Romans 7:15 in Context — Romans 7

13 Ce qui est bon a-t-il donc été pour moi une cause de mort? Loin de là! Mais c’est le péché, afin qu’il se manifestât comme péché en me donnant la mort par ce qui est bon, et que, par le commandement, il devînt condamnable au plus haut point.

14 Nous savons, en effet, que la loi est spirituelle; mais moi, je suis charnel, vendu au péché.

15 Car je ne sais pas ce que je fais: je ne fais point ce que je veux, et je fais ce que je hais.

16 Or, si je fais ce que je ne veux pas, je reconnais par là que la loi est bonne.

17 Et maintenant ce n’est plus moi qui le fais, mais c’est le péché qui habite en moi.
