Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.
