Romans 7:7-11

⁷What then shall we say? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have been mindful of sin if not for the law. For I would not have been aware of coveting if the law had not said, “Do not covet.”

⁸But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.

⁹Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.

¹⁰So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.

¹¹For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
