- 7:24 Wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death? 10
- 7:18 For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me, but to do that which is good [is] not. 7
- 7:19 For the good which I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I practise. 7
- 7:23 but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. 5
- 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Howbeit, I had not known sin, except through the law: for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet: 3
- 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 3
- 7:15 For that which I do I know not: for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do. 3
- 7:16 But if what I would not, that I do, I consent unto the law that it is good. 3
- 7:17 So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me. 3
- 7:20 But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me. 3
- 7:21 I find then the law, that, to me who would do good, evil is present. 3
- 7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 3
- 7:13 Did then that which is good become death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, by working death to me through that which is good;— that through the commandment sin might become exceeding sinful. 2
- 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I of myself with the mind, indeed, serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. 2
- 7:1 Or are ye ignorant, brethren ( for I speak to men who know the law), that the law hath dominion over a man for so long time as he liveth? 1
- 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ; that ye should be joined to another, [even] to him who was raised from the dead, that we might bring forth fruit unto God. 1
- 7:9 And I was alive apart from the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died; 1
- 7:11 for sin, finding occasion, through the commandment beguiled me, and through it slew me. 1
- 7:12 So that the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good. 1
