Romans 6:19 - Easy To Read Version

¹⁹ I explain this by using an example that people know. I explain it this way because it is hard for you to understand. In the past you offered the parts of your body to be slaves to sin and evil. You lived only for evil. In the same way now you must give yourselves to be slaves of goodness. Then you will live only for God.

¹⁹ (I’m speaking with ordinary metaphors because of your limitations.)

Now, you should present the parts of your body as slaves to righteousness, which makes your lives holy.
