Romans 6:13-19 neither yield your members as instruments to iniquity: but yield yourselves unto God, as being alive after having been dead; and your members as instruments of righteousness.

Mace⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ neither yield your members as instruments to iniquity: but yield yourselves unto God, as being alive after having been dead; and your members as instruments of righteousness. ¹⁴ for then sin shall have no dominion over you: because you are not under the legal, but under the gospel dispensation. ¹⁵ What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under the gospel? ¹⁶ by no means. know ye not, that to whom ye subject your selves vassals at command, his vassals you are whom you thus obey; the vassals either of sin to destruction, or of obedience to justification? ¹⁷ but God be thanked, that you, who were the vassals of sin, have sincerely obeyed in the manner the gospel prescribed. ¹⁸ being then set free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. ¹⁹ (I allude to civil affairs, because of your unacquaintedness with spiritual matters:) as then you made your natural faculties subservient to impurity, and all manner of vice; make them now subservient to virtue and holiness.
