Romans 7:5-11 For while we were in the flesh, the emotions of sin which are by the law, were active in our members, that we should bear fruits unto death.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ For while we were in the flesh, the emotions of sin which are by the law, were active in our members, that we should bear fruits unto death. ⁶ But now we are absolved from the law, and are dead to that which held us in its grasp: that we might henceforth serve in the newness of the spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. ⁷ What shall we say then? Is the law sin?, Far be it. For I had not learned sin, except by means of the law: for I had not known concupiscence, had not the law said, Thou shalt not covet: ⁸ and by this commandment, sin found occasion, and perfected in me all concupiscence: for without the law, sin was dead. ⁹ And I, without the law, was alive formerly; but when the commandment came, sin became alive, and I died; ¹⁰ and the commandment of life was found by me to be unto death. ¹¹ For sin, by the occasion which it found by means of the commandment, seduced me; and thereby slew me.
