[영어 성경] Romans chapter 6

Ro. 6:1 What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning, so that

grace may increase?

Ro. 6:2 By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any

longer?

Ro. 6:3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptised into

Christ Jesus were baptised into his death?

Ro. 6:4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into

death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead

through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

Ro. 6:5 If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will

certainly also be united with him in his resurrection.

Ro. 6:6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that

the body of sin might be done away with, [Or be rendered

powerless] that we should no longer be slaves to sin —

Ro. 6:7 because anyone who has died has been freed from sin.

Ro. 6:8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live

with him.

Ro. 6:9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he

cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.

Ro. 6:10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he

lives, he lives to God.

Ro. 6:11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to

God in Christ Jesus.

Ro. 6:12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you

obey its evil desires.

Ro. 6:13 Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of

wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who

have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of

your body to him as instruments of righteousness.

Ro. 6:14 For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under

law, but under grace.

Ro. 6:15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but

under grace? By no means!

Ro. 6:16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone

to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you

obey — whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death,

or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?

Ro. 6:17 But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to

sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which

you were entrusted.

Ro. 6:18 You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to

righteousness.

Ro. 6:19 I put this in human terms because you are weak in your

natural selves. Just as you used to offer the parts of your

body in slavery to impurity and to ever-increasing

wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness

leading to holiness.

Ro. 6:20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control

of righteousness.

397

Ro. 6:21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you

are now ashamed of? Those things result in death!

Ro. 6:22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have

become slaves to God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness,

and the result is eternal life.

Ro. 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal

life in [Or through] Christ Jesus our Lord.
