    5 For when we were in ye flesh, the affections of sinnes, which were by the Law, had force in our members, to bring foorth fruit vnto death.

    6 But now we are deliuered from the Lawe, he being dead in whom we were holden, that we should serue in newnesse of Spirite, and not in the oldnesse of the letter.

    7 What shall we say then? Is the Lawe sinne? God forbid. Nay, I knewe not sinne, but by the Lawe: for I had not knowen lust, except the Lawe had sayd, Thou shalt not lust.

    8 But sinne tooke an occasion by ye commandement, and wrought in me all maner of concupiscence: for without the Lawe sinne is dead.

    9 For I once was aliue, wtout the Law: but when the commandement came, sinne reuiued,

    10 But I died: and the same commandement which was ordeined vnto life, was found to be vnto me vnto death.

    11 For sinne tooke occasion by the commandement, and deceiued me, and thereby slewe me.

    12 Wherefore the Lawe is holy, and that commandement is holy, and iust, and good.

    13 Was that then which is good, made death vnto me? God forbid: but sinne, that it might appeare sinne, wrought death in me by that which is good, that sinne might be out of measure sinfull by the commandement.

    14 For we knowe that the Law is spirituall, but I am carnall, solde vnder sinne.

    15 For I alow not that which I do: for what I would, that do I not: but what I hate, that do I.

    16 If I doe then that which I woulde not, I consent to the Lawe, that it is good.

    17 Nowe then, it is no more I, that doe it, but sinne that dwelleth in me.

    18 For I know, that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to wil is preset with me: but I find no meanes to perform that which is good.

    19 For I doe not the good thing, which I would, but the euil, which I would not, that do I.

    20 Nowe if I do that I would not, it is no more I that doe it, but the sinne that dwelleth in me.

    21 I finde then that when I would doe good, I am thus yoked, that euill is present with me.

    3 For (that that was impossible to ye Lawe, in as much as it was weake, because of ye flesh) God sending his owne Sonne, in ye similitude of sinful flesh, & for sinne, condened sinne in the flesh,

    4 That that righteousnes of the Law might be fulfilled in vs, which walke not after ye flesh, but after the Spirit.
