Romans 7 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

So ^G5620, my brothers ^G80, you also ^G2532 were made ^G2289 to ^G2289 die ^G2289 to the Law ^G3551 through ^G1223 the body ^G4983 of Christ ^G5547, so ^G1519 that you might be joined ^G1096 to another ^G2087, to Him who was raised ^G1453 from the dead ^G3498, in ^G2443 order ^G2443 that ^G2443 we might bear ^G2592 fruit ^G2592 for God ^G2316.

What ^G5101 shall we say ^G3004 then ^G3767? Is the Law ^G3551 sin ^G266? May it never ^G3361 be! Rather ^G235, I would not have come to know ^G1097 sin ^G266 except ^G1508 [fn]through ^G1223 the Law ^G3551. For I would not have known ^G6063 about ^G6063 [fn]coveting ^G1939 if ^G1487 the Law ^G3551 had not said ^G3004, “YOU SHALL NOT [fn]COVET ^G1937.”

Therefore ^G3767 did that which is good ^G18 become ^G1096 a cause of death ^G2288 for me? May it never ^G3361 be! Rather ^G235 it was sin ^G266, in ^G2443 order ^G2443 that ^G2443 it might be shown ^G5316 to be sin ^G266 by working ^G2716 out ^G2716 my death ^G2288 through ^G1223 that which is good ^G18, so ^G2443 that through ^G1223 the commandment ^G1785 sin ^G266 would [fn]become ^G1096 utterly ^G5236 sinful ^G266.

For we know ^G6063 that the Law ^G3551 is spiritual ^G4152, but I am ^G1510 fleshly ^G4560, having been sold ^G4097 [fn]into bondage under sin ^G266.

I find ^G2147 then ^G686 the [fn]principle ^G3551 that in ^G686 me evil ^G2556 is present ^G3873—in me who wants ^G2309 to do ^G4160 good ^G2570.
