The Key Word — παρίστημι, paristēmigenerated
The verb παρίστημι means to present or yield. It is in the active imperative form, indicating a command to actively offer oneself. This word carries the idea of standing beside or supporting, suggesting that believers should willingly place themselves in service to God.
In this context, Paul urges believers to consciously choose to offer their bodies as instruments of righteousness, emphasizing the active role they play in their spiritual lives. This contrasts with passively allowing sin to dominate.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The Berean Standard Bible translates the verse with present, which aligns with several other translations like the ASV and KJV. These versions emphasize the act of yielding oneself to God.
However, the BSB and MSB use wickedness instead of unrighteousness (as seen in the ASV and KJV), highlighting a difference in nuance regarding moral failure.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in the verse is παριστάνετε, do yield, which governs the structure. It is followed by two clauses that describe how believers should present themselves: first, to God, and second, as instruments of righteousness.
The verse is structured with contrasting phrases, where the first half focuses on yielding to sin and the second half emphasizes presenting oneself to God, illustrating the choice believers face.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
παρίστημι does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint, but its concept of presenting or offering is reflected in various contexts, such as offerings to God.
The term ὅπλον appears in the Septuagint, often in military contexts, indicating tools or instruments, which parallels its use in Romans to describe how believers can choose to use their bodies.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Romans 6:13 teaches that we should not give our bodies to sin, but instead dedicate ourselves to God. We have been brought from death to life, and our bodies should be used to do what is right.

The Greek word μηδέ (i.e., *mēde*) is a negative particle that functions primarily as a conjunction meaning 'but not' or 'nor.' It can also serve as an adverb, emphasizing negation with meanings like 'not even.' The word is often used in contexts of continuing a negation or prohibition, appearing frequently in the New Testament, where it connects clauses or reinforces a negative statement.
μηδέ, (μή, 4. v., and δέ), [fr. Hom. down], a negative disjunctive conjunction; [cf. W. § 55, 6; B. § 149, 13]; 1. used in continuing a negation or prohibition, but not, and not, neither; preceded by yn, — either so that the two negatives have one verb in common: preceded by μή with a participle, Mt. xxii. 29; Mk. xii. 24; by μή w. a pres. subjune., 1 Co. v. 8 [here Lmre. pres. indic.]; 1 Jn. iii. 18; by μή ν΄. impv., Mt. vi. 25; Lk. x. 4; xii. 22; xiv.12; 1Jn.ii.15; by py w. an aor. subj. 2 pers. plur., Mt. x. 9 sq.; by εἰς τὸ μή, 2 Th. ii. 2 LT Tr WH; —or so that μηδέ has its own verb: preceded by ὃς ἐὰν (ἄν) μή, Mt. x. 14; Mk. vi. 11; by ἵνα μή, ὅπ. ἵν. 15; by ὅπως μή, Lk. xvi. 26; w. a ptep. after μή w.a ptep., Lk. xii.47; 2 Co. iv. 2; w. an impv. after μή w. impv., Jn. xiv. 27; Ro. vi. 12 sq.; Heb. xii. 5; μηδενὶ ἐπιτίθει, foll. by μηδέ w. impy. 1 Tim. v. 22; τ΄. 2 pers. of the…

παρίστημι is a verb meaning to stand beside or to present. It can refer to placing something before someone, providing assistance, or being present, as seen in various New Testament verses like Acts 9:41 and Romans 6:13. The word is built from the roots meaning 'beside' and 'to stand.' It has a range of uses, from offering support to presenting ideas or arguments.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word μέλος (melos) means 'member' or 'limb' of the body, appearing in various New Testament contexts, such as 1 Corinthians and Romans. It can also metaphorically refer to members of the Christian community, emphasizing their unity in Christ. The word has roots in classical literature, where it can denote parts of the body or even musical elements, though the New Testament primarily uses it in the context of physical and spiritual membership.

The Greek word ὅπλον (i.e., *hoplon*) means a tool or implement, often referring to arms or weapons, particularly in the plural form. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as in Romans 6:13, where it contrasts instruments of unrighteousness with those of righteousness. The term is also used metaphorically, as in Romans 13:12, to denote instruments suited for light.
ὅπλον, -ου, τό,
[in LXX for מָגֵן, צִנָּה, etc.;]
a tool, implement, instrument: ὅπλα ἀδικίας (opp. to ὅ. δικαιοσύνης), Ro 6:13.

