¹⁷ “^(A)You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; ^(B)you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male slave, or his female slave, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

^7 (A)What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? ^(B)[a]Far from it! On the contrary, ^(C)I would not have come to know sin except ^[b]through the Law; for I would not have known about ^[c]coveting if the Law had not said, “^(D)You shall not ^[d]covet.”

⁹ For this, “^(A)You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “^(B)You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
