Romans 7:4-6
Legacy Standard Bible
4 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. 5 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. 6 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.

Romans 7:4-6
Revised Standard Version
4 Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God. 5 While we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. 6 But now we are discharged from the law, dead to that which held us captive, so that we serve not under the old written code but in the new life of the Spirit.
