Romans 7:21-25
Legacy Standard Bible
21 I find then (A)the [a]principle that in me evil is present—in me who wants to do good. 22 For I joyfully concur with the law of God [b]in (B)the inner man, 23 but I see (C)a different law in my members, waging war against the (D)law of my mind and making me a captive [c]to (E)the law of sin which is in my members. 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from [d](F)the body of this (G)death? 25 [e](H)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 (I)the law of sin.

Romans 7:21-25
Lexham English Bible
21 Consequently, I find the principle with me, the one who wants to do good, that evil is present with me.[a] 22 For I joyfully agree with the law of God in my inner person, 23 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. 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be[b] 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.
