Romans 7:11-14

English Standard Version

¹¹ For sin, ^(A)seizing an opportunity through the commandment, ^(B)deceived me and through it killed me. ¹² So ^(C)the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.

¹³ Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, producing death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become sinful beyond measure. ¹⁴ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, ^(D)sold under sin.
