Romans 7:10

10 and I died, and the very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me.

Romans 7:10 In-Context

8 But sin, seizing an opportunity in the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetousness. Apart from the law sin lies dead.
9 I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived
10 and I died, and the very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me.
11 For sin, seizing an opportunity in the commandment, deceived me and through it killed me.
12 So the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and just and good.
