Romans 7:13-25 - Internal Conflict With Sin

¹³ Did, then, that which is good, unto me become death? Far be it! But it was sin, that it might appear sin, through that which was good unto me working out death, in order that, exceeding sinful, might sin become through the commandment. ¹⁴ For we know that, the law, is spiritual, - I, however, am a creature of flesh, sold under sin; ¹⁵ For, that which I am working out, I do not approve, - for not, what I wish, the same I practise, but, what I hate, the same I do: ¹⁶ Now, if what I wish not the same I do, I consent unto the law that it is right. ¹⁷ Now, however, no longer am, I, working it out, but the, sin, that dwelleth in me: ¹⁸ I know, in fact, that there dwelleth not in me, that is, in my flesh, anything good; for, the wishing, lieth near me, but, the working out of what is right, not! ¹⁹ For not, the good that I wish, I do, but, the evil that I do not wish, the same I practise. ²⁰ Now, if what I wish not, the same, I do, no longer am, I, working it out, but the, sin, that dwelleth in me. ²¹ Hence, I find the law, to me who wish to be doing the right, that, unto me, the wrong lieth near: ²² I have, in fact, a sympathetic pleasure in the law of God; according to the inner man. ²³ But I behold a diverse law in my members, warring against the law of my mind and taking me captive in the law of sin which existeth in my members: - ²⁴ Wretched, man am, I! Who shall rescue me out of this body doomed to death? ²⁵ Butthanks be unto God! - Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Hence, then, - I myself, with the mind, indeed, am in servitude unto a law of God; but; with the flesh; unto a law of sin.