ὅπλον [allied to ἕπω, Lat. sequor, socius, ete.; Curtius § 621], -ov, τό, as in class. Grk. fr. Hom. down, any tool or implement for preparing a thing, (like the Lat. arma) ; hence 1. plur. arms used in warfare, weapons: Jn. xviii. 3; 2 Co. x.4; metaph. τῆς δικαιοσύνης, which ἡ Sux. furnishes, 2 Co. vi. 7; τοῦ φωτός, adapted to the light, such as light demands, Ro. xiii. 12 [here L mrg. ἔργα]. 2. an instrument: ὅπλα ἀδικίας, for committing unrighteousness, opp. to ὅπλα δικαιοσύνης, for practising righteousness, Ro. vi. 13.
ὅπλον. For ὅπλα in the ordinary sense of ‘‘weapons”’ see P Tebt I. 48*8(c. B.c. 113) ἐπελθὼν ἐπὶ τὴν ἅλω Λύκος σὺν ἄλλοις ἐν ὅπλοις, ““Τγοῖ5 proceeded to the threshing-floor with other persons armed” (Edd.). Cf. PSI II. τ6813 (8.6, 118) ἐπεληλυθέναι τινὰς ἐν ὅπλοις ἐπὶ τὸ σημαινόμενον χῶμα. In a list of artificers, P Tebt II. 2785 (early i/a.b.), we find ὁπλοποίς (1.--οιός), ‘‘armourer.”’

ἀδικία (adikia) refers to injustice or unrighteousness, derived from the word for 'unjust.' It encompasses moral wrongfulness and can denote both the quality of being unjust and the acts that stem from it. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Luke 18:6 and Romans 1:18. The term is also associated with deceitfulness and wrongdoing.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word ἁμαρτία (i.e., *hamartia*) primarily means 'sin' or 'failure to hit the mark.' It encompasses ethical wrongdoing and is used in the New Testament to describe both individual acts of sin and the overarching principle of sin as a dominating force in human life. Various lexicons note its use in contexts such as guilt and the nature of sin, with references in Romans and John highlighting its significance in Christian theology.
παράβασις, παράπτωμα, ἀγνόημα, ἥττημα. A MOURNFULLY numerous group of words, and one which it would be only too easy to make larger still. Nor is it hard to see why. For sin, which we may define in the 240 SYNONYMS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. ϑιυχνι. language of Augustine, as ‘ factum vel dictuin yel concuvitum aliquid contra eternam legem’ (Con. Faust. xxii. 27; cf. the Stoic definition, ἁμάρτημα, νόμου ἀπαγόρευμα, Plutarch, De Rep. Stoic. 11); or again, ‘ voluntas admittendi vel retinendi quod justitia vetat, et unde liberum est abstinere’ (Con. Jul. i. 47), may be regarded under an infinite number of aspects, and in all languages has been so regarded; and as the diagnosis of it belongs most of all to the Scriptures, nowhere else are we likely to find it contemplated on so many sides, set forth under such various images. It may be regarded as the missing of a mark or aim; it is then ἁμαρτία…

Sin
Is “any want of conformity unto or transgression of the law of God” (1 John 3:4; Rom. 4:15), in the inward state and habit of the soul, as well as in the outward conduct of the life, whether by omission or commission (Rom. 6:12-17; 7:5-24). It is “not a mere violation of the law of our constitution, nor of the system of things, but an offence against a personal lawgiver and moral governor who vindicates his law with penalties. The soul that sins is always conscious that his sin is (1) intrinsically vile and polluting, and (2) that it justly deserves punishment, and calls down the righteous wrath of God. Hence sin carries with it two inalienable characters, (1) ill-desert, guilt (reatus); and (2) pollution (macula).”, Hodge’s…
a city of Egypt, mentioned only by Ezekiel. (Ezekiel 30:15,16) The name is Hebrew, or at least Semitic, perhaps signifying clay . It is identified in the Vulgate with Pelusium, "the clayey or muddy" town. Its antiquity may perhaps be inferred from the mention of "the wilderness of Sin" in the journeys of the Israelites. (Exodus 16:1; Numbers 33:11) Ezekiel speaks of Sin as "Sin the strongholds of Egypt." (Ezekiel 30:15) This place was held by Egypt from that time until the period of the Romans. Herodotus relates that Sennacherib advanced against Pelusium, and that near Pelusium Cambyses defeated Psammenitus. In like manner the decisive battle in which Ochus defeated the…
1. Any thought, word, desire, action, or omission of action, contrary to the law of God, or defective when compared with it.
The origin of sin is a subject which baffles all investigation; and our inquiries are much better directed when we seek through Christ a release from its penalty and power, for ourselves and the world. Its entrance into the world, and infection of the whole human race, its nature, forms, and effects, and its fatal possession of every unregenerate soul, are fully described in the Bible, Ge 6:5 Ps 51:5 Mt 15:19 Ro 5:12 Jas 1:14,15.

