Romans 7:4-11 Therefore, my brothers, you also were put to death to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another--to Him who was raised from the dead, so that we might bear fruit to God.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Therefore, my brothers, you also were put to death to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another--to Him who was raised from the dead, so that we might bear fruit to God. ⁵ For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions aroused through the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. ⁶ But now we were released from the law, having died in that to which we were held fast, so that we should serve as slaves in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter. ⁷ What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known lust unless the law had said, "You shall not covet." ⁸ But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of lust. For apart from the law sin was dead. ⁹ For I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived, but I died. ¹⁰ And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death. ¹¹ For sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, deceived me, and by it, killed me.
