Dual Panel1Therefore<686> there is now<3568> no<3762> condemnation<2631> for those<3588> who are in Christ<5547> Jesus<2424>.
2For the law<3551> of the Spirit<4151> of life<2222> in Christ<5547> Jesus<2424> has set<1659> you free<1659> from the law<3551> of sin<266> and of death<2288>.
3For what<102> the Law<3551> could<102> not do, weak<770> as it was through<1223> the flesh<4561>, God<2316> did: sending<3992> His own<1438> Son<5207> in the likeness<3667> of sinful<266> flesh<4561> and as an offering for sin<266>, He condemned<2632> sin<266> in the flesh<4561>,
4so<2443> that the requirement<1345> of the Law<3551> might be fulfilled<4137> in us, who do not walk<4043> according<2596> to the flesh<4561> but according<2596> to the Spirit<4151>.
5For those<3588> who are according<2596> to the flesh<4561> set<5426> their minds<5426> on the things of the flesh<4561>, but those<3588> who are according<2596> to the Spirit<4151>, the things of the Spirit<4151>.
6For the mind<5427> set<5427> on the flesh<4561> is death<2288>, but the mind<5427> set<5427> on the Spirit<4151> is life<2222> and peace<1515>,
7because<1360> the mind<5427> set<5427> on the flesh<4561> is hostile<2189> toward<1519> God<2316>; for it does not subject<5293> itself to the law<3551> of God<2316>, for it is not even<3761> able<1410> to do so,
8and those<3588> who are in the flesh<4561> cannot<1410><3756> please<700> God<2316>.
9However<1161>, you are not in the flesh<4561> but in the Spirit<4151>, if<1512> indeed<1512> the Spirit<4151> of God<2316> dwells<3611> in you. But if<1487> anyone<5100> does not have<2192> the Spirit<4151> of Christ<5547>, he does not belong<1510> to Him.
10If<1487> Christ<5547> is in you, though<3303> the body<4983> is dead<3498> because<1223> of sin<266>, yet<1161> the spirit<4151> is alive<2222> because<1223> of righteousness<1343>.
11But if<1487> the Spirit<4151> of Him who raised<1453> Jesus<2424> from the dead<3498> dwells<3611> in you, He who raised<1453> Christ<5547> Jesus<2424> from the dead<3498> will also<2532> give<2227> life<2227> to your mortal<2349> bodies<4983> through<1223> His Spirit<4151> who dwells<3611> in you.
12So<686> then<686>, brethren<80>, we are under<3781> obligation<3781>, not to the flesh<4561>, to live<2198> according<2596> to the flesh<4561>--
13for if<1487> you are living<2198> according<2596> to the flesh<4561>, you must<3195> die<599>; but if<1487> by the Spirit<4151> you are putting<2289> to death<2289> the deeds<4234> of the body<4983>, you will live<2198>.
14For all<3745> who<3745> are being led<71> by the Spirit<4151> of God<2316>, these<3778> are sons<5207> of God<2316>.
15For you have not received<2983> a spirit<4151> of slavery<1397> leading<1519> to fear<5401> again<3825>, but you have received<2983> a spirit<4151> of adoption<5206> as sons<5206> by which<3739> we cry<2896> out, "Abba<5>! Father<3962>!"
16The Spirit<4151> Himself<846> testifies<4828> with our spirit<4151> that we are children<5043> of God<2316>,
17and if<1487> children<5043>, heirs<2818> also<2532>, heirs<2818> of God<2316> and fellow<4789> heirs<4789> with Christ<5547>, if<1512> indeed<1512> we suffer<4841> with Him so<2443> that we may also<2532> be glorified<4888> with Him.
18For I consider<3049> that the sufferings<3804> of this<3588> present<3568> time<2540> are not worthy<514> to be compared with the glory<1391> that is to be revealed<601> to us.
19For the anxious<603> longing<603> of the creation<2937> waits<553> eagerly<553> for the revealing<602> of the sons<5207> of God<2316>.
20For the creation<2937> was subjected<5293> to futility<3153>, not willingly<1635>, but because<1223> of Him who subjected<5293> it, in hope<1680>
21that the creation<2937> itself<846> also<2532> will be set<1659> free<1659> from its slavery<1397> to corruption<5356> into the freedom<1657> of the glory<1391> of the children<5043> of God<2316>.
