So now it is no longer I that do it, but sin that dwells in me.
For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwells no good thing, for the will to do what is right is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.
Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who does it, but sin that lives in me.
but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
For if there is a willing mind first, the gift is accepted according to what a man possesses and not according to what he does not possess.
