Romans 7:2-4

2For 1the marriedG5220 womanG1135 is boundG1210 by lawG3551 to her 2husbandG435 as long as he isG2198 aliveG2198; but ifG1437 her husbandG435 diesG599, she is releasedG2673 from the lawG3551 3concerning the husbandG435. 3SoG686 thenG3767, ifG1437 while her husbandG435 isG2198 aliveG2198 she 4givesG1096 herselfG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435, she will be calledG5537 an adulteressG3428; but ifG1437 her husbandG435 diesG599, she is freeG1658 from the lawG3551, so that she is not an adulteressG3428 if she 5givesG1096 herselfG1096 to anotherG2087 manG435.

4ThereforeG5620, my brothersG80 and sisters, you alsoG2532 were 6putG2289 toG2289 deathG2289 7in regard to the LawG3551 8throughG1223 the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547, soG1519 thatG1519 you might belongG1096 to anotherG2087, to Him who was raisedG1453 from the deadG3498, inG2443 orderG2443 thatG2443 we might bearG2592 fruitG2592 for GodG2316.
