Romans 7:19 Context
17Now then, it is no more I that doe it: but sinne that dwelleth in me. 18For I know, that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwelleth no good thing. For to will is present with me: but how to performe that which is good, I find not. 19For the good that I would, I do not: but the euill which I would not, that I doe. 20Now if I doe that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sinne that dwelleth in me. 21I find then a Law, that when I would do good, euil is present with me.
