Romans 7

KING JAMES BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?	1 An ignoratis, fratres — scienti bus enim legem loquor — quia lex inhomine dominatur, quanto tempore vivit?
2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.	2 Nam quae sub viro est mulier, viventiviro alligata est lege; si autem mortuus fuerit vir, soluta est a lege viri.
3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.	3 Igitur, vivente viro, vocabitur adultera, si fuerit alterius viri; si autemmortuus fuerit vir, libera est a lege, ut non sit adultera, si fuerit alteriusviri.
4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.	4 Itaque, fratres mei, et vos mortificati estis legi per corpus Christi,ut sitis alterius, eius qui ex mortuis suscitatus est, ut fructificaremus Deo.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.	5 Cum enim essemus in carne, passiones peccatorum, quae per legem sunt,operabantur in membris nostris, ut fructificarent morti;
6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.	6 nunc autem solutisumus a lege, mortui ei, in qua detinebamur, ita ut serviamus in novitateSpiritus et non in vetustate litterae.
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.	7 Quid ergo dicemus? Lex peccatum est? Absit! Sed peccatum non cognovi, nisi perlegem; nam concupiscentiam nescirem, nisi lex diceret: “ Non concupisces ”.
8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.	8 Occasione autem accepta, peccatum per mandatum operatum est in me omnemconcupiscentiam; sine lege enim peccatum mortuum erat.
9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.	9 Ego autem vivebam sinelege aliquando; sed, cum venisset mandatum, peccatum revixit,
10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.	10 ego autemmortuus sum; et inventum est mihi mandatum, quod erat ad vitam, hoc esse admortem;
11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.	11 nam peccatum, occasione accepta, per mandatum seduxit me et per illudoccidit.
12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.	12 Itaque lex quidem sancta, et mandatum sanctum et iustum et bonum.
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.	13 Quod ergo bonum est, mihi factum est mors? Absit! Sed peccatum, ut appareatpeccatum, per bonum mihi operatum est mortem; ut fiat supra modum peccanspeccatum per mandatum.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.	14 Scimus enim quod lex spiritalis est; ego autem carnalis sum, venumdatus subpeccato.
15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.	15 Quod enim operor, non intellego; non enim, quod volo, hoc ago, sedquod odi, illud facio.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.	16 Si autem, quod nolo, illud facio, consentio legiquoniam bona.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.	17 Nunc autem iam non ego operor illud, sed, quod habitat in me,peccatum.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.	18 Scio enim quia non habitat in me, hoc est in carne mea, bonum; namvelle adiacet mihi, operari autem bonum, non!
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.	19 Non enim, quod volo bonum,facio, sed, quod nolo malum, hoc ago.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.	20 Si autem, quod nolo, illud facio, iamnon ego operor illud, sed, quod habitat in me, peccatum.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.	21 Invenio igitur hanclegem volenti mihi facere bonum, quoniam mihi malum adiacet.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:	22 Condelector enimlegi Dei secundum interiorem hominem;
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.	23 video autem aliam legem in membris meisrepugnantem legi mentis meae et captivantem me in lege peccati, quae est inmembris meis.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?	24 Infelix ego homo! Quis me liberabit de corpore mortis huius?
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.	25 Gratias autemDeo per Iesum Christum Dominum nostrum! Igitur ego ipse mente servio legi Dei,carne autem legi peccati.
