20And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
22For in my inner being I delight in God’s law.
23But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.
— Romans 7:20-23
