And not only [so], but we also joy in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

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

But not as the offense, so also [is] the free gift. For if through the offense of one many are dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, [which is] by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded to many.

And not as [it was] by one that sinned, [so is] the gift. For the judgment [was] by one to condemnation, but the free gift [is] of many offenses to justification.

Moreover the law entered, that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

For in that he died, he died to sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth to God.

Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness to sin: but yield yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness to God:

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

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? By no means.

But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin; but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

But now being made free from sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit to holiness, and the end everlasting life.

For the wages of sin [is] death: but the gift of God [is] eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

For the woman who hath a husband, is bound by the law to [her] husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband is dead, she is loosed from the law of [her] husband.

So then, if while [her] husband liveth, she is married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband is dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.

But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead by which we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not [in] the oldness of the letter.

What shall we say then? [Is] the law sin? By no means. No, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.

But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin [was] dead.

For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

Was then that which is good made death to me? By no means. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
