Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
γὰρ
for
For indicates that what follows is the reason why Christ “no longer dies,” as stated in the previous verse. Use the most natural way in your language for indicating a reason, as in the UST.
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
ὃ
what
Here, that which refers to Christ’s death and life. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “the death which”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ ἀπέθανεν
¬the ˱to˲_sin died_off
Here, to sin implies that Christ died for the sake of freeing humanity from being “enslaved to sin.” It does not mean that Jesus himself was ever controlled by sin before he died. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternative translation: “he died for the sake of removing sin’s control over people” or “he died to stop sin from controlling people”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
ὃ δὲ ζῇ
what what but ˱he˲_/is/_living
Here, what he lives refers to Christ’s life after God raised him from the dead. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “But the life which”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ζῇ τῷ Θεῷ
˱he˲_/is/_living (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὃ γὰρ ἀπέθανεν τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ ἀπέθανεν ἐφάπαξ ὃ δὲ ζῇ ζῇ τῷ Θεῷ)
Here, to God implies that Christ now lives for the sake of glorifying God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternative translation: “he lives for the sake of glorifying God”
6:10 he died once to break the power of sin: Because we died with Jesus (6:4-5), we have also died to sin (6:2). Jesus was never under sin’s power in the way that we are, because he had no sin nature from Adam and he never succumbed to temptation (2 Cor 5:21; Heb 4:15). However, when he became human, he entered the arena where sin holds sway, and he was truly vulnerable to sin.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
