So, my brothers, you also were (A)made to die (B)to the Law (C)through the body of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. For while we were (D)in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were (E)aroused by the Law, were at work (F)in our members to bear fruit for death. But now we have been (G)released from the Law, having (H)died to that by which we were constrained, so that we serve in (I)newness of [a](J)the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter.
