Romans 6:16 ASV

¹⁴  For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.

¹⁵  What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.

¹⁶  Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves `as' servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

¹⁷  But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye were servants of sin, ye became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto ye were delivered;

¹⁸  and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.
