1[There is] therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and of death. 3For what [was] impossible [for] the law to do in that it was weak through the flesh, God [did] by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and concerning sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, 4so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5For those who are fleshly set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those [who live] according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace. 7Because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not submit to the law of God, nor indeed can it. 8And those that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. 10But if Christ is in you, the body indeed is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is alive because of righteousness. 11But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit indwelling in you. 12Therefore, brothers, we are debtors-not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13For if you live according to the flesh you shall die; but if by [the] Spirit you put to death the practices of the body, you will live. 14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again unto fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." 16The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God. 17And if children, then heirs-heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer together, so that we may also be glorified together. 18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy [to be compared] with the coming glory to be revealed in us. 19For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly awaits the unveiling of the sons of God. 20For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but on account of Him who subjected it in hope; 21because even the creation itself shall be freed from the slavery of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know that all the creation groans together and labors in birth together until now. 23And not only that, but also [we ]ourselves having the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting adoption, the redemption of our body. 24For by this hope we were saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he[ ]sees? 25But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly await it with endurance. 26Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings. 27But He that searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes on behalf of the saints according to [the will] [of] God. 28And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to [His ]purpose. 29Because whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; and whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified. 31What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who [can be] against us? 32He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up on behalf of us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33Who shall bring an accusation against God's elect? It is God who justifies. 34Who is he that condemns? Christ is the [One] having died, but rather also having been raised, who is even at [the] right [hand] of God, who also intercedes on our behalf. 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36Just as it is written: "For Your sake we are put to death the whole day long; we are accounted as sheep for slaughter." 37But in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39nor height nor depth, nor anything else in creation, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
