Romans 8:1-27
1There isthereforeG686 nowG3568 noG3762 condemnationG2631 to them who are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who walkG4043 notG3361 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 according toG2596 the SpiritG4151. 2ForG1063 the lawG3551 of the SpiritG4151 of lifeG2222 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 hath madeG1659 meG3165 freeG1659 fromG575 the lawG3551 of sinG266 andG2532 deathG2288. 3ForG1063 what the lawG3551 could not doG102, inG1722 thatG3739 it was weakG770 throughG1223 the fleshG4561, GodG2316 sendingG3992 his ownG1438 SonG5207 inG1722 the likenessG3667 of sinfulG266 fleshG4561, andG2532 forG4012 sinG266, condemnedG2632 sinG266 inG1722 the fleshG4561:1 4ThatG2443 the righteousnessG1345 of the lawG3551 may be fulfilledG4137 inG1722 usG2254, who walkG4043 notG3361 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 according toG2596 the SpiritG4151. 5ForG1063 they that areG5607 according toG2596 the fleshG4561 do mindG5426 the thingsG3588 of the fleshG4561; butG1161 they that are according toG2596 the SpiritG4151 the thingsG3588 of the SpiritG4151. 6ForG1063 to beG5427 carnallyG4561 mindedG5427 is deathG2288; butG1161 to beG5427 spirituallyG4151 mindedG5427 is lifeG2222 andG2532 peaceG1515.23 7BecauseG1360 the carnalG4561 mindG5427 is enmityG2189 againstG1519 GodG2316: forG1063 it isG5293 notG3756 subjectG5293 to the lawG3551 of GodG2316, neitherG3761 indeedG1063 can beG1410.4 8So thenG1161 they that areG5607 inG1722 the fleshG4561 cannotG3756G1410 pleaseG700 GodG2316. 9ButG1161 yeG5210 areG2075 notG3756 inG1722 the fleshG4561, butG235 inG1722 the SpiritG4151, ifG1512 the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 dwellethG3611 inG1722 youG5213. NowG1161 if any manG1536 hathG2192 notG3756 the SpiritG4151 of ChristG5547, heG3778 isG2076 notG3756 hisG846.
10AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547isinG1722 youG5213, the bodyG4983G3303isdeadG3498 becauseG1223 of sinG266; butG1161 the SpiritG4151 is lifeG2222 becauseG1223 of righteousnessG1343. 11ButG1161 ifG1487 the SpiritG4151 of him that raisedG1453 JesusG2424 fromG1537 the deadG3498 dwellethG3611 inG1722 youG5213, he that raisedG1453 ChristG5547 fromG1537 the deadG3498 shallG2227 alsoG2532 give life toG2227 yourG5216 mortalG2349 bodiesG4983 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 that dwellethG1774 inG1722 youG5213.5 12ThereforeG686G3767, brethrenG80, we areG2070 debtorsG3781, notG3756 to the fleshG4561, to liveG2198 according toG2596 the fleshG4561. 13ForG1063 ifG1487 ye liveG2198 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, ye shallG3195 dieG599: butG1161 ifG1487 yeG2289 through the SpiritG4151 mortifyG2289 the deedsG4234 of the bodyG4983, ye shall liveG2198. 14ForG1063 as many asG3745 are ledG71 by the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, theyG3778 areG1526 the sonsG5207 of GodG2316. 15ForG1063 ye haveG2983 notG3756 receivedG2983 the spiritG4151 of bondageG1397 againG3825 toG1519 fearG5401; butG235 ye have receivedG2983 the SpiritG4151 of adoptionG5206, byG1722 whichG3739 we cryG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3962. 16The SpiritG4151 himselfG846 beareth witnessG4828 with ourG2257 spiritG4151, thatG3754 we areG2070 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316:
17AndG1161 ifG1487 childrenG5043, thenG2532 heirsG2818; heirsG2818 of GodG3303G2316, andG1161 joint-heirsG4789 with ChristG5547; if so beG1512 that we suffer withG4841 him, thatG2443 we may beG4888G2532 glorified togetherG4888. 18ForG1063 I reckonG3049 thatG3754 the sufferingsG3804 of this presentG3568 timeG2540 are notG3756 worthyG514 to be compared withG4314 the gloryG1391 which shallG3195 be revealedG601 inG1519 usG2248. 19ForG1063 the earnest expectationG603 of the creationG2937 waitethG553 for the revealingG602 of the sonsG5207 of GodG2316. 20ForG1063 the creationG2937 was made subjectG5293 to vanityG3153, notG3756 willinglyG1635, butG235 by reasonG1223 of him who hath subjectedG5293 the same inG1909 hopeG1680, 21BecauseG3754 the creationG2937 itselfG846 alsoG2532 shall be deliveredG1659 fromG575 the bondageG1397 of corruptionG5356 intoG1519 the gloriousG1391 libertyG1657 of the childrenG5043 of GodG2316. 22ForG1063 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the wholeG3956 creationG2937 groanethG4959 andG2532 travaileth in pain togetherG4944 untilG891 nowG3568.6 23AndG1161 notG3756 onlyG3440 they, butG235 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532, who haveG2192 the firstfruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 weG2249 ourselvesG846 groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, waitingG553 for the adoptionG5206, that is, the redemptionG629 of ourG2257 bodyG4983. 24ForG1063 we are savedG4982 by hopeG1680: butG1161 hopeG1680 that is seenG991 isG2076 notG3756 hopeG1680: forG1063 whatG3739 a manG5100 seethG991, whyG5101 doth heG1679 yetG2532 hope forG1679? 25ButG1161 ifG1487 we hopeG1679 for whatG3739 we seeG991 notG3756, then withG1223 patienceG5281 we wait forG553 it .
LikewiseG5615 the SpiritG4151 alsoG2532 helpethG4878 ourG2257 infirmityG769: forG1063 we knowG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 we should pray forG4336 asG2526 we oughtG1163: butG235 the SpiritG4151 himselfG846 maketh intercessionG5241 forG5228 usG2257 with groaningsG4726 which cannot be utteredG215. 27AndG1161 he that searchethG2045 the heartsG2588 knowethG1492 whatG5101 is the mindG5427 of the SpiritG4151, becauseG3754 he maketh intercessionG1793 forG5228 the saintsG40 accordingG2596 to the will of GodG2316.7
