SCRIPTURE

"So that the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good." — Romans 7:12 (ASV)

Holy, and righteous, and good (αγια κα δικαια κα αγαθη). This is the conclusion (wherefore, ωστε) to the query in verse 7. The commandment is God's and so holy like Him, just in its requirements and designed for our good. The modern revolt against law needs these words.
