Romans 6:12

Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
Romans 6:12 · World English Bible

In context

10For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.

11Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

12Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

13Neither present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

14For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace.
