rsv Romans:7:14-25
rsv@Romans:7:14 @ We know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.
rsv@Romans:7:15 @ I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate.
rsv@Romans:7:16 @ Now if I do what I do not want, I agree that the law is good.
rsv@Romans:7:17 @ So then it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.
rsv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot do it.
rsv@Romans:7:19 @ For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I do.
rsv@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.
rsv@Romans:7:21 @ So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand.
rsv@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God, in my inmost self,
rsv@Romans:7:23 @ but I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members.
rsv@Romans:7:24 @ Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?
rsv@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