22For we know<3609> that the whole<3956> creation<2937> groans<4959> and suffers<4944> the pains<4944> of childbirth<4944> together<4959><4944> until<891> now<3568>.
23And not only<3440> this, but also<2532> we ourselves<846>, having<2192> the first<536> fruits<536> of the Spirit<4151>, even<2532> we ourselves<846> groan<4727> within<1722> ourselves<1438>, waiting<553> eagerly<553> for our adoption<5206> as sons<5206>, the redemption<629> of our body<4983>.
24For in hope<1680> we have been saved<4982>, but hope<1680> that is seen<991> is not hope<1680>; for who<5100> hopes<1680> for what<3739> he already sees<991>?
25But if<1487> we hope<1679> for what<3739> we do not see<991>, with perseverance<5281> we wait<553> eagerly<553> for it.
26In the same<5615> way<5615> the Spirit<4151> also<2532> helps<4878> our weakness<769>; for we do not know<3609> how<5101> to pray<4336> as we should<1163>, but the Spirit<4151> Himself<846> intercedes<5241> for us with groanings<4726> too<215> deep<215> for words<215>;
27and He who searches<2045> the hearts<2588> knows<3609> what<5101> the mind<5427> of the Spirit<4151> is, because<3754> He intercedes<1793> for the saints<40> according<2596> to the will of God<2316>.
28And we know<3609> that God<2316> causes<4903> all<3956> things<3956> to work<4903> together<4903> for good<18> to those<3588> who love<25> God<2316>, to those<3588> who are called<2822> according<2596> to His purpose<4286>.
29For those<3739> whom<3739> He foreknew<4267>, He also<2532> predestined<4309> to become conformed<4832> to the image<1504> of His Son<5207>, so<1519> that He would be the firstborn<4416> among<1722> many<4183> brethren<80>;
30and these<3778> whom<3739> He predestined<4309>, He also<2532> called<2564>; and these<3778> whom<3739> He called<2564>, He also<2532> justified<1344>; and these<3778> whom<3739> He justified<1344>, He also<2532> glorified<1392>.
31What<5101> then<3767> shall we say<3004> to these<3778> things<3778>? If<1487> God<2316> is for us, who<5101> is against<2596> us?
32He who<3739> did not spare<5339> His own<2398> Son<5207>, but delivered<3860> Him over for us all<3956>, how<4459> will He not also<2532> with Him freely<5483> give<5483> us all<3956> things<3956>?
33Who<5101> will bring<1458> a charge<1458> against<2596> God's<2316> elect<1588>? God<2316> is the one who justifies<1344>;
34who<5101> is the one who condemns<2632>? Christ<5547> Jesus<2424> is He who died<599>, yes<1161>, rather<3123> who was raised<1453>, who<3739> is at the right<1188> hand<1188> of God<2316>, who<3739> also<2532> intercedes<1793> for us.
35Who<5101> will separate<5563> us from the love<26> of Christ<5547>? Will tribulation<2347>, or<2228> distress<4730>, or<2228> persecution<1375>, or<2228> famine<3042>, or<2228> nakedness<1132>, or<2228> peril<2794>, or<2228> sword<3162>?
36Just<2531> as it is written<1125>, "FOR YOUR SAKE<1752> WE ARE BEING PUT<2289> TO DEATH<2289> ALL<3650> DAY<2250> LONG; WE WERE CONSIDERED<3049> AS SHEEP<4263> TO BE SLAUGHTERED<4967>."
37But in all<3956> these<3778> things<3778> we overwhelmingly<5245> conquer<5245> through<1223> Him who loved<25> us.
38For I am convinced<3982> that neither<3777> death<2288>, nor<3777> life<2222>, nor<3777> angels<32>, nor<3777> principalities<746>, nor<3777> things<1764> present<1764>, nor<3777> things<3195> to come<3195>, nor<3777> powers<1411>,
39nor<3777> height<5313>, nor<3777> depth<899>, nor<3777> any<5100> other<2087> created<2937> thing<2937>, will be able<1410> to separate<5563> us from the love<26> of God<2316>, which is in Christ<5547> Jesus<2424> our Lord<2962>.
