Romans 7:14-25

14For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.

15For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do.

16If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good.

17But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

18For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.

19For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice.

20Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

21I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good.

22For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man.

23But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

24O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

25I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.
