⁷ For none of us to himself doth live, and none to himself doth die;

¹⁵ and for all he died, that those living, no more to themselves may live, but to him who died for them, and was raised again.

¹⁰ who did die for us, that whether we wake -- whether we sleep -- together with him we may live;

² no more in the desires of men, but in the will of God, to live the rest of the time in the flesh;

¹⁹ for I through law, did die, that to God I may live;

²⁰ with Christ I have been crucified, and live no more do I, and Christ doth live in me; and that which I now live in the flesh -- in the faith I live of the Son of God, who did love me and did give himself for me;

⁹ for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord.

¹⁹ Have ye not known that your body is a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own,

²⁰ for ye were bought with a price; glorify, then, God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

²⁰ according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, and in all freedom, as always, also now Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death,

²¹ for to me to live `is' Christ, and to die gain.

²² And if to live in the flesh `is' to me a fruit of work, then what shall I choose? I know not;

²³ for I am pressed by the two, having the desire to depart, and to be with Christ, for it is far better,

²⁴ and to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account,

¹⁴ who did give himself for us, that he might ransom us from all lawlessness, and might purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works;
