Romans 7:9 in context

  1. 7What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Howbeit, I had not known sin, except through the law: for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet:
  2. 8but sin, finding occasion, wrought in me through the commandment all manner of coveting: for apart from the law sin is dead.
  3. 9And I was alive apart from the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died;
  4. 10and the commandment, which was unto life, this I found to be unto death:
  5. 11for sin, finding occasion, through the commandment beguiled me, and through it slew me.
