Is theG3588 lawG3551 sinG266? GodG3004 forbid. Howbeit, IG1487 had notG3756 knownG1097 sinG266, exceptG1487 throughG1223 theG3588 lawG3551: forG1063 IG1487 had notG3756 knownG1097 covetingG1939, exceptG1487 theG3588 lawG3551 had saidG3004, Thou shalt notG3756 covetG1937: 8butG1161 sinG266, finding occasionG874, wrought inG1722 meG1473 throughG1223 theG3956 commandmentG1785 allG3956 manner ofG1223 covetingG1939: forG1063 apartG5565 fromG5565 theG3956 lawG3551 sinG266 is deadG3498. 9AndG1161 IG1473 was aliveG2198 apartG5565 fromG2064 theG3588 lawG3551 onceG4218: butG1161 whenG1161 theG3588 commandmentG1785 cameG2064, sinG266 revived, andG1161 IG1473 died; 10andG2532 theG3588 commandmentG1785, whichG3588 was unto lifeG2222, thisG3778 IG1473 foundG2147 toG1519 beG2532 unto deathG2288: 11forG1063 sinG266, finding occasionG874, throughG1223 theG3588 commandmentG1785 beguiled meG1473, andG2532 throughG1223 itG846 slew meG1473. 12SoG2532 thatG5620 theG3588 lawG3551 is holyG40, andG2532 theG3588 commandmentG1785 holyG40, andG2532 righteousG1342, andG2532 goodG18. 13DidG1096 thenG3767 thatG2443 whichG3588 is goodG18 becomeG1096 deathG2288 unto meG1473? God forbid. ButG235 sinG266, thatG2443 itG1223 mightG1473 beG1096 shewn toG2443 beG1096 sinG266, byG1223 working deathG2288 toG2443 meG1473 throughG1223 thatG2443 whichG3588 is goodG18;—thatG2443 throughG1223 theG3588 commandmentG1785 sinG266 mightG1473 becomeG1096 exceeding sinfulG268. 14ForG1063 weG3754 knowG1492 thatG3754 theG3588 lawG3551 isG1510 spiritualG4152: butG1161 IG1473 amG1510 carnal, soldG4097 underG5259 sinG266. 15ForG1063 thatG3739 whichG3739 IG3739 doG4160 IG3739 knowG1097 notG3756: forG1063 notG3756 whatG3739 IG3739 wouldG2309, thatG3739 doG4160 IG3739 practise; butG235 whatG3739 IG3739 hateG3404, thatG3739 IG3739 doG4160. 16ButG1161 ifG1487 whatG3739 IG3739 wouldG2309 notG3756, thatG3754 IG3739 doG4160, IG3739 consent unto theG3588 lawG3551 thatG3754 itG4160 is goodG2570. 17SoG1161 nowG1161 itG846 is noG3765 moreG3765 IG1473 thatG846 do itG846, butG1161 sinG266 whichG3588 dwelleth inG1722 meG1473. 18ForG1063 IG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 inG1722 meG1473, thatG3754 isG1510, inG1722 myG1722 fleshG4561, dwelleth noG3756 goodG18 thingG18: forG1063 toG2309 willG1510 isG1510 presentG3873 withG1722 meG1473, butG1161 toG2309 doG1492 thatG3754 whichG3748 isG1510 goodG18 isG1510 notG3756. 19ForG1063 theG4160 goodG18 whichG3739 IG3739 wouldG2309 IG3739 doG4160 notG3756: butG235 theG4160 evilG2556 whichG3739 IG3739 wouldG2309 notG3756, thatG3739 IG3739 practise. 20ButG1161 ifG1487 whatG3739 IG1473 wouldG846 notG3756, thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160, itG846 is noG3756 moreG3765 IG1473 thatG3739 doG4160 itG846, butG1161 sinG266 whichG3739 dwelleth inG1722 meG1473. 21IG1473 findG2147 thenG686 theG3588 lawG3551, thatG3754, toG2309 meG1473 whoG3588 wouldG2309 doG4160 goodG2570, evilG2556 is presentG3873. 22ForG1063 IG2316 delight inG2596 theG3588 lawG3551 ofG2316 GodG2316 afterG2596 theG3588 inward manG444: 23butG1161 IG1473 seeG991 aG1510 differentG2087 lawG3551 inG1722 myG1722 membersG3196, warring againstG1722 theG3588 lawG3551 ofG3551 myG1722 mindG3563, andG2532 bringing meG1473 intoG1722 captivity underG1722 theG3588 lawG3551 ofG3551 sinG266 whichG3588 isG1510 inG1722 myG1722 membersG3196. 24O wretchedG5005 manG444 thatG3778 IG1473 amG1473! whoG3588 shallG444 deliverG4506 meG1473 outG1537 ofG1537 theG3588 bodyG4983 ofG1537 thisG3778 deathG2288? 25IG1473 thankG5485 GodG2316 throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG2316 LordG2962.
