    5For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, which were by the law, worked in our members to bear fruit to death.

    6But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

    7What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not. Indeed, I would not have known sin except through the law: for I would not have known lust unless the law had said, 'You shall not covet.'

    8But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, worked in me all kinds of covetousness. For without the law, sin was dead.

    9For I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

    10And the commandment, which was intended for life, I found to be leading to death.

    11For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

    12Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

    13Was then that which is good made death unto me? Certainly not. But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good; that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.

    14For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.

    15For what I do, I do not understand: for what I want to do, that I do not do; but what I hate, that I do.

    16If then I do what I do not want to do, I agree with the law that it is good.

    1There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

    2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

    3For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, to condemn sin in the flesh.

    4That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

    5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh; but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
