God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? |
Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it? |
May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? |
|
By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? |
Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer? |
May such a thing never occur. How is it possible for us, such persons as we are, who have been separated once for all from the sinful nature, any longer to live in its grip? |
|
What a terrible thought! We, who have died to sin – how could we live in sin a moment longer? |
Not at all! Since we have ended our relation to sin (literally, died to sin), how can we live in it any longer? |
