Romans 7:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you also were (A)put to death (B)in regard to the Law (C)through the body of Christ, so that you might belong 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)brought to light by the Law, were at work (F)in [a]the parts of our body 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 bound, so that we serve in (I)newness of (J)the [b]Spirit and not in oldness of the letter.

Romans 7:4-6
New King James Version
4 Therefore, my brethren, you also have become (A)dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another—to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should (B)bear fruit to God. 5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law (C)were at work in our members (D)to bear fruit to death. 6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve (E)in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
