Romans 7:23 Douay-Rheims

But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind, and captivating me in the law of sin, that is in my members.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

Paul perceives imprisonment where righteousness has not been fulfilled; for when he is delighted with the law of God he is not a prisoner but a friend of the law and thus free, because he is a friend.
