45:007:002 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.
45:007:003 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.
45:007:004 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.
45:007:005 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.
45:007:006 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.
45:007:007 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.
45:007:008 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment,
wrought in me all
manner
of concupiscence. For without the law sin was
dead.
45:007:009 For I was alive without the law once:
but when the commandment
came,
sin revived, and I died.
45:007:010 And the commandment, which was ordained
to life, I found to be
unto
death.
45:007:011 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment,
deceived me, and
by
it slew me.
45:007:012 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment
holy, and just,
and
good.
45:007:013 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.
45:007:014 For we know that the law is spiritual:
but I am carnal, sold
under
sin.
45:007:015 For that which I do I allow not: for
what I would, that do I
not;
but what I hate, that do I.
45:007:016 If then I do that which I would not, I
consent unto the law
that
it is good.
45:007:017 Now then it is no more I that do it, but
sin that dwelleth in
me.
45:007:018 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.
45:007:019 For the good that I would I do not:
but the evil which I would
not,
that I do.
