Notes on this text (1)
- New Testament only; original spelling.
1 What shall we saye then? Shall we continue in synne that there maye be aboundaunce of grace?
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbyd. How shall we that are deed as touchynge synne live eny lenger therin?
2 May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
3 Remember ye not that all we which are baptysed in the name of Iesu Christ are baptysed to dye with him?
3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
4 We are buryed with him by baptism for to dye that lykewyse as Christ was raysed vp from deeth by the glorye of the father: even so we also shuld walke in a newe lyfe.
4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
5 For yf we be graft in deeth lyke vnto him: even so must we be in the resurreccion.
5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
6 This we must remember that oure olde man is crucified with him also that the body of synne myght vtterly be destroyed that hence forth we shuld not be servauntes of synne.
6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.
7 For he that is deed ys iustified from synne.
7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.
8 Wherfore yf we be deed with Christ we beleve that we shall live with him:
8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,
9 remembringe that Christ once raysed from deeth dyeth no more. Deeth hath no moare power over him.
9 knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
10 For as touchynge that he dyed he dyed concernynge synne once. And as touchinge that he liveth he liveth vnto God.
10 For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
11 Lykewyse ymagen ye also that ye are deed concernynge synne: but are alive vnto God thorow Iesus Christ oure Lorde.
11 Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
12 Let not synne raygne therfore in youre mortall bodyes that ye shuld thervnto obey in the lustes of it.
12 Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
13 Nether geve ye youre members as instrumentes of vnrightewesnes vnto synne: but geve youre selves vnto God as they that are alive from deeth. And geve youre membres as iustrumetes of rightewesnes vnto God.
13 Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
14 Let not synne have power over you. For ye are not vnder the lawe but vnder grace.
14 For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
15 What then? Shall we synne because we are not vnder the lawe: but vnder grace? God forbyd.
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
16 Remember ye not how that to whom soever ye comit youre selves as servautes to obey his servauntes ye are to whom ye obey: whether it be of synne vnto deeth or of obedience vnto rightewesnes?
16 Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 God be thanked that though ye were once the servauntes of synne ye have yet obeyed with herte vnto the forme of doctryne wher vnto ye were delyvered.
17 But thanks be to God that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.
18 Ye are then made fre from synne and are be come the servauntes of rightewesnes.
18 Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
19 I will speake grossly because of the infirmitie of youre flesshe. As ye have geve youre membres servauntes to vnclennes and to iniquitie from iniquitie vnto iniquitie: even so nowe geve youre membres servantes vnto rightewesnes that ye maye be sanctified.
19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.
20 For when ye were the servauntes of synne ye were not vnder rightewesnes.
20 For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
21 What frute had ye then in tho thinges wher of ye are now ashamed. For the ende of tho thynges is deeth.
21 What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
22 But now are ye delivered from synne and made the servauntes of God and have youre frute that ye shuld be sanctifyed and the ende everlastinge lyfe.
22 But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.
23 For the rewarde of synne is deeth: but eternall lyfe is the gyfte of God thorow Iesus Christ oure Lorde.
23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
What I had before occasion to remark, that I mention here too, that he continually digresseth into exhortation, without making any twofold division as he does in the other Epistles, and setting apart the former portion for doctrines, and the latter for the care of moral instruction.

… up into heaven, as he himself [Paul] says: "But at the same time, [it, is] Christ [that] died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God." And again, "Knowing that Christ, rising from the dead, dieth no more:" for, as himself foreseeing, through the Spirit, the subdivisions of evil teachers [with regard to …

Our body, too, as a sacrifice when we chasten it by temperance, if we do so as we ought, for God's sake, that we may not yield our members instruments of unrighteousness unto sin, but instruments of righteousness unto God. Exhorting to this sacrifice, the apostle says, "I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercy …

Hear, for instance, how of those passions Paul is ashamed, even after his deliverance from them, saying, "For what fruit had ye then in those things, whereof ye are now ashamed?" But virtue, even after his labor, he affirms to be light, calling the laboriousness of our affliction momentary and "light," and rejoicing in his sufferings, and glorying in his …
