New Testament in a Year

8 Therefore now nothing of condemnation is to them that be in Christ Jesus, which wander not after the flesh.

² For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath delivered me from the law of sin, and of death [hath delivered me from the law of sin, and death].

³ For that that was impossible to the law, in what thing it was frail by flesh, God sent his Son into the likeness of flesh of sin [in that thing it was sick, or frail, by flesh, God sending his Son into the likeness of flesh of sin], and of sin condemned sin in flesh;

⁴ that the justifying of the law were fulfilled in us, that go not after the flesh [that not after the flesh we wander], but after the Spirit.

⁵ For they that be after the flesh, understand those things [savour those things] that be of the flesh; but they that be after the Spirit, feel those things that be of the Spirit.

⁶ For the prudence of flesh is death; but the prudence of Spirit is life and peace.

⁷ For the wisdom of the flesh is enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, for neither it may [soothly neither it may be subject to the law].

⁸ And they that be in flesh, be not able to please to God. [For they that be in flesh, may not please to God.]

⁹ But ye be not in flesh, but in Spirit; if nevertheless the Spirit of God dwelleth in you [dwell in you]. But if any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, this is not his.

¹⁰ For if Christ is in you, the body is dead for sin [the body is dead from sin], but the Spirit liveth for justifying.

¹¹ And if the Spirit of him that raised Jesus Christ from death dwelleth in you, he that raised Jesus Christ from death, shall quicken also your deadly bodies, for the Spirit of him that dwelleth in you.^[a]

¹² Therefore, brethren, we be debtors, not to the flesh, that we live after the flesh.

¹³ For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die; but if ye by the Spirit [shall] slay the deeds of the flesh, ye shall live.

¹⁴ For whoever be led by the Spirit of God, these be the sons of God.

¹⁵ For ye have not taken again the spirit of servage in dread, but ye have taken the Spirit of adoption of sons, in which we cry, Abba, Father.

¹⁶ And that Spirit yieldeth witnessing to our spirit, that we be the sons of God;

¹⁷ if sons, and heirs, heirs forsooth of God, and heirs together with Christ [forsooth if sons, and heirs, soothly heirs of God, truly even-heirs of Christ]; if nevertheless we suffer together, that also we be glorified together.

¹⁸ And I deem, that the passions of this time be not worthy to the glory to coming [be not even worthy to the glory to come], that shall be showed in us.

¹⁹ For the abiding of creature abideth the showing of the sons of God.

²⁰ But the creature is subject to vanity, not willing(ly), but for him that made it subject in hope; [Soothly the creature is subject to vanity, not willing, but for him that subjected it in hope;]

²¹ for that creature [for and that creature] shall be delivered from servage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the sons of God.
