Romans 7:9-13

⁹I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.i

¹⁰The commandment which was for life, this I found to be for death;

¹¹for sin, finding occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.

¹²Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, righteous, and good.j

¹³Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.
