Nay [235], I had [1097] not [3756] known [1097] sin [266], but [1508] by [1223] the law [3551]: for [1063] [5037] I had [1492] not [3756] known [1492] lust [1939], except [1508] the law [3551] had said [3004], Thou shalt [1937] not [3756] covet [1937]. |

What then is to be said? is the law sin? in no way. But I would not have had knowledge of sin but for the law: for I would not have been conscious of desire if the law had not said, You may not have a desire for what is another's. |

| What [5101] shall we say [2046] then [3767]? Is the law [3551] sin [266]? God forbid [3361] [1096]. Nay [235], I had [1097] not [3756] known [1097] sin [266], but [1508] by [1223] the law [3551]: for [1063] [5037] I had [1492] not [3756] known [1492] lust [1939], except [1508] the law [3551] had said [3004], Thou shalt [1937] not [3756] covet [1937]. |
What then do we conclude? Is the Law identical with sin? Certainly not! Nevertheless, if it had not been for the Law, I should not have recognized sin or have known its meaning. [For instance] I would not have known about covetousness [would have had no consciousness of sin or sense of guilt] if the Law had not [repeatedly] said, You shall not covet and have an evil desire [for one thing and another]. See: Exod. 20:17; Deut. 5:21. |
