12 Don't let sin therefore reign in your{} mortal body, that you{} should obey its desires:
13 neither present your{} members to sin [as] instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your{} members [as] instruments of righteousness to God.
14 For sin will not have dominion over you{}: for you{} are not under law, but under grace.
15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Don't you{} know, that to whom you{} present yourselves [as] slaves to obedience, his slaves you{} are whom you{} obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 But thanks be to God, that, whereas you{} were slaves of sin, you{} became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you{} were delivered;
18 and being made free from sin, you{} were made a slave to righteousness.
