Romans 6:14-16
Contemporary English Version
14 Don't let sin keep ruling your lives. You are ruled by God's undeserved grace and not by the Law.
Slaves Who Do What Pleases God
15 What does all this mean? Does it mean we are free to sin, because we are ruled by God's gift of undeserved grace and not by the Law? Certainly not! 16 Don't you know that you are slaves of anyone you obey? You can be slaves of sin and die, or you can be obedient slaves of God and be acceptable to him.

Romans 6:14-16
New International Version
14 For sin shall no longer be your master,(A) because you are not under the law,(B) but under grace.(C)
Slaves to Righteousness
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace?(D) By no means! 16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey(E)—whether you are slaves to sin,(F) which leads to death,(G) or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?
