Romans 8 (WEBP)

[1] There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.°
[2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
[3] For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,
[4] that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
[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, the things of the Spirit.
[6] For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;
[7] because the mind of the flesh is hostile toward God, for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.
[8] Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.
[9] But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
[10] If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
[11] But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
[12] So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
[13] For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
[14] For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.
[15] For you didn’t receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba!° Father!”
[16] The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
[17] and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
[18] For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.
[19] For the creation waits with eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.
[20] For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope
[21] that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
[22] For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.
[23] Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.
[24] For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?
[25] But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience.
[26] In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered.
[27] He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.
[28] We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.
[29] For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.§
[30] Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
[31] What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
[32] He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?
[33] Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies.
[34] Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
[35] Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
[36] Even as it is written, “For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”
[37] No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
[38] For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
[39] nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8 (KJVS)

[1] [There is] therefore G686 now G3568 no G3762 condemnation G2631 to them which are in G1722 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424, who walk G4043 (PresActPtc) not G3361 after G2596 the flesh G4561, but G235 after G2596 the Spirit G4151.
[2] For G1063 the law G3551 of the Spirit G4151 of life G2222 in G1722 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 hath made G1659 me G3165 free G1659 (AorActInd) from G575 the law G3551 of sin G266 and G2532 death G2288.
[3] For G1063 what the law G3551 could not do G102, in G1722 that G3739 it was weak G770 (ImpfActInd) through G1223 the flesh G4561, God G2316 sending G3992 (AorActPtc) his own G1438 Son G5207 in G1722 the likeness G3667 of sinful G266 flesh G4561, and G2532 for G4012 sin G266, condemned G2632 (AorActInd) sin G266 in G1722 the flesh G4561:
[4] That G2443 the righteousness G1345 of the law G3551 might be fulfilled G4137 (AorPasSubj) in G1722 us G2254, who walk G4043 (PresActPtc) not G3361 after G2596 the flesh G4561, but G235 after G2596 the Spirit G4151.
[5] For G1063 they that are G5607 (PresPtc) after G2596 the flesh G4561 do mind G5426 (PresActInd) the things G3588 of the flesh G4561; but G1161 they that are after G2596 the Spirit G4151 the things G3588 of the Spirit G4151.
[6] For G1063 to be G5427 carnally G4561 minded G5427 [is] death G2288; but G1161 to be G5427 spiritually G4151 minded G5427 [is] life G2222 and G2532 peace G1515.
[7] Because G1360 the carnal G4561 mind G5427 [is] enmity G2189 against G1519 God G2316: for G1063 it is G5293 not G3756 subject G5293 (PresPasInd) to the law G3551 of God G2316, neither G3761 indeed G1063 can be G1410 (PresMidPasDepInd).
[8] So then G1161 they that are G5607 (PresPtc) in G1722 the flesh G4561 cannot G3756 G1410 (PresMidPasDepInd) please G700 (AorActInf) God G2316.
[9] But G1161 ye G5210 are G2075 (PresInd) not G3756 in G1722 the flesh G4561, but G235 in G1722 the Spirit G4151, if so be G1512 that the Spirit G4151 of God G2316 dwell G3611 (PresActInd) in G1722 you G5213. Now G1161 if any man G1536 have G2192 (PresActInd) not G3756 the Spirit G4151 of Christ G5547, he G3778 is G2076 (PresInd) none G3756 of his G846.
[10] And G1161 if G1487 Christ G5547 [be] in G1722 you G5213, the body G4983 G3303 [is] dead G3498 because G1223 of sin G266; but G1161 the Spirit G4151 [is] life G2222 because G1223 of righteousness G1343.
[11] But G1161 if G1487 the Spirit G4151 of him that raised up G1453 (AorActPtc) Jesus G2424 from G1537 the dead G3498 dwell G3611 (PresActInd) in G1722 you G5213, he that raised up G1453 (AorActPtc) Christ G5547 from G1537 the dead G3498 shall G2227 also G2532 quicken G2227 (FutActInd) your G5216 mortal G2349 bodies G4983 by G1223 his G846 Spirit G4151 that dwelleth G1774 (PresActPtc) G1774 (PresActPtc) in G1722 you G5213.
