King James Version

22

For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

23

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.

24

O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

25

I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
