14. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15. For that which I do I know not: for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do.
16. But if what I would not, that I do, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17. So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
18. For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me, but to do that which is good is not.
19. For the good which I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I practise.
20. But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
21. I find then the law, that, to me who would do good, evil is present.
22. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23. but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
24. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death?
25. I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I myself with the mind serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
