11. for sin, getting a point of attack by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
12. So that the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
13. Did then that which is good become death to me? Far be the thought. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death to me by that which is good; in order that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
14. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am fleshly, sold under sin.
15. For that which I do, I do not own: for not what I will, this I do; but what I hate, this I practise.
16. But if what I do not will, this I practise, I consent to the law that it is right.
