The Conflict of Two Natures
13 Therefore did that which is good become a cause of death for me? (A)May it never be! Rather it was sin, in order that it might be shown to be sin by working out my death through that which is good, so that through the commandment sin would [a]become utterly sinful.
14 For we know that the Law is (B)spiritual, but I am (C)fleshly, (D)having been sold [b](E)into bondage under sin.

International Standard Version
The Problem of the Sin that Lives in Us
13 Now, did something good bring me death? Of course not! But in order that sin might be recognized as being sin, it used something good to cause my death, so that through the rule, sin might become more exposed as being[a] sinful than ever before. 14 For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am merely human,[b] sold as a slave to sin.[c]
