New Testament

Romans 7:8-12 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

8. But sin, finding an opportunity in the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetousness. Apart from the law sin is dead.

9. I once lived outside the law, but when the commandment came, sin became alive;

10. then I died, and the commandment that was for life turned out to be death for me.

11. For sin, seizing an opportunity in the commandment, deceived me and through it put me to death.

12. So then the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
