12So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
13Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
— Romans 7:12-13
