Romans 6:12-14 MKJV Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. (13) Do not yield your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but yield yourselves to God, as one alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. (14) For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under Law, but under grace.

Romans 6:12-14 GW Therefore, never let sin rule your physical body so that you obey its desires. (13) Never offer any part of your body to sin's power. No part of your body should ever be used to do any ungodly thing. Instead, offer yourselves to God as people who have come back from death and are now alive. Offer all the parts of your body to God. Use them to do everything that God approves of. (14) Certainly, sin shouldn't have power over you because you're not controlled by laws, but by God's favor.

Romans 6:12-14 GNB Sin must no longer rule in your mortal bodies, so that you obey the desires of your natural self. (13) Nor must you surrender any part of yourselves to sin to be used for wicked purposes. Instead, give yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life, and surrender your whole being to him to be used for righteous purposes. (14) Sin must not be your master; for you do not live under law but under God's grace.

Romans 6:12-14 CEV Don't let sin rule your body. After all, your body is bound to die, so don't obey its desires (13) or let any part of it become a slave of evil. Give yourselves to God, as people who have been raised from death to life. Make every part of your body a slave that pleases God. (14) Don't let sin keep ruling your lives. You are ruled by God's kindness and not by the Law.

Romans 6:12-14 ESV Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions. (13) Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness. (14) For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
