^{14 Ref} for we have known that the law is spiritual, and I am fleshly, sold by the sin;

^{15 Ref} for that which I work, I do not acknowledge; for not what I will, this I practise, but what I hate, this I do.

^{16 Ref} And if what I do not will, this I do, I consent to the law that `it is' good,

^{17 Ref} and now it is no longer I that work it, but the sin dwelling in me,

^{18 Ref} for I have known that there doth not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, good: for to will is present with me, and to work that which is right I do not find,

^{19 Ref} for the good that I will, I do not; but the evil that I do not will, this I practise.

^{20 Ref} And if what I do not will, this I do, it is no longer I that work it, but the sin that is dwelling in me.

^{21 Ref} I find, then, the law, that when I desire to do what is right, with me the evil is present,

^{22 Ref} for I delight in the law of God according to the inward man,

^{23 Ref} and I behold another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of the sin that `is' in my members.

^{24 Ref} A wretched man I `am'! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death?

^{25 Ref} I thank God -- through Jesus Christ our Lord; so then, I myself indeed with the mind do serve the law of God, and with the flesh, the law of sin.
