New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
2 For the law of the Spirit[a] of life in Christ Jesus has set you[b] free from the law of sin and of death.(A) 3 For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do: by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and to deal with sin,[c] he condemned sin in the flesh,(B) 4 so that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.[d](C) 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit[e] set their minds on the things of the Spirit.[f](D) 6 To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit[g] is life and peace.(E) 7 For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law—indeed, it cannot,(F) 8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
