THE PROBLEM OF SIN IN US

14 For we know that the law is spiritual,z but I am of the flesh,E soldaa as a slave under sin.ab 15 For I do not understand what I am doing,ac because I do not practice what I want to do,ad but I do what I hate. 16 Now if I do what I do not want to do, I agree with the law that it is good. 17 So now I am no longer the one doing it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh.ae For the desire to do what is good is with me, but there is no ability to do it. 19 For I do not do the good that I want to do, but I practice the evil that I do not want to do. 20 Now if I do what I do not want, I am no longer the one that does it, but it is the sin that lives in me. 21 So I discover this law:G,af When I want to do what is good,H evil is present with me.
