Romans 8:2-18

²for the law of the Spirit of the life in Christ Jesus did set me free from the law of the sin and of the death;

³for what the law was not able to do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, His own Son having sent in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, did condemn the sin in the flesh,

⁴that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

⁵For those who are according to the flesh, the things of the flesh do mind; and those according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit;

⁶for the mind of the flesh is death, and the mind of the Spirit — life and peace;

⁷because the mind of the flesh is enmity to God, for to the law of God it doth not subject itself,

⁸for neither is it able; and those who are in the flesh are not able to please God.

⁹And ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God doth dwell in you; and if any one hath not the Spirit of Christ — this one is not His;

¹⁰and if Christ is in you, the body, indeed, is dead because of sin, and the Spirit is life because of righteousness,

¹¹and if the Spirit of Him who did raise up Jesus out of the dead doth dwell in you, He who did raise up the Christ out of the dead shall quicken also your dying bodies, through His Spirit dwelling in you.

¹²So, then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh;

¹³for if according to the flesh ye do live, ye are about to die; and if, by the Spirit, the deeds of the body ye put to death, ye shall live;

¹⁴for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God;

¹⁵for ye did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye did receive a spirit of adoption in which we cry, 'Abba — Father.'

¹⁶The Spirit himself doth testify with our spirit, that we are children of God;

¹⁷and if children, also heirs, heirs, indeed, of God, and heirs together of Christ — if, indeed, we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.

¹⁸For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory about to be revealed in us;
