Romans 7:9-11

Romans 7:9-11 AMP

I was once alive without [knowledge of] the Law; but when the commandment came [and I understood its meaning], sin became alive and I died [since the Law sentenced me to death]. [Ps 73:22] And the very commandment which was intended to bring life, actually proved to bring death for me. [Lev 18:5] For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, beguiled and completely deceived me, and using it as a weapon killed me [separating me from God].
