Romans 8:2-4
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
2 For the law of the Spirit[a] of life in Christ Jesus has set you[b] free from the law of sin and of death. 3 For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do: by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and to deal with sin,[c] he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.[d]

2 because through Christ Jesus(A) the law of the Spirit who gives life(B) has set you[a] free(C) from the law of sin(D) and death. 3 For what the law was powerless(E) to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[b](F) God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh(G) to be a sin offering.[c](H) And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement(I) of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.(J)

Nueva Biblia Viva
2 porque el poder vivificador del Espíritu, poder que reciben a través de Jesucristo, los libera del poder del pecado y de la muerte.
3 La ley no pudo liberarnos porque nuestra naturaleza pecaminosa anuló su poder. Pero Dios envió a su propio Hijo con un cuerpo humano igual en todo al nuestro para entregarlo en sacrificio por nuestros pecados, y así destruyó el dominio del pecado sobre nosotros.
4 Por eso, si vivimos según el Espíritu Santo y negamos obediencia a nuestra vieja naturaleza pecaminosa, podemos obedecer las justas demandas de la ley de Dios.
