20. For when you were slaves of sin, you were free with regard to righteousness.
21. So what benefit did you then reap from those things that you are now ashamed of? For the end of those things is death.
22. But now, freed from sin and enslaved to God, you have your benefit leading to sanctification, and the end is eternal life.
23. For the payoff of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
