But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that wherein we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.

But now we are free from the law, having been made dead to that which had power over us; so that we are servants in the new way of the spirit, not in the old way of the letter.

τωρα ομως απηλλαχθημεν απο του νομου, αποθανοντος εκεινου, υπο του οποιου εκρατουμεθα, δια να δουλευωμεν κατα το νεον πνευμα και ουχι κατα το παλαιον γραμμα.

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.
