Romans 7:12-14
GOD’S WORD Translation
12 So the laws in Moses’ Teachings are holy, and the commandment is holy, right, and good. 13 Now, did something good cause my death? That’s unthinkable! Rather, my death was caused by sin so that sin would be recognized for what it is. Through a commandment sin became more sinful than ever.

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)
