16 Y si lo que no quiero hacer, eso hago, estoy de acuerdo con la ley, reconociendo que es buena.

Romanos 7:16 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 7:16

If then I do that which I would not
This is a corollary, or an inference from what he had related of his own experience; that since what he did, though it was contrary to the law of God, yet was what he did not will nor allow of, but hated, it must be a clear point, that he

consented to the law, that it was good;
lovely and amiable; that it forbad those things which were hateful, and commanded those things which were desirable to a good man; and so is acknowledged to be a very beautiful rule of obedience, walk, and conversation.

Romanos 7:16 In-Context

14 Porque sabemos que la ley es espiritual, pero yo soy carnal, vendido a la esclavitud del pecado.
15 Porque lo que hago, no lo entiendo; porque no practico lo que quiero hacer, sino que lo que aborrezco, eso hago.
16 Y si lo que no quiero hacer, eso hago, estoy de acuerdo con la ley, reconociendo que es buena.
17 Así que ya no soy yo el que lo hace, sino el pecado que habita en mí.
18 Porque yo sé que en mí, es decir, en mi carne, no habita nada bueno; porque el querer está presente en mí, pero el hacer el bien, no.
