Romans 7:15-25 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

¹⁵ For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. ¹⁶ But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good. ¹⁷ So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. ¹⁸ For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. ¹⁹ For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. ²⁰ But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.

²¹ I find then the ^[a]principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. ²² For I joyfully concur with the law of God ^[b]in the inner man, ²³ but I see a different law in ^[c]the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner ^[d]of the law of sin which is in my members. ²⁴ Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from ^[e]the body of this death? ²⁵ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin.
