Romans 7:17-23

17SoG1161 nowG3570, 1noG3765 longerG3765 am I the one doingG2716 it, but sinG266 which dwellsG1774 in me. 18For I knowG3609 that nothingG3756 goodG18 dwellsG3611 in me, that is, in my 2fleshG4561; for the willingG2309 is presentG3873 in me, but the doingG2716 of the goodG2570 is not. 19For 3the goodG18 that I wantG2309, I do not doG4160, but I practiceG4238 the veryG3778 evilG2556 that I do not wantG2309. 20But ifG1487 I am doingG4160 the veryG3778 thingG3778 I do not wantG2309, 4I am noG3765 longerG3765 the one doingG2716 it, but sinG266 which dwellsG3611 in me.

21I findG2147 thenG686 5the 6principleG3551 that evilG2556 is presentG3873 in me, the one who wantsG2309 to doG4160 goodG2570. 22For I joyfullyG4913 concurG4913 with the lawG3551 of GodG2316 7in 8the innerG2080 manG444, 23but I seeG991 9a differentG2087 lawG3551 in 10the membersG3196 of my body, wagingG497 warG497 againstG497 the 11lawG3551 of my mindG3563 and makingG163 me a prisonerG163 12of 13the lawG3551 of sinG266 which is in my membersG3196.
