The selected passage is highlighted. Context is a study aid.

6:1WHAT shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

6:2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

6:3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

6:4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

6:5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

6:6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

6:7For he that is dead is freed from sin.

6:8Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:

6:9Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

Selected passage

6:10For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

6:11Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

6:12Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

6:13Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

6:14For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
