Thou camest down also upon mount Si´nai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.
If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
