Romans 7:12-14
Easy-to-Read Version
12 Now the law is holy, and the command is holy and right and good. 13 Does this mean that something that is good brought death to me? No, it was sin that used the good command to bring me death. This shows how terrible sin really is. It can use a good command to produce a result that shows sin at its very worst.
The War Inside Us
14 We know that the law is spiritual, but I am not. I am so human. Sin rules me as if I were its slave.

Romans 7:12-14
New International Version
12 So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good.(A)
13 Did that which is good, then, become death to me? By no means! Nevertheless, in order that sin might be recognized as sin, it used what is good(B) to bring about my death,(C) so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
14 We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual,(D) sold(E) as a slave to sin.(F)
