Romans 7:15-24

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁵ for that which I work, I do not acknowledge; for not what I will, this I practise, but what I hate, this I do.

¹⁶ And if what I do not will, this I do, I consent to the law that [it is] good,

¹⁷ and now it is no longer I that work it, but the sin dwelling in me,

¹⁸ for I have known that there doth not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, good: for to will is present with me, and to work that which is right I do not find,

¹⁹ for the good that I will, I do not; but the evil that I do not will, this I practise.

²⁰ And if what I do not will, this I do, it is no longer I that work it, but the sin that is dwelling in me.

²¹ I find, then, the law, that when I desire to do what is right, with me the evil is present,

²² for I delight in the law of God according to the inward man,

²³ and I behold another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of the sin that [is] in my members.

²⁴ A wretched man I [am]! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death?