[12] Therefore G686 G3767, brethren G80, we are G2070 (PresInd) debtors G3781, not G3756 to the flesh G4561, to live G2198 (PresActInf) after G2596 the flesh G4561.
[13] For G1063 if G1487 ye live G2198 (PresActInd) after G2596 the flesh G4561, ye shall G3195 (PresActInd) die G599 (PresActInf): but G1161 if G1487 ye G2289 through the Spirit G4151 do mortify G2289 (PresActInd) the deeds G4234 of the body G4983, ye shall live G2198 (FutMidDepInd).
[14] For G1063 as many as G3745 are led G71 (PresPasInd) by the Spirit G4151 of God G2316, they G3778 are G1526 (PresInd) the sons G5207 of God G2316.
[15] For G1063 ye have G2983 not G3756 received G2983 (Aor2ActInd) the spirit G4151 of bondage G1397 again G3825 to G1519 fear G5401; but G235 ye have received G2983 (Aor2ActInd) the Spirit G4151 of adoption G5206, whereby G1722 G3739 we cry G2896 (PresActInd), Abba G5, Father G3962.
[16] The Spirit G4151 itself G846 beareth witness G4828 (PresActInd) with our G2257 spirit G4151, that G3754 we are G2070 (PresInd) the children G5043 of God G2316:
[17] And G1161 if G1487 children G5043, then G2532 heirs G2818; heirs G2818 of God G3303 G2316, and G1161 joint-heirs G4789 with Christ G5547; if so be G1512 that we suffer with G4841 (PresActInd) [him], that G2443 we may be G4888 also G2532 glorified together G4888 (AorPasSubj).
[18] For G1063 I reckon G3049 (PresMidPasDepInd) that G3754 the sufferings G3804 of this present G3568 time G2540 [are] not G3756 worthy G514 [to be compared] with G4314 the glory G1391 which shall G3195 (PresActPtc) be revealed G601 (AorPasInf) in G1519 us G2248.
[19] For G1063 the earnest expectation G603 of the creature G2937 waiteth G553 (PresMidPasDepInd) for the manifestation G602 of the sons G5207 of God G2316.
[20] For G1063 the creature G2937 was made subject G5293 (Aor2PasDepSubj) to vanity G3153, not G3756 willingly G1635, but G235 by reason G1223 of him who hath subjected G5293 (AorActPtc) [the same] in G1909 hope G1680,
[21] Because G3754 the creature G2937 itself G846 also G2532 shall be delivered G1659 (FutPasInd) from G575 the bondage G1397 of corruption G5356 into G1519 the glorious G1391 liberty G1657 of the children G5043 of God G2316.
[22] For G1063 we know G1492 (PerfActInd) that G3754 the whole G3956 creation G2937 groaneth G4959 (PresActInd) and G2532 travaileth in pain together G4944 (PresActInd) until G891 now G3568.
[23] And G1161 not G3756 only G3440 [they], but G235 ourselves G846 also G2532, which have G2192 (PresActPtc) the firstfruits G536 of the Spirit G4151, even G2532 we G2249 ourselves G846 groan G4727 (PresActInd) within G1722 ourselves G1438, waiting G553 (PresMidPasDepPtc) for the adoption G5206, [to wit], the redemption G629 of our G2257 body G4983.
[24] For G1063 we are saved G4982 (AorPasInd) by hope G1680: but G1161 hope G1680 that is seen G991 (PresPasPtc) is G2076 (PresInd) not G3756 hope G1680: for G1063 what G3739 a man G5100 seeth G991 (PresActInd), why G5101 doth he G1679 yet G2532 hope for G1679 (PresActInd)?
[25] But G1161 if G1487 we hope G1679 (PresActInd) for that G3739 we see G991 (PresActInd) not G3756, [then] do we G553 with G1223 patience G5281 wait for G553 (PresMidPasDepInd) [it].
