2 Far be the thought. We who have died to sin, how shall we still live in it?

3 Are you ignorant that we, as many as have been baptised unto Christ Jesus, have been baptised unto his death?

4 We have been buried therefore with him by baptism unto death, in order that, even as Christ has been raised up from among {the} dead by the glory of the Father, so *we* also should walk in newness of life.

5 For if we are become identified with {him} in the likeness of his death, so also we shall be of {his} resurrection;

6 knowing this, that our old man has been crucified with {him}, that the body of sin might be annulled, that we should no longer serve sin.

7 For he that has died is justified from sin.
