Romains 8:13-15
La Bible du Semeur
13 Car, si vous vivez à la manière de l’homme livré à lui-même, vous mourrez, mais si, par l’Esprit, vous faites mourir les actes mauvais que vous accomplissez dans votre corps, vous vivrez. 14 Car ceux qui sont conduits par l’Esprit de Dieu sont fils de Dieu.
15 En effet, vous n’avez pas reçu un Esprit qui fait de vous des esclaves et vous ramène à la crainte : non, vous avez reçu l’Esprit en conséquence de votre adoption[a] par Dieu comme ses fils et ses filles. Car c’est par cet Esprit que nous crions : Abba[b], c’est-à-dire Père !
