But now being made free from sin and become servants to God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end life everlasting.

For the wages of sin is death. But the grace of God, life everlasting in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For the woman that hath an husband, whilst her husband liveth is bound to the law. But if her husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

Therefore, whilst her husband liveth, she shall be called an adulteress, if she be with another man: but if her husband be dead, she is delivered from the law of her husband: so that she is not an adulteress, if she be with another man.

But now we are loosed from the law of death wherein we were detained; so that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? God forbid! But I do not know sin, but by the law. For I had not known concupiscence, if the law did not say: Thou shalt not covet.

But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.

And I lived some time without the law. But when the commandment came, sin revived,

Was that then which is good made death unto me? God forbid! But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me: that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure.

For we know that the law is spiritual. But I am carnal, sold under sin.

For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will: but the evil which I hate, that I do.

Now then it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me.

For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will is present with me: but to accomplish that which is good, I find not.

For the good which I will, I do not: but the evil which I will not, that I do.

Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me.

But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind and captivating me in the law of sin that is in my members.

The grace of God, by Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore, I myself, with the mind serve the law of God: but with the flesh, the law of sin.

That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

For they that are according to the flesh mind the things that are of the flesh: but they that are according to the spirit mind the things that are of the spirit.

For the wisdom of the flesh is death: but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.
