Romans 7:9-13
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 7
9
I was once alive apart from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin came to life, and I died;
10
and this commandment, which was to result in life, proved to result in death for me;
11
for sin, taking an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it, killed
me.
12
So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
13
Therefore did that which is good become
a cause of
death for me? Far from it! Rather
it was
sin, in order that it might be shown to be sin by bringing about my death through that which is good, so that through the commandment sin would become utterly sinful.
King James Version
Chapter 7
9
For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
10
And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
11
For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
12
Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
13
Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 7
9
Once I was alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life again
10
and I died. The commandment that was meant for life resulted in death for me.
11
For sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.
12
So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and just and good.
13
Therefore, did what is good become death to me? Absolutely not! On the contrary, sin, in order to be recognized as sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment, sin might become sinful beyond measure.
New Living Translation
Chapter 7
9
At one time I lived without understanding the law. But when I learned the command not to covet, for instance, the power of sin came to life,
10
and I died. So I discovered that the law’s commands, which were supposed to bring life, brought spiritual death instead.
11
Sin took advantage of those commands and deceived me; it used the commands to kill me.
12
But still, the law itself is holy, and its commands are holy and right and good.
13
But how can that be? Did the law, which is good, cause my death? Of course not! Sin used what was good to bring about my condemnation to death. So we can see how terrible sin really is. It uses God’s good commands for its own evil purposes.
English Standard Version
Chapter 7
9
I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin came alive and I died.
10
The very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me.
11
For sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it killed me.
12
So the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
13
Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, producing death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become sinful beyond measure.
New International Version
Chapter 7
9
Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
10
I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life actually brought death.
11
For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, deceived me, and through the commandment put me to death.
12
So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good.
13
Did that which is good, then, become death to me? By no means! Nevertheless, in order that sin might be recognized as sin, it used what is good to bring about my death, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
New King James Version
Chapter 7
9
I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.
10
And the commandment, which
was
to
bring
life, I found to
bring
death.
11
For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed
me.
12
Therefore the law
is
holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.
13
Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.