[26] G1161 Likewise G5615 the Spirit G4151 also G2532 helpeth G4878 (PresMidPasDepInd) our G2257 infirmities G769: for G1063 we know G1492 (PerfActInd) not G3756 what G5101 we should pray for G4336 (AorMidDepSubj) as G2526 we ought G1163 (PresInd): but G235 the Spirit G4151 itself G846 maketh intercession G5241 (PresActInd) for G5228 us G2257 with groanings G4726 which cannot be uttered G215.
[27] And G1161 he that searcheth G2045 (PresActPtc) the hearts G2588 knoweth G1492 (PerfActInd) what G5101 [is] the mind G5427 of the Spirit G4151, because G3754 he maketh intercession G1793 (PresActInd) for G5228 the saints G40 according G2596 to [the will of] God G2316.
[28] And G1161 we know G1492 (PerfActInd) that all things G3956 work together G4903 (PresActInd) for G1519 good G18 to them that G3754 love G25 (PresActPtc) God G2316, to them who are G5607 (PresPtc) the called G2822 according G2596 to [his] purpose G4286.
[29] For G3754 whom G3739 he did foreknow G4267 (AorActInd), he G4309 also G2532 did predestinate G4309 (AorActInd) [to be] conformed G4832 to the image G1504 of his G846 Son G5207, that G1519 he G846 might be G1511 (PresInf) the firstborn G4416 among G1722 many G4183 brethren G80.
[30] Moreover G1161 whom G3739 he did predestinate G4309 (AorActInd), them G5128 he G2564 also G2532 called G2564 (AorActInd): and G2532 whom G3739 he called G2564 (AorActInd), them G5128 he G1344 also G2532 justified G1344 (AorActInd): and G1161 whom G3739 he justified G1344 (AorActInd), them G5128 he G1392 also G2532 glorified G1392 (AorActInd).
[31] What G5101 shall we G2046 then G3767 say G2046 (FutActInd) to G4314 these things G5023? If G1487 God G2316 [be] for G5228 us G2257, who G5101 [can be] against G2596 us G2257?
[32] He that G3739 G1065 spared G5339 (AorMidDepInd) not G3756 his own G2398 Son G5207, but G235 delivered G3860 him G846 up G3860 (AorActInd) for G5228 us G2257 all G3956, how G4459 shall he G5483 not G3780 with G4862 him G846 also G2532 freely give G5483 (FutMidDepInd) us G2254 all things G3956?
[33] Who G5101 shall lay any thing G1458 (FutActInd) to the charge G2596 of God’s G2316 elect G1588? [It is] God G2316 that justifieth G1344 (PresActPtc).
[34] Who G5101 [is] he that condemneth G2632 (PresActPtc) (FutActPtc)? [It is] Christ G5547 that died G599 (Aor2ActPtc), yea G1161 rather G3123 G2532, that is risen again G1453 (AorPasPtc), who G3739 is G2076 (PresInd) even G2532 at G1722 the right hand G1188 of God G2316, who G3739 also G2532 maketh intercession G1793 (PresActInd) for G5228 us G2257.
[35] Who G5101 shall separate G5563 (FutActInd) us G2248 from G575 the love G26 of Christ G5547? [shall] tribulation G2347, or G2228 distress G4730, or G2228 persecution G1375, or G2228 famine G3042, or G2228 nakedness G1132, or G2228 peril G2794, or G2228 sword G3162?
[36] As G2531 it is written G1125 (PerfPasInd), G3754 For thy G4675 sake G1752 we are killed G2289 (PresPasInd) all G3650 the day long G2250; we are accounted G3049 (AorPasInd) as G5613 sheep G4263 for the slaughter G4967.
[37] Nay G235, in G1722 all G3956 these things G5125 we are more than conquerors G5245 (PresActInd) through G1223 him that loved G25 (AorActPtc) us G2248.
