Romans 7:18-23

¹⁸For 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.

¹⁹For the good which I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I practise.

²⁰But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.

²¹I find then the law, that, to me who would do good, evil is present.

²²For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

²³but 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.
