Which
shew the
work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while
accusing or else
excusing one another;)

aroused by the law were at
work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.

captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.

stumbling stone,

works, but to the evil.
