和合本聖經
這樣,我們可說甚麼呢?律法是罪嗎?斷乎不是!只是非因律法,我就不知何為罪。非律法說「不可起貪心」,我就不知何為貪心。 7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed I would not have known what sin was except through the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, 「Do not covet.」( \f27 7:7 Exodus 20:17; Deut. 5:210
