절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	An Example from Marriage My friends, you surely understand enough about law to know that laws only have power over people who are alive.	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?
2	For example, the Law says that a man's wife must remain his wife as long as he lives. But once her husband is dead, she is free	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.
3	to marry someone else. However, if she goes off with another man while her husband is still alive, she is said to be unfaithful.	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.
4	That is how it is with you, my friends. You are now part of the body of Christ and are dead to the power of the Law. You are free to belong to Christ, who was raised to life so we could serve 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.
5	When we thought only of ourselves, the Law made us have sinful desires. It made every part of our bodies into slaves who are doomed to die.	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.
6	But the Law no longer rules over us. We are like dead people, and it cannot have any power over us. Now we can serve God in a new way by obeying his Spirit, and not in the old way by obeying the written Law.	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.
7	The Battle with Sin Does this mean that the Law is sinful? Certainly not! But if it had not been for the Law, I would not have known what sin is really like. For example, I would not have known what it means to want something that belongs to someone else, unless the Law had told me not to do this.	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.
8	It was sin that used this command as a way of making me have all kinds of desires. But without 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.
9	Before I knew about the Law, I was alive. But as soon as I heard that command, sin came to life,	For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
10	and I died. The very command that was supposed to bring life to me, instead brought death.	And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
11	Sin used this command to trick me, and because of it I died.	For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
12	Still, the Law and its commands are holy and correct and good.	Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
13	Am I saying something good caused my death? Certainly not! It was sin that killed me by using something good. Now we can see how terrible and evil sin really is.	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.
14	We know that the Law is spiritual. But I am merely a human, and I have been sold as a slave to sin.	For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15	In fact, I don't understand why I act the way I do. I don't do what I know is right. I do the things I hate.	For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16	Although I don't do what I know is right, I agree that the Law is good.	If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17	So I am not the one doing these evil things. The sin that lives in me is what does them.	Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18	I know that my selfish desires won't let me do anything that is good. Even when I want to do right, I cannot.	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.
19	Instead of doing what I know is right, I do wrong.	For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20	And so, if I don't do what I know is right, I am no longer the one doing these evil things. The sin that lives in me is what does them.	Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21	The Law has shown me that something in me keeps me from doing what I know is right.	I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22	With my whole heart I agree with the Law of God.	For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23	But in every part of me I discover something fighting against my mind, and it makes me a prisoner of sin that controls everything I do.	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.
24	What a miserable person I am. Who will rescue me from this body that is doomed to die?	O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25	Thank God! Jesus Christ will rescue me. So with my mind I serve the Law of God, although my selfish desires make me serve the law of sin.	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.
