Romans 7:9-12

9And I was once alive apart from the law, but with the coming of the commandment sin became alive

10and I died. So I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life brought death!

11For sin, seizing the opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it I died.

12So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
