Romans 7:19-24

Goodspeed(i) 19 I do not do the good things that I want to do; I do the wrong things that I do not want to do. 20 But if I do the things that I do not want to do, it is not I that am acting, it is sin, which has possession of me. 21 I find the law to be that I who want to do right am dogged by what is wrong. 22 My inner nature agrees with the divine law, 23 but all through my body I see another principle in conflict with the law of my reason, which makes me a prisoner to that law of sin that runs through my body. 24 What a wretched man I am! Who can save me from this doomed body?
