²⁶ I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.

¹⁴ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.

¹⁵ For I don't know what I am doing. For I don't practice what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.

¹⁶ But if what I don't desire, that I do, I consent to the law that it is good.

¹⁷ So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.

¹⁸ For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don't find it doing that which is good.

¹⁹ For the good which I desire, I don't do; but the evil which I don't desire, that I practice.

²⁰ But if what I don't desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.

²¹ I find then the law, that, to me, while I desire to do good, evil is present.

²² For I delight in God's law after the inward man,

²³ but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.

²⁴ What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?

²⁵ I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord! So then with the mind, I myself serve God's law, but with the flesh, the sin's law.
