For I rejoice in the law of God, in the interior man.

For the law of the spirit of life, which is in Jesus Messiah, hath emancipated thee from the law of sin and death.

For they who are in the flesh, do mind the things of the flesh: and they who are of the Spirit, do mind the things of the Spirit.

For minding the things of the flesh, is death; but minding the things of the Spirit, is life and peace.

Because minding the things of the flesh, is enmity towards God: for it doth not subject itself to the law of God, because it is not possible.

- (For if ye live according to the flesh, ye are to die. But if, by the Spirit, ye mortify the practices of the body, ye will live.

For they who are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God:)

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage, again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Father, our Father.

For I reckon, that the sufferings of the present time, are not comparable with the glory which is to be developed in us.

For the whole creation is hoping and waiting for the development of the sons of God.

For the creation was subjected to vanity, not by its own choice, but because of him who subjected it,

For we know, that all the creatures are groaning and travailing in pain unto this day.

And not only they, but we also in whom are the first fruits of the Spirit, we groan within ourselves, and look anxiously for the adoption of sons, the redemption of our bodies.

Because we live in hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope: for if we saw it, how should we hope for it?

But if we hope for that which is not seen, we are in patient waiting.

So also the Spirit aideth our weakness. For we know not what to pray for, in a proper manner; but the Spirit prayeth for us, with groans not expressible:

and the explorer of hearts, he knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit; because he prayeth for the saints, agreeably to the good pleasure of God.

And we know that he aideth him in all things, for good, who love God; them whom he predestined to be called.

What then shall we say of these things? If God [fn] for us; who [fn] against us?

And, if he spared not his Son, but gave him up for us all, how shall he not give us all things, with him?
