Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin [leading] to death, or of obedience [leading] to righteousness?

so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

'But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall be that those whom you let remain [shall be] irritants in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they shall harass you in the land where you dwell.

"and when the LORD your God delivers them over to you, you shall conquer them [and] utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them.

"Or else, if indeed you do go back, and cling to the remnant of these nations -- these that remain among you -- and make marriages with them, and go in to them and they to you,

"know for certain that the LORD your God will no longer drive out these nations from before you. But they shall be snares and traps to you, and scourges on your sides and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land which the LORD your God has given you.

"Therefore I also said, 'I will not drive them out before you; but they shall be [thorns] in your side, and their gods shall be a snare to you.' "

Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous [sins;] Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression.

Direct my steps by Your word, And let no iniquity have dominion over me.

But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality.

So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

For we who are in [this] tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life.

Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin [leading] to death, or of obedience [leading] to righteousness?

but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness -- indignation and wrath,

For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to [fulfill its] lusts.

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

And those [who are] Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God;

Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,

For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.

But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.

Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

Where do wars and fights [come] from among you? Do [they] not [come] from your [desires for] pleasure that war in your members?

You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend [it] on your pleasures.

as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, [as] in your ignorance;

Beloved, I beg [you] as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,

that he no longer should live the rest of [his] time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

For we [have spent] enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles -- when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling [words,] flattering people to gain advantage.

how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts.