The Greek word ἀλλά (alla) is an adversative particle, meaning 'but' or 'otherwise.' It is derived from the neuter plural of ἄλλος and is used to introduce opposition or contrast in sentences. In the New Testament, it often appears in contexts that involve negation or exceptions, such as in Matthew 5:15 and John 16:2. The lexicons note its stronger adversative force compared to δέ.

παρίστημι is a verb meaning to stand beside or to present. It can refer to placing something before someone, providing assistance, or being present, as seen in various New Testament verses like Acts 9:41 and Romans 6:13. The word is built from the roots meaning 'beside' and 'to stand.' It has a range of uses, from offering support to presenting ideas or arguments.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

θεός (theos) means 'God' or 'a god' and is used in both singular and plural forms. It refers to the supreme deity in monotheistic contexts, as well as to lesser deities in polytheistic settings. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in verses like Matthew 27:46 and Acts 19:37. Some lexicons note its use as a title for rulers or magistrates, reflecting its broader application in ancient texts.

God
(A.S. and Dutch God; Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering (1) of the Hebrew ’El, from a word meaning to be strong; (2) of ’Eloah_, plural _’Elohim. The singular form, Eloah, is used only in poetry. The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by “LORD,” printed in small capitals. The existence of God is taken for granted in the Bible. There is nowhere any argument to prove it. He who disbelieves this truth is spoken of as one devoid of understanding (Ps. 14:1).
The arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of the being of God are:
(1.) The a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded by reason.
(good). Throughout the Hebrew Scriptures two chief names are used for the one true divine Being--ELOHIM, commonly translated God in our version, and JEHOVAH, translated Lord . Elohim is the plural of Eloah (in Arabic Allah); it is often used in the short form EL (a word signifying strength , as in EL-SHADDAI, God Almighty, the name by which God was specially known to the patriarchs. (Genesis 17:1; 28:3; Exodus 6:3) The etymology is uncertain, but it is generally agreed that the primary idea is that of strength, power of effect , and that it properly describes God in that character in which he is exhibited to all men in his works, as the creator, sustainer and supreme governor of the world. The plural form of Elohim has given rise to much discussion. The fanciful idea that it…
This name, the derivation of which is uncertain, we give to that eternal, infinite, perfect, and incomprehensible Being, the Creator of all things, who preserves and governs all by his almighty power and wisdom, and is the only proper object of worship. The proper Hebrew name for God is JEHOVAH, which signifies He is. But the Jews, from a feeling of reverence, avoid pronouncing this name, substituting for it, wherever it occurs in the sacred test, the word ADONAI, Lord; except in the expression, ADONAI JEHOVAH, Lord Jehovah, for which they put, ADONAI ELOHIM, Lord God. This usage, which is not without an element of superstition, is very ancient, dating its origin some centuries before Christ; but there is no good ground for assuming its existence in the days of the inspired Old Testament writers. The proper word for God is ELOHIM, which is plural in its form, being thus used to signify…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word μέλος (melos) means 'member' or 'limb' of the body, appearing in various New Testament contexts, such as 1 Corinthians and Romans. It can also metaphorically refer to members of the Christian community, emphasizing their unity in Christ. The word has roots in classical literature, where it can denote parts of the body or even musical elements, though the New Testament primarily uses it in the context of physical and spiritual membership.

a member, limb of the body: I Co 12:14, 19, 26, Eph 4:16 (WH, mg.), Ja 3:5; pl. (as always in cl.), τὰ μ.: Mt 5:29, 30, Ro 6:13, 19 7:5, 23 12:4, I Co 12:12 ff. Col 3:5, Ja 3:6 4:1. Metaph., πόρνης, I Co 6:15; of Christians, μ. ἀλλήλων, Ro 12:5, Eph 4:25; Χριστοῦ, I Co 6:15; σώματος Χριστοῦ,

