15. For what I am doing I do not understand, because what I want to do, this I do not practice, but what I hate, this I do.
16. But if what I do not want to do, this I do, I agree with the law that it is good.
17. But now I am no longer the one doing it, but sin that lives in me.
18. For I know that good does not live in me, that is, in my flesh. For the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.
