Romans 7:21-8:6
Contemporary English Version
Romans 7:21-8:6
Contemporary English Version
21 The Law has shown me that something in me keeps me from doing what I know is right. 22 With my whole heart I agree with the Law of God. 23 But in every part of me I discover something fighting against my mind, and it makes me a prisoner of sin that controls everything I do. 24 What a miserable person I am. Who will rescue me from this body that is doomed to die? 25 Thank God! Jesus Christ will rescue me.
So with my mind I serve the Law of God, although my selfish desires make me serve the law of sin.
Living by the Power of God's Spirit
8 If you belong to Christ Jesus, you won't be punished. 2 The Holy Spirit will give you life that comes from Christ Jesus and will set you[a] free from sin and death. 3 The Law of Moses cannot do this, because our selfish desires make the Law weak. But God set you free when he sent his own Son to be like us sinners and to be a sacrifice for our sin. God used Christ's body to condemn sin. 4 He did this, so that we would do what the Law commands by obeying the Spirit instead of our own desires.
5 People who are ruled by their desires think only of themselves. Everyone who is ruled by the Holy Spirit thinks about spiritual things. 6 If our minds are ruled by our desires, we will die. But if our minds are ruled by the Spirit, we will have life and peace.

Romans 7:21-8:6
New International Version
Romans 7:21-8:6
New International Version
21 So I find this law at work:(A) Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22 For in my inner being(B) I delight in God’s law;(C) 23 but I see another law at work in me, waging war(D) against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin(E) at work within me. 24 What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death?(F) 25 Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!(G)
So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law,(H) but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin.(I)
Life Through the Spirit
8 Therefore, there is now no condemnation(J) for those who are in Christ Jesus,(K) 2 because through Christ Jesus(L) the law of the Spirit who gives life(M) has set you[b] free(N) from the law of sin(O) and death. 3 For what the law was powerless(P) to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[c](Q) God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh(R) to be a sin offering.[d](S) And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement(T) of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.(U)
5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires;(V) but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.(W) 6 The mind governed by the flesh is death,(X) but the mind governed by the Spirit is life(Y) and peace.