The Greek word ὅπλον (i.e., *hoplon*) means a tool or implement, often referring to arms or weapons, particularly in the plural form. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as in Romans 6:13, where it contrasts instruments of unrighteousness with those of righteousness. The term is also used metaphorically, as in Romans 13:12, to denote instruments suited for light.
ὅπλον, -ου, τό,
[in LXX for מָגֵן, צִנָּה, etc.;]
a tool, implement, instrument: ὅπλα ἀδικίας (opp. to ὅ. δικαιοσύνης), Ro 6:13.
Freq., in pl., arms, weapons: Jo 18:3, II Co 10:4; metaph., τ. φωτός, Ro 13:12; τ. δικαιοσύνης, II Co 6:7.†
ὅπλον [allied to ἕπω, Lat. sequor, socius, ete.; Curtius § 621], -ov, τό, as in class. Grk. fr. Hom. down, any tool or implement for preparing a thing, (like the Lat. arma) ; hence 1. plur. arms used in warfare, weapons: Jn. xviii. 3; 2 Co. x.4; metaph. τῆς δικαιοσύνης, which ἡ Sux. furnishes, 2 Co. vi. 7; τοῦ φωτός, adapted to the light, such as light demands, Ro. xiii. 12 [here L mrg. ἔργα]. 2. an instrument: ὅπλα ἀδικίας, for committing unrighteousness, opp. to ὅπλα δικαιοσύνης, for practising righteousness, Ro. vi. 13.
ὅπλον. For ὅπλα in the ordinary sense of ‘‘weapons”’ see P Tebt I. 48*8(c. B.c. 113) ἐπελθὼν ἐπὶ τὴν ἅλω Λύκος σὺν ἄλλοις ἐν ὅπλοις, ““Τγοῖ5 proceeded to the threshing-floor with other persons armed” (Edd.). Cf. PSI II. τ6813 (8.6, 118) ἐπεληλυθέναι τινὰς ἐν ὅπλοις ἐπὶ τὸ σημαινόμενον χῶμα. In a list of artificers, P Tebt II. 2785 (early i/a.b.), we find ὁπλοποίς (1.--οιός), ‘‘armourer.”’

δικαιοσύνη (dikaiosunē) means righteousness or justice, derived from the word for just, δίκαιος. It encompasses conformity to divine will and the state of being acceptable to God. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, including teachings on living righteously and the concept of divine righteousness. Notably, it appears in verses like Matthew 5:6 and Romans 1:17.

Rectitude, justice, holiness; an essential perfection of God’s character, Job 36:3; Isa 51:5-8; Joh 17:25; and of his administration, Ge 18:25; Ro 3:21,22; 10:3. It is the wonder of grace that as the righteous guardian of the law, he can acquit the unrighteous. "The righteousness of Christ" includes his spotless holiness, his perfect obedience the law demands; and "the righteousness of faith" is that imputed to the sinner who believes in Christ. With reference to personal character, righteousness is used both for uprightness between man and man, and for true religion,

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

θεός (theos) means 'God' or 'a god' and is used in both singular and plural forms. It refers to the supreme deity in monotheistic contexts, as well as to lesser deities in polytheistic settings. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in verses like Matthew 27:46 and Acts 19:37. Some lexicons note its use as a title for rulers or magistrates, reflecting its broader application in ancient texts.

God
(A.S. and Dutch God; Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering (1) of the Hebrew ’El, from a word meaning to be strong; (2) of ’Eloah_, plural _’Elohim. The singular form, Eloah, is used only in poetry. The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by “LORD,” printed in small capitals. The existence of God is taken for granted in the Bible. There is nowhere any argument to prove it. He who disbelieves this truth is spoken of as one devoid of understanding (Ps. 14:1).
The arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of the being of God are:
(1.) The a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded by reason.
(good). Throughout the Hebrew Scriptures two chief names are used for the one true divine Being--ELOHIM, commonly translated God in our version, and JEHOVAH, translated Lord . Elohim is the plural of Eloah (in Arabic Allah); it is often used in the short form EL (a word signifying strength , as in EL-SHADDAI, God Almighty, the name by which God was specially known to the patriarchs. (Genesis 17:1; 28:3; Exodus 6:3) The etymology is uncertain, but it is generally agreed that the primary idea is that of strength, power of effect , and that it properly describes God in that character in which he is exhibited to all men in his works, as the creator, sustainer and supreme governor of the world. The plural form of Elohim has given rise to much discussion. The fanciful idea that it…
This name, the derivation of which is uncertain, we give to that eternal, infinite, perfect, and incomprehensible Being, the Creator of all things, who preserves and governs all by his almighty power and wisdom, and is the only proper object of worship. The proper Hebrew name for God is JEHOVAH, which signifies He is. But the Jews, from a feeling of reverence, avoid pronouncing this name, substituting for it, wherever it occurs in the sacred test, the word ADONAI, Lord; except in the expression, ADONAI JEHOVAH, Lord Jehovah, for which they put, ADONAI ELOHIM, Lord God. This usage, which is not without an element of superstition, is very ancient, dating its origin some centuries before Christ; but there is no good ground for assuming its existence in the days of the inspired Old Testament writers. The proper word for God is ELOHIM, which is plural in its form, being thus used to signify…

Counted over the 1,637 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
