Romans 7:9 CPDV

⁷  What should we say next? Is the law sin? Let it not be so! But I do not know sin, except through the law. For example, I would not have known about coveting, unless the law said: 'You shall not covet.'

⁸  But sin, receiving an opportunity through the commandment, wrought in me all manner of coveting. For apart from the law, sin was dead.

⁹  Now I lived for some time apart from the law. But when the commandment had arrived, sin was revived,

¹⁰  and I died. And the commandment, which was unto life, was itself found to be unto death for me.

¹¹  For sin, receiving an opportunity through the commandment, seduced me, and, through the law, sin killed me.
