Romains 7:1-7

Ostervald (French) OST

1 Frères, ne savez-vous pas, (car je parle à des personnes qui connaissent la loi, ) que la loi n'a de pouvoir sur l'homme que pendant qu'il est en vie?

2 En effet, la femme qui est mariée, est liée par la loi à son mari, tant qu'il est vivant; mais si le mari meurt, elle est dégagée de la loi du mari.

3 Si donc, durant la vie de son mari, elle épouse un autre homme, elle sera appelée adultère; mais si son mari meurt, elle est affranchie de la loi, de sorte qu'elle n'est point adultère, si elle épouse un autre homme.

4 Ainsi donc, vous aussi, mes frères, vous êtes morts à la loi, par le corps de Christ, pour être à un autre, savoir, à celui qui est ressuscité des morts, afin que nous portions des fruits pour Dieu.

5 Car lorsque nous étions dans la chair, les passions des péchés, excitées par la loi, agissaient dans nos membres, de manière à produire des fruits pour la mort.

6 Mais maintenant que nous sommes délivrés de la loi, étant morts à celle sous laquelle nous étions retenus, nous servons Dieu dans un esprit nouveau, et non selon la lettre, qui a vieilli.

7 Que dirons-nous donc? La loi est-elle la cause du péché? Nullement! Au contraire, je n'ai connu le péché que par la loi; car je n'eusse point connu la convoitise, si la loi n'eût dit: Tu ne convoiteras point.

New International Version NIV

1 Do you not know, brothers and sisters—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over someone only as long as that person lives?

2 For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law that binds her to him.

3 So then, if she has sexual relations with another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is released from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.

4 So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God.

5 For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death.

6 But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sinful? Certainly not! Nevertheless, I would not have known what sin was had it not been for the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.”
