drb - Romans:7:7-25

drb@Romans:7:7 @What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? God forbid. But I do not know sin, but by the law; for I had not known concupiscence, if the law did not say: Thou shalt not covet.

drb@Romans:7:8 @But sin taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.

drb@Romans:7:9 @And I lived some time without the law. But when the commandment came, sin revived,

drb@Romans:7:10 @And I died. And the commandment that was ordained to life, the same was found to be unto death to me.

drb@Romans:7:11 @For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, seduced me, and by it killed me.

drb@Romans:7:12 @Wherefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

drb@Romans:7:13 @Was that then which is good, made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me; that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure.

drb@Romans:7:14 @For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.

drb@Romans:7:15 @For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will; but the evil which I hate, that I do.

drb@Romans:7:16 @If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good

drb@Romans:7:17 @Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

drb@Romans:7:18 @For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will, is present with me; but to accomplish that which is good, I find not.

drb@Romans:7:19 @For the good which I will, I do not; but the evil which I will not, that I do.

drb@Romans:7:20 @Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

drb@Romans:7:21 @I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me.

drb@Romans:7:22 @For I am delighted with the law of God, according to the inward man:

drb@Romans:7:23 @But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind, and captivating me in the law of sin, that is in my members.

drb@Romans:7:24 @Unhappy man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

drb@Romans:7:25 @The grace of God, by Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore, I myself, with the mind serve the law of God; but with the flesh, the law of sin.
