By Grace Through Faith

2 And ^(A)you He made alive, ^(B)who were dead in trespasses and sins,

^5 (A)even when we were dead in trespasses, ^(B)made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

¹⁴ Therefore He says:

¹³ And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses,

⁶ But she who lives in ^[a]pleasure is dead while she lives.
