Other Translations - Romans 6:1-6:
What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so
that grace may increase? 2 By no means! We died to
sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don't you
know that all of us who were baptized into Christ
Jesus were baptized into his death? We were
therefore buried with him through baptism into death
in order that, just as Christ was raised from the
dead through the glory of the Father, we too may
live a new life. If we have been united with him
like this in his death, we will certainly also be
united with him in his resurrection. For we know
that our old self was crucified with him so that the
body of sin might be done away with, that we should
no longer be slaves to sin-- (NIV)
 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in
sin that grace may abound? 2 Certainly not! How
shall we who died to sin live any longer in it? Or
do you not know that as many of us as were baptized
into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism
into death, that just as Christ was raised from the
dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also
should walk in newness of life. For if we have been
united together in the likeness of His death,
certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His
resurrection, knowing this, that our old man was
crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be
done away with, that we should no longer be slaves
of sin. (NKJ)
 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin,
that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. We who died to
sin, how shall we any longer live therein? Or are ye
ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ
Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried
therefore with him through baptism unto death: that
like as Christ was raised from the dead through the
glory of the Father, so we also might walk in
newness of life. For if we have become united with
(him) in the likeness of his death, we shall be also
(in the likeness) of his resurrection; knowing this,
that our old man was crucified with (him), that the
body of sin might be done away, that so we should no
longer be in bondage to sin; (ASV)
 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin,
that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we,
that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know
ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into
Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore
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. For if we have been planted
together in the likeness of his death, we shall be
also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing
this, that our old man is crucified with him, that
the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth
we should not serve sin. (KJV)
* baptized is from the Greek word "baptizo"
meaning to dip, submerge or plunge beneath (to
bury).
