Burdened by sin?

So,what Does Romans 6:23 Mean?
 
Romans 6:23 echoes Jesus’s conviction. The word translated “wages” often referred to the pay a soldier would receive, or to a worker’s paycheck more generally. In Romans, “sin” is said to “reign,” like a military general or a despotic boss. What is sin’s compensation package? Paul summarizes with one word: “death.”
