Romans 7:11-13

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹¹ for sin, ^(A)taking an opportunity ^(B)through the commandment, ^(C)deceived me and through it killed me. ^12 (D)So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.

¹³ Therefore did that which is good become a cause of death for me? ^(E)May it never be! Rather it was sin, in order that it might be shown to be sin by effecting my death through that which is good, so that through the commandment sin would become utterly sinful.
