12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its ^qpassions. 13 Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but ^rpresent yourselves to God as those who have been brought ^sfrom death to life, and your members to God as instruments ^tfor righteousness. 14 For sin will have no ^udominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

Heirs with Christ

12 So then, brothers,¹ we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For ^xif you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you ^yput to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
