1 There is therefore ἄρα ara G686 now νῦν nun G3568 no condemnation κατάκριμα katakrima G2631 to them that are in Christ Χριστῷ Christō G5547 Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 . 2 For the law νόμος nomos G3551 of the Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 of life ζωῆς zōēs G2222 in Christ Χριστῷ Christō G5547 Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 made me free ἠλευθέρωσέν ēleutherōsen G1659 from the law νόμου nomou G3551 of sin ἁμαρτίας hamartias G266 and of death θανάτου. thanatou G2288 . 3 For what the law νόμου, nomou G3551 could not do , in that it was weak ἠσθένει ēsthenei G770 through the flesh σαρκός, sarkos G4561 , God θεὸς theos G2316 , sending G3992 his own ἑαυτοῦ he'autou G1438 Son υἱὸν huion G5207 in the likeness ὁμοιώματι homoiōmati G3667 of sinful flesh σαρκὸς sarkos G4561 and for sin G266 , condemned κατέκρινεν katekrinen G2632 sin G266 in the flesh σαρκί, sarki G4561 : 4 that the ordinance of the law νόμου nomou G3551 might be fulfilled in us , who walk περιπατοῦσιν peripatousin G4043 not after the flesh σάρκα sarka G4561 , but after the Spirit πνεῦμα. pneuma G4151 . 5 For they that are G1510 after the flesh σάρκα sarka G4561 mind φρονοῦσιν phronousin G5426 the things of the flesh σαρκὸς sarkos G4561 ; but they that are G1510 after the Spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 the things of the Spirit πνεύματος. pneumatos G4151 . 6 For the mind φρόνημα phronēma G5427 of the flesh σαρκὸς sarkos G4561 is death θάνατος, thanatos G2288 ; but the mind φρόνημα phronēma G5427 of the Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 is life ζωὴ zōē G2222 and peace εἰρήνη. eirēnē G1515 : 7 because the mind φρόνημα phronēma G5427 of the flesh σαρκὸς sarkos G4561 is enmity against God θεόν· theon G2316 ; for it is not subject ὑποτάσσεται, hupotassetai G5293 to the law νόμῳ nomō G3551 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , neither indeed G1063 can it be : 10 And if Christ Χριστὸς Christos G5547 is in you , the body σῶμα sōma G4983 is dead νεκρὸν nekron G3498 because of sin ἁμαρτίαν hamartian G266 ; but the spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 is life ζωὴ zōē G2222 because of righteousness δικαιοσύνην. dikaiosunēn G1343 . 11 But if the Spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 of him that raised G1453 up Jesus Ἰησοῦν Iēsoun G2424 from the dead νεκρῶν nekrōn G3498 dwelleth in you , he that raised G1453 up Christ Χριστὸν Christon G5547 Jesus G2424 from the dead νεκρῶν nekrōn G3498 shall give life ζῳοποιήσει zōopoiēsei G2227 also καὶ kai G2532 to your mortal θνητὰ thnēta G2349 bodies σώματα sōmata G4983 through his Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 that dwelleth in you . 13 for if ye live ζῆτε, zēte G2198 after the flesh σάρκα sarka G4561 , ye must die ἀποθνῄσκειν· apothnēskein G599 ; but if by the Spirit πνεύματι pneumati G4151 ye put θανατοῦτε, thanatoute G2289 to death G2289 the deeds πράξεις praxeis G4234 of the body σώματος sōmatos G4983 , ye shall live ζήσεσθε. zēsesthe G2198 . 15 For ye received G2983 not the spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 of bondage again πάλιν palin G3825 unto fear φόβον, phobon G5401 ; but ye received G2983 the spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 of adoption υἱοθεσίας huiothesias G5206 , whereby we cry κράζομεν· krazomen G2896 , Abba αββα abba G5 , Father πατήρ. patēr G3962 . 17 and if children G5043 , then heirs κληρονόμοι· klēronomoi G2818 ; heirs κληρονόμοι klēronomoi G2818 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , and joint-heirs with Christ Χριστοῦ· Christou G5547 ; if so ἵνα ina G2443 be that we suffer συμπάσχομεν sumpaschomen G4841 with him , that we may be also G2532 glorified with him . 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present νῦν nun G3568 time καιροῦ kairou G2540 are not worthy G514 to be compared with the glory δόξαν doxan G1391 which shall be revealed ἀποκαλυφθῆναι apokaluphthēnai G601 to us-ward. 19 For the earnest ἀποκαραδοκία apokaradokia G603 expectation G603 of the creation κτίσεως ktiseōs G2937 waiteth for the revealing of the sons υἱῶν huiōn G5207 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 . 