American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage.
For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only use not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another.
For when ye were {Greek: bondservants.}servants of sin, ye were free in regard of righteousness.
For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of {Many ancient authorities read our.}the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the last state is become worse with them than the first.
For what is there wherein ye were made inferior to the rest of the churches, except it be that I myself was not a burden to you? forgive me this wrong.
Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves as {Greek: bondservants.}servants unto obedience, his {Greek: bondservants.}servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
and being made free from sin, ye became {Greek: bondservants.}servants of righteousness.
that the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
