Romans 7:14-24
14For we know that the Law is 1spiritual, but I am 2of flesh, 3sold 45into bondage to sin. 15For what I am doing, 6I do not understand; for I am not practicing 7what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. 16But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with 8the Law, confessing that the Law is good. 17So now, 9no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. 18For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my 10flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. 19For 11the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. 20But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, 12I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.
21I find then 13the 14principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. 22For I joyfully concur with the law of God 15in 16the inner man, 23but I see 17a different law in 18the members of my body, waging war against the 19law of my mind and making me a prisoner 20of 21the law of sin which is in my members. 24Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from 2223the body of this 24death?
