5. For if we have become identified with him in the likeness of his death, certainly also we will be identified with him in the likeness of his resurrection,
6. knowing this, that our old man was crucified together with him, in order that the body of sin may be done away with, that we may no longer be enslaved to sin.
7. For the one who has died has been freed from sin.
8. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,
9. knowing that Christ, because he has been raised from the dead, is going to die no more, death no longer being master over him.
10. For that death he died, he died to sin once and never again, but that life he lives, he lives to God.
11. So also you, consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
12. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey its desires,
13. and do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead, and your members to God as instruments of righteousness.
