Romans 7:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 [a]For I once was alive, without the [b]law: but when the commandment [c]came, sin revived,
10 But I [d]died: and the same commandment which was ordained unto life, was found to be unto me unto death.
11 For sin took occasion by the commandment, and deceived me, and thereby slew me.

- Romans 7:9 He setteth himself before us for an example, in whom all men may behold, first what they are of nature before they earnestly think upon the law of God: to wit, blockish, and ready to sin and wickedness, without all true sense and feeling of sin, then what manner of persons they become, when their conscience is reproved by the testimony of the law, to wit, stubborn, and more inflamed with the desire of sin, than ever they were before.
- Romans 7:9 When I knew not the law, then me thought I lived in deed: for my conscience never troubled me, because it knew not my disease.
- Romans 7:9 When I began to understand the commandment.
- Romans 7:10 In sin, or by sin.

New International Version
9 Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died. 10 I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life(A) actually brought death. 11 For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment,(B) deceived me,(C) and through the commandment put me to death.
