For as many as have sinned without law shall perish also without law; and as many as have sinned under law shall be judged by law,

For when those of the nations, which have no law, practise by nature the things of the law, these, having no law, are a law to themselves;

What shall we say then? is the law sin? Far be the thought. But I had not known sin, unless by law: for I had not had conscience also of lust unless the law had said, Thou shalt not lust;

but I see another law in my members, warring in opposition to the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which exists in my members.
