Romans 5:13

ἄχρι γὰρ νόμου ἁμαρτία ἦν ἐν κόσμῳ· ἁμαρτία δὲ οὐκ ἐλλογεῖται, μὴ ὄντος νόμου.
achri gar nomoy amartia ēn en kosmō· amartia de oyk ellogeitai, mē ontos nomoy.
King James Version (KJV)

(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

Modern English

To be sure, sin was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not charged against anyone's account where there is no law.
