ગુજરાતીરોમનોને પત્ર ૭:૧૯
કેમ કે જે સારું કરવાની હું ઇચ્છા રાખું છું તે કરતો નથી; પણ જે દુષ્ટતા હું ઇચ્છતો નથી તે કરું છું.
हिन्दीरोमियों ७:१९
क्योंकि जिस अच्छे काम की मैं इच्छा करता हूँ, वह तो नहीं करता, परन्तु जिस बुराई की इच्छा नहीं करता, वही किया करता हूँ।

In context

17So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.

18For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.

19For the good which I desire, I don’t do; but the evil which I don’t desire, that I practice.

20But if what I don’t desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.

21I find then the law that, while I desire to do good, evil is present.
