1. What, then, shall we say? Shall we continue in sin, to let favour increase?
2. Let it not be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it?
3. Or do you not know that as many of us as were immersed into Messiah יהושע were immersed into His death?
4. We were therefore buried with Him through immersion into death, that as Messiah was raised from the dead by the esteem of the Father, so also we should walk in newness of life.
5. For if we have come to be grown together in the likeness of His death, we shall be also of the resurrection,
6. knowing this, that our old man was impaled with Him, so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, to serve sin no longer.
7. For he who has died has been made right from sin.
