So ich aber das tue, was ich nicht will, so gebe ich zu, daß das Gesetz gut sei.
Y si lo que no quiero, esto hago, apruebo que la ley es buena.
Or, si je fais ce que je ne veux pas, je reconnais par là que la loi est bonne.
Ora, se ciò che io non voglio, quello pur fo, io acconsento alla legge ch’ella è buona.
E, se faço o que não quero, consinto com a lei, que é boa.
如果我所做的是我所不願意的,我得承認律法是善的。
