Romans 7:9 in Context — Romans 7

7 ¿Qué pues diremos? ¿La ley es pecado? En ninguna manera. Empero yo no conocí el pecado sino por la ley: porque tampoco conociera la concupiscencia, si la ley no dijera: No codiciarás.

8 Mas el pecado, tomando ocasión, obró en mí por el mandamiento toda concupiscencia: porque sin la ley el pecado [está] muerto.

9 Así que, yo sin la ley vivía por algún tiempo: mas venido el mandamiento, el pecado revivió, y yo morí.

10 Y hallé que el mandamiento, [intimado] para vida, [para mí] era mortal:

11 Porque el pecado, tomando ocasión, me engañó por el mandamiento, y por él me mató.
