Romans 7:20
Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
KJV
εἰ δὲ ὃ οὐ θέλω ἐγὼ τοῦτο ποιῶ, οὐκέτι ἐγὼ κατεργάζομαι αὐτὸ ἀλλὰ ἡ οἰκοῦσα ἐν ἐμοὶ ἁμαρτία.
Greek NT
Si autem quod nolo, illud facio : jam non ego operor illud, sed quod habitat in me, peccatum.
Vulgate
But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
ASV
Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me.
