For whenever the Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature the things of the law, these, [although they] do not have the law, are a law to themselves,

What then shall we say? [Is] the law sin? May it never be! But I would not have known sin except through the law, for I would not have known covetousness if the law had not said, "Do not covet."

but I observe another law in my members, at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that exists in my members.

For it is not the hearers of the law [who are] righteous in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be declared righteous.

Who boast in the law, by the transgression of the law you dishonor God!

For circumcision is of value if you do the law, but if you should be a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

For the law produces wrath, but where [there] is no law, neither [is there] transgression.

For until the law, sin was in the world, but sin is not charged to one's account [when there] is no law.

Or do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law is master of a person for as long a time [as] he lives?

For the married woman is bound by law to [her] husband while he lives, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law of the husband.

But now we have been released from the law, [because we] have died [to that] by which we were bound, so that we may serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter [of the law].

Thanks [be] to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself with my mind am enslaved to the law of God, but with my flesh [I am enslaved] to the law of sin.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.

But Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, did not attain to the law.
