Romans 7:16 in context

  1. 14For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
  2. 15For that which I do I know not: for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do.
  3. 16But if what I would not, that I do, I consent unto the law that it is good.
  4. 17So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
  5. 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.
