6:1  quid ergo dicemus permanebimus in       1.  What shall we say then? Shall we
peccato ut gratia abundet                    continue in sin, that grace may abound?

6:2  absit qui enim mortui sumus             2.  God forbid. How shall we, that are
peccato quomodo adhuc vivemus in illo        dead to sin, live any longer therein?

6:3  an ignoratis quia quicumque             3.  Know ye not, that so many of us as
baptizati sumus in Christo Iesu in           were baptized into Jesus Christ were
morte ipsius baptizati sumus                 baptized into his death?

6:4  consepulti enim sumus cum illo per      4.  Therefore we are buried with him by
baptismum in mortem ut quomodo surrexit      baptism into death: that like as Christ
Christus a mortuis per gloriam Patris        was raised up from the dead by the
ita et nos in novitate vitae ambulemus       glory of the Father, even so we also
                                             should walk in newness of life.

6:5  si enim conplantati facti sumus         5.  For if we have been planted
similitudini mortis eius simul et            together in the likeness of his death,
resurrectionis erimus                        we shall be also in the likeness of his
                                             resurrection:

6:6  hoc scientes quia vetus homo            6.  Knowing this, that our old man is
noster simul crucifixus est ut               crucified with him, that the body of
destruatur corpus peccati ut ultra non       sin might be destroyed, that henceforth
serviamus peccato                            we should not serve sin.

6:7  qui enim mortuus est iustificatus       7.  For he that is dead is freed from
est a peccato                                sin.

6:8  si autem mortui sumus cum Christo       8.  Now if we be dead with Christ, we
credimus quia simul etiam vivemus cum        believe that we shall also live with
Christo                                      him:

6:9  scientes quod Christus surgens ex       9.  Knowing that Christ being raised
mortuis iam non moritur mors illi ultra      from the dead dieth no more; death hath
non dominabitur                              no more dominion over him.

6:10  quod enim mortuus est peccato          10.  For in that he died, he died unto
mortuus est semel quod autem vivit           sin once: but in that he liveth, he
vivit Deo                                    liveth unto God.

6:11  ita et vos existimate vos mortuos      11.  Likewise reckon ye also yourselves
quidem esse peccato viventes autem Deo       to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive
in Christo Iesu                              unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

6:12  non ergo regnet peccatum in            12.  Let not sin therefore reign in
vestro mortali corpore ut oboediatis         your mortal body, that ye should obey
concupiscentiis eius                         it in the lusts thereof.

6:13  sed neque exhibeatis membra            13.  Neither yield ye your members as
vestra arma iniquitatis peccato sed          instruments of unrighteousness unto
exhibete vos Deo tamquam ex mortuis          sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as
viventes et membra vestra arma               those that are alive from the dead, and
iustitiae Deo                                your members as instruments of
                                             righteousness unto God.

6:14  peccatum enim vobis non                14.  For sin shall not have dominion
dominabitur non enim sub lege estis sed      over you: for ye are not under the law,
sub gratia                                   but under grace.

6:15  quid ergo peccavimus quoniam non       15.  What then? shall we sin, because
sumus sub lege sed sub gratia absit          we are not under the law, but under
                                             grace? God forbid.

6:16  nescitis quoniam cui exhibetis         16.  Know ye not, that to whom ye yield
vos servos ad oboediendum servi estis        yourselves servants to obey, his
eius cui oboeditis sive peccati sive         servants ye are to whom ye obey;
oboeditionis ad iustitiam                    whether of sin unto death, or of
                                             obedience unto righteousness?

6:17  gratias autem Deo quod fuistis         17.  But God be thanked, that ye were
servi peccati oboedistis autem ex corde      the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed
in eam formam doctrinae in qua traditi       from the heart that form of doctrine
estis                                        which was delivered you.

6:18  liberati autem a peccato servi         18.  Being then made free from sin, ye
facti estis iustitiae                        became the servants of righteousness.

6:19  humanum dico propter infirmitatem      19.  I speak after the manner of men
carnis vestrae sicut enim exhibuistis        because of the infirmity of your flesh:
membra vestra servire inmunditiae et         for as ye have yielded your members
iniquitati ad iniquitatem ita nunc           servants to uncleanness and to iniquity
exhibete membra vestra servire               unto iniquity; even so now yield your
iustitiae in sanctificationem                members servants to righteousness unto
                                             holiness.

6:20  cum enim servi essetis peccati         20.  For when ye were the servants of
liberi fuistis iustitiae                     sin, ye were free from righteousness.

6:21  quem ergo fructum habuistis tunc       21.  What fruit had ye then in those
in quibus nunc erubescitis nam finis         things whereof ye are now ashamed? for
illorum mors est                             the end of those things is death.

6:22  nunc vero liberati a peccato           22.  But now being made free from sin,
servi autem facti Deo habetis fructum        and become servants to God, ye have
vestrum in sanctificationem finem vero       your fruit unto holiness, and the end
vitam aeternam                               everlasting life.

6:23  stipendia enim peccati mors            23.  For the wages of sin is death; but
gratia autem Dei vita aeterna in             the gift of God is eternal life through
Christo Iesu Domino nostro                   Jesus Christ our Lord.
