Romans 7:11-13

International Standard Version

¹¹ For sin, seizing the opportunity provided by the rule, deceived me and used it to kill me. ¹² So then, the Law^[a] itself is holy, and the rule is holy, just, and good.

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^[b] sinful than ever before.
