King James Version
Or
don't
you
know, brothers
(for I speak to men
who
know the law )
, that the law has
dominion over a man for
as long as he lives
?
Know ye
not
, brethren,
(for I speak to them
that
know the law, )
how
that the law hath
dominion over a man as long as he liveth
?
For the woman that
has
a
husband is bound by law to the
husband while
he lives,
but if the husband dies
, she is discharged
from the law of the
husband.
For the woman which
hath
an
husband is bound by the
law to her
husband so
long
as
he liveth;
but if the husband be
dead
, she is loosed
from the law of her
husband.
So then if, while the
husband lives
, she is
joined
to another man, she would
be called an adulteress .
But if the
husband dies
, she is free from the
law ,
so that she is no adulteress, though she is
joined
to another man.
So then if, while her
husband liveth
, she be
married
to another man, she shall
be called an adulteress :
but if her
husband be
dead
, she is free from that
law ;
so that she is no adulteress, though she be
married
to another man.
Therefore
, my brothers
, you
also were
made
dead to the law through
the body of Christ ,
that you
would
be joined
to another, to him who was
raised from the dead, that we might
bring forth fruit to
God.
Wherefore
, my brethren
, ye
also are
become
dead to the law by
the body of Christ ;
that ye
should
be married
to another, even
to him who is
raised from the dead, that we should
bring forth fruit unto
God.
For when we were in the flesh, the sinful
passions
which were through
the law, worked
in our members to bring forth fruit to
death.
For when we were in the flesh, the motions
of
sins,
which were by
the law, did
work
in our members to bring forth fruit unto
death.
But now we have
been
discharged
from the law, having
died
to
that in
which
we were held; so
that we serve in newness of the
spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
But now we are
delivered
from the law, that being
dead
wherein
we were held; that we should
serve in newness of spirit, and not in the
oldness of the letter.
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May
it
never
be!
However
, I wouldn't
have
known sin, except
through
the law .
For I wouldn't
have
known coveting
, unless
the law had said, "You
shall
not covet. "
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God
forbid.
Nay
, I had
not
known sin, but
by
the law :
for I had
not
known lust
, except
the law had said, Thou
shalt
not covet.
But sin, finding
occasion through
the commandment, produced
in me all kinds
of coveting
. For apart
from
the law ,
sin is
dead.
But sin, taking
occasion by
the commandment, wrought
in me all manner
of concupiscence
. For without
the law sin was
dead.
I was alive apart
from
the law once ,
but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
For
I was alive without
the law once :
but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
The commandment, which was for
life, this
I found to be for
death ;
And
the commandment, which was ordained
to
life, I found to be unto
death .
for sin, finding
occasion through
the commandment, deceived me, and through
it killed
me.
For sin, taking
occasion by
the commandment, deceived me, and by
it slew
me.
Therefore
the law indeed
is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous
, and good.
Wherefore
the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just
, and good.
Did
then that which is good become
death to
me? May
it
never
be!
But sin, that it might be
shown
to
be
sin, by
working death to
me through
that which is good; that through
the commandment sin
might become exceeding sinful.
Was
then that which is good made
death unto
me? God
forbid.
But sin, that it might appear
sin, working death in
me by
that which is good; that sin
by
the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
For we know that the law is spiritual ,
but I am fleshly
, sold under sin.
For we know that the law is spiritual :
but I am carnal
, sold under sin.
For I don't
know
what
I am
doing.
For I
don't
practice
what I desire
to
do; but what I hate, that I
do.
For that
which
I do
I allow
not:
for what I would,
that
do I
not
; but what I hate, that do I
.
But
if what
I don't
desire,
that I do
, I consent to
the law that it is good.
If then
I do
that which
I would
not
, I consent unto
the law that it is good.
So
now it is no more I that do it, but sin which
dwells
in me.
Now then
it is no more I that do it, but sin that
dwelleth
in me.
For I know that in me ,
that is, in my flesh, dwells
no good thing .
For desire
is present with me ,
but I
don't
find
it
doing
that which is good.
For I know that in me (
that is, in my flesh, )
dwelleth
no good thing :
for to
will
is present with me ;
but how
to
perform
that which is good I
find
not
.
For the good which
I desire,
I don't
do ;
but the evil which I don't
desire
, that I practice
.
For the good that
I would
I do not:
but the evil which I would
not
, that I do
.
But
if what
I don't
desire,
that I do
, it is no more I that do it, but sin which
dwells
in me.
Now
if I do
that I would
not
, it is no more I that do it, but sin that
dwelleth
in me.
I find then the
law, that, to
me,
while
I desire
to
do good, evil is present.
I find then a
law, that, when
I would
do good, evil is present with
me
.
For I delight in God's
law after the inward man ,
For I delight in the
law of
God
after the inward man :
but I see a
different
law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under
the law of sin which is in my members.
But I see another
law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to
the law of sin which is in my members.
What
a
wretched man I am! Who will
deliver me out
of
the body of this death?
O
wretched man that
I am! who shall
deliver me from
the body of this death?
I thank God through Jesus Christ ,
our Lord !
So then with the mind ,
I myself serve God's
law ,
but with the flesh ,
the sin's
law.
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord .
So then with the mind I myself serve the
law of
God;
but with the flesh the law of
sin
.
