Romans 7:7-12 - Knowledge Of Sin Comes Through The Law

⁷ What, then, shall we say? Is the law sin? Far be it! On the contrary, I had not discovered, sin, save through law, for even, of coveting, I had not been aware if, the law, had not kept on saying - Thou shall not covet; ⁸ Howbeit sin taking, occasion - through the commandment, wrought out in me all manner of coveting; for, apart from law, sin is dead; - ⁹ And, I, was alive, apart from law, at one time, but, the commandment coming, sin sprang up to life, ¹⁰ Whereas, I, died, - and the commandment which was unto life was found by me to be, itself, unto death; ¹¹ For, sin, - taking occasion - through the commandment, completely deceived me and, through it, slew me: ¹² So that, the law, indeed, is holy, and the commandment, holy, and righteous and good.
