The War Within

15

For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will: but the evil which I hate, that I do.

16

If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good.

17

Now then it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me.

18

For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will is present with me: but to accomplish that which is good, I find not.

19

For the good which I will, I do not: but the evil which I will not, that I do.

20

Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me.

21

I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me.

22

For I am delighted with the law of God, according to the inward man:

23

But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind and captivating me in the law of sin that is in my members.

24

Unhappy man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

25

The grace of God, by Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore, I myself, with the mind serve the law of God: but with the flesh, the law of sin.
