Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ I was living once, apart from law. But when the commandment came, sin began to live and I died, ¹⁰ and the commandment which meant life was found to mean death. ¹¹ For sin, taking occasion through the commandment, deceived me and by it killed me. ¹² So the Law is holy and the commandment is holy and just and good. ¹³ Did then what is good become death to me? Never. But sin, that it might appear sin, worked death in me through the good, in order that it might become beyond measure sinful.
