Romans 6:16-18 Do you not know that to whatsoever you deliver yourselves up as servants at command, you are the slaves of that which you obey, whether it be of sin for death; or of obedience for righteousness.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Do you not know that to whatsoever you deliver yourselves up as servants at command, you are the slaves of that which you obey, whether it be of sin for death; or of obedience for righteousness. ¹⁷ But thanks be to God, that though you were slaves of sin, yet from the heart you have conformed to the mould of doctrine in which you were cast, ¹⁸ and being freed from sin, have become servants of righteousness.
