Romans 7:16-18
New Catholic Bible
16 Now if I do what I do not want, then I agree that the Law is good.[a] 17 This indicates that it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. 18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot do what is good.
