Romans 7:4-6
Jubilee Bible 2000
4 Likewise ye also, my brethren, are become dead to the law in the body of the Christ that ye should belong to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
5 For while we were in the flesh, the affections of the sins which were by the law worked in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
6 But now we are free from the law of death in which we were held, that we might serve in newness of Spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

Romans 7:4-6
New International Version
4 So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law(A) through the body of Christ,(B) that you might belong to another,(C) to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. 5 For when we were in the realm of the flesh,[a](D) the sinful passions aroused by the law(E) were at work in us,(F) so that we bore fruit for death.(G) 6 But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law(H) so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.(I)
