2 Hargiz nahīṅ! Ham to mar kar gunāh se lātālluq ho gae haiṅ. To phir ham kis tarah gunāh ko apne āp par hukūmat karne de sakte haiṅ? 3 Yā kyā āp ko mālūm nahīṅ ki ham sab jinheṅ baptismā diyā gayā hai is se Masīh Īsā kī maut meṅ shāmil ho gae haiṅ? 4 Kyoṅki baptisme se hameṅ dafnāyā gayā aur us kī maut meṅ shāmil kiyā gayā tāki ham Masīh kī tarah naī zindagī guzāreṅ, jise Bāp kī jalālī qudrat ne murdoṅ meṅ se zindā kiyā.

5 Chūṅki is tarah ham us kī maut meṅ us ke sāth paiwast ho gae haiṅ is lie ham us ke jī uṭhne meṅ bhī us ke sāth paiwast hoṅge. 6 Kyoṅki ham jānte haiṅ ki hamārā purānā insān Masīh ke sāth maslūb ho gayā tāki gunāh ke qabze meṅ yih jism nest ho jāe aur yoṅ ham gunāh ke ġhulām na raheṅ. 7 Kyoṅki jo mar gayā wuh gunāh se āzād ho gayā hai.
