but that he lives, he lives to God.

So also ye, reckon yourselves to be indeed dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body in order to obey it, in its lusts.

And do not present your body-parts as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God, as living out of the dead, and your body-parts as instruments of righteousness to God,

for sin will not have dominion over you. For ye are not under law, but under grace.

What then? May we sin, because we are not under law but under grace? May it not happen!

Know ye not, that to what ye present yourselves as bondmen for obedience, ye are bondmen to what ye obey, whether of sin for death, or of obedience for righteousness?

But thanks to God, that ye were bondmen of sin, but ye obeyed from the heart a model of doctrine for which ye were delivered.

And having been set free from sin, ye were made servile to righteousness

For when ye were bondmen of sin, ye were uninhibited by righteousness.

But now having been made free from sin, and having become servile to God, ye have your fruit for sanctification, and the end, eternal life.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

What will we say then? The law is sin? May it not happen! Yet I did not know sin except through law. For likewise I would not have known lust, if the law did not say, Thou shall not covet.

But sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, wrought in me every evil desire, for apart from law sin is dead.

And I was alive once apart from law, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

For sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

Has therefore what is good become death to me? May it not happen! Instead, it is sin, so that it might be revealed, sin working death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful to extreme.

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

But now I no longer perform it, but the sin dwelling in me.

But if I do this that I do not want, I no longer perform it, but sin dwelling in me.

but I see a different law in my body-parts, warring against the law of my mind, and taking me captive in the law of sin, which is in my body-parts.

I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then, I of myself in the mind indeed serve a law of God, but in the flesh a law of sin.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus freed me from the law of sin and of death.

For the impotence of the law, in that it was weak because of the flesh, God, having sent his own Son in a form of flesh of sin, and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh,

And if Christ is in you, the body is indeed dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

For we were saved to hope. But hope that is seen is not hope. For what is seen, why also hope for that?

Because whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be of similar nature of the form of his Son, in order for him to be the firstborn son among many brothers.

He who did not even spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how will he not also give us all things with him?

For this is the word of promise: At this time I will come, and there will be a son by Sarah.

just as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense. And every man who believes in him will not be shamed.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written, The man who delivers will come from Zion, and will turn away impiety from Jacob.

But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it is not from faith, and everything that is not from faith is sin.