[38] For G1063 I am persuaded G3982 (PerfPasInd), that G3754 neither G3777 death G2288, nor G3777 life G2222, nor G3777 angels G32, nor G3777 principalities G746, nor G3777 powers G1411, nor G3777 things present G1764 (PerfActPtc), nor G3777 things to come G3195 (PresActPtc),
[39] Nor G3777 height G5313, nor G3777 depth G899, nor G3777 any G5100 other G2087 creature G2937, shall be able G1410 (FutMidDepInd) to separate G5563 (AorActInf) us G2248 from G575 the love G26 of God G2316, which is in G1722 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 our G2257 Lord G2962.

Young’s Literal Translation

Romans 8 (YLT)

[1] There is, then, now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit;
[2] for the law of the Spirit of the life in Christ Jesus did set me free from the law of the sin and of the death;
[3] for what the law was not able to do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, His own Son having sent in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, did condemn the sin in the flesh,
[4] that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
[5] For those who are according to the flesh, the things of the flesh do mind; and those according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit;
[6] for the mind of the flesh is death, and the mind of the Spirit-life and peace;
[7] because the mind of the flesh is enmity to God, for to the law of God it doth not subject itself,
[8] for neither is it able; and those who are in the flesh are not able to please God.
[9] And ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God doth dwell in you; and if any one hath not the Spirit of Christ-this one is not His;
[10] and if Christ is in you, the body, indeed, is dead because of sin, and the Spirit is life because of righteousness,
[11] and if the Spirit of Him who did raise up Jesus out of the dead doth dwell in you, He who did raise up the Christ out of the dead shall quicken also your dying bodies, through His Spirit dwelling in you.
[12] So, then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh;
[13] for if according to the flesh ye do live, ye are about to die; and if, by the Spirit, the deeds of the body ye put to death, ye shall live;
[14] for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God;
[15] for ye did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye did receive a spirit of adoption in which we cry, ‘Abba-Father.’
[16] The Spirit himself doth testify with our spirit, that we are children of God;
[17] and if children, also heirs, heirs, indeed, of God, and heirs together of Christ-if, indeed, we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.
[18] For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory about to be revealed in us;
[19] for the earnest looking out of the creation doth expect the revelation of the sons of God;
[20] for to vanity was the creation made subject-not of its will, but because of Him who did subject it-in hope,
[21] that also the creation itself shall be set free from the servitude of the corruption to the liberty of the glory of the children of God;
[22] for we have known that all the creation doth groan together, and doth travail in pain together till now.
[23] And not only so, but also we ourselves, having the first-fruit of the Spirit, we also ourselves in ourselves do groan, adoption expecting-the redemption of our body;
[24] for in hope we were saved, and hope beheld is not hope; for what any one doth behold, why also doth he hope for it?
[25] and if what we do not behold we hope for, through continuance we expect it.
[26] And, in like manner also, the Spirit doth help our weaknesses; for, what we may pray for, as it behoveth us, we have not known, but the Spirit himself doth make intercession for us with groanings unutterable,
[27] and He who is searching the hearts hath known what is the mind of the Spirit, because according to God he doth intercede for saints.
[28] And we have known that to those loving God all things do work together for good, to those who are called according to purpose;
[29] because whom He did foreknow, He also did fore-appoint, conformed to the image of His Son, that he might be first-born among many brethren;
[30] and whom He did fore-appoint, these also He did call; and whom He did call, these also He declared righteous; and whom He declared righteous, these also He did glorify.
[31] What, then, shall we say unto these things? if God is for us, who is against us?
[32] He who indeed His own Son did not spare, but for us all did deliver him up, how shall He not also with him the all things grant to us?
[33] Who shall lay a charge against the choice ones of God? God is He that is declaring righteous,
[34] who is he that is condemning? Christ is He that died, yea, rather also, was raised up; who is also on the right hand of God-who also doth intercede for us.
[35] Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
[36] (according as it hath been written-‘For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long, we were reckoned as sheep of slaughter,’)
[37] but in all these we more than conquer, through him who loved us;
[38] for I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor messengers, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present,
[39] nor things about to be, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of god, that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