20 For the creation κτίσις ktisis G2937 was subjected ὑπετάγη, hupetagē G5293 to vanity , not of its own will, but by reason of him who subjected ὑποτάξαντα, hupotaxanta G5293 it , in hope ἑλπίδι helpidi G1680 21 that the creation κτίσις ktisis G2937 itself also καὶ kai G2532 shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory δόξης doxēs G1391 of the children G5043 of God θεοῦ. theou G2316 . 22 For we know that the whole creation κτίσις ktisis G2937 groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now νῦν· nun G3568 . 23 And not only G3440 so , but ourselves also G2532 , who have the first-fruits of the Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 , even G2532 we ourselves groan στενάζομεν stenazomen G4727 within ourselves , waiting for our adoption υἱοθεσίαν huiothesian G5206 , to wit, the redemption ἀπολύτρωσιν apolutrōsin G629 of our body σώματος sōmatos G4983 . 25 But if we hope ἐλπίζομεν, elpizomen G1679 for that which we see βλέπομεν blepomen G991 not , then G1161 do we with patience wait for it . 26 And in like manner the Spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 also καὶ kai G2532 helpeth our infirmity G769 : for we know not how to pray προσευξώμεθα proseuxōmetha G4336 as we ought G1163 ; but the Spirit πνεῦμα pneuma G4151 himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered; 27 and he that searcheth the hearts καρδίας kardias G2588 knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit πνεύματος, pneumatos G4151 , because he maketh intercession for the saints ἁγίων.¶ hagiōn G40 according κατὰ kata G2596 to the will of God θεὸν theon G2316 . 28 And we know that to them that love G25 God θεὸν theon G2316 all things πάντα panta G3956 work G4903 together συνεργεῖ sunergei G4903 for good ἀγαθόν, agathon G18 , even to them that are G1510 called κλητοῖς klētois G2822 according κατὰ kata G2596 to his purpose πρόθεσιν prothesin G4286 . 29 For whom he foreknew , he also καὶ kai G2532 foreordained to be G1510 conformed to the image εἰκόνος eikonos G1504 of his Son υἱοῦ huiou G5207 , that he might be G1510 the firstborn πρωτότοκον prōtotokon G4416 among many πολλοῖς pollois G4183 brethren : 32 He that spared not his own ἰδίου idiou G2398 Son υἱοῦ huiou G5207 , but delivered G3860 him up for us all , how πῶς pōs G4459 shall he not also καὶ kai G2532 with him freely give us all things G3956 ? 33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of God’s elect ἐκλεκτῶν eklektōn G1588 ? It is God G2316 that justifieth; 35 Who shall separate χωρίσει chōrisei G5563 us from the love ἀγάπης agapēs G26 of Christ Χριστοῦ; Christou G5547 ? shall tribulation θλῖψις thlipsis G2347 , or anguish , or persecution διωγμὸς diōgmos G1375 , or famine λιμὸς limos G3042 , or nakedness γυμνότης gumnotēs G1132 , or peril G2794 , or sword μάχαιρα; machaira G3162 ? 36 Even as it is written G1125 , For thy sake ἕνεκεν heneken G1752 we are killed all the day ἡμέραν, hēmeran G2250 long ; We were accounted as sheep πρόβατα probata G4263 for the slaughter σφαγῆς. sphagēs G4967 . 37 Nay, in all these things τούτοις toutois G3778 we are more than conquerors through him that loved G25 us . 38 For I am persuaded G3982 , that neither death θάνατος thanatos G2288 , nor life ζωὴ zōē G2222 , nor angels ἄγγελοι angeloi G32 , nor principalities , nor things G3195 present ἐνεστῶτα enestōta G1764 , nor things G3195 to come μέλλοντα mellonta G3195 , nor powers δυνάμεις dunameis G1411 , 39 nor height , nor depth βάθος bathos G899 , nor any other ἑτέρα hetera G2087 creature , shall be able δυνήσεται dunēsetai G1410 to separate χωρίσαι chōrisai G5563 us from the love ἀγάπης agapēs G26 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , which is in Christ Χριστῷ Christō G5547 Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 our Lord κυρίῳ kuriō G2962 . ← Romans 7 Romans 9 → American Standard Version — 1901 — Public Domain
