What shall wee say then? is the law sinne? God forbid. Nay, I had not knowen sinne, but by the lawe: for I had not knowen lust, except the Law had said, Thou shalt not couet.

But sinne taking occasion by the commaundement, wrought in me all maner of concupiscence. For without the Law sinne was dead.

For I was aliue without the Law once, but when the commandement came, sinne reuiued, and I died.

And the commandement which was ordained to life, I found to be vnto death.

For sinne taking occasion by the commandement, deceiued me, and by it slew me.

Wherefore the Law is holy, and the Commandement holy, and iust, and good.
