Romans 6:17-19 But thanks be to God that you were slaves of sin, but you obeyed from the heart the form of doctrine to which you were delivered.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ But thanks be to God that you were slaves of sin, but you obeyed from the heart the form of doctrine to which you were delivered. ¹⁸ And having been set free from sin, you were enslaved to righteousness. ¹⁹ I speak as a man on account of the weakness of your flesh. For as you presented your members as slaves to uncleanness and to lawless act unto lawless act, so now yield your members as slaves to righteousness unto sanctification.
