18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. |
19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. |
20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. |
21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. |
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. |
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. |
