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 does not subject itself, ⁸ for neither is it able; and those who are in the flesh are not able to please God. ⁹ And you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God does dwell in you; and if any one has 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 does 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 you do live, you are about to die; and if, by the Spirit, the deeds of the body you put to death, you shall live; ¹⁴ for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God; ¹⁵ for you did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but you did receive a spirit of adoption in which we cry, 'Abba -- Father.' ¹⁶ The Spirit himself does 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 does 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 does groan together, and does 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 does behold, why also does 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 does help our weaknesses; for, what we may pray for, as it behooves us, we have not known, but the Spirit himself does make intercession for us with groanings unutterable, ²⁷ and He who is searching the hearts has known what is the mind of the Spirit, because according to God he does 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 does 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 has been written -- 'For Your 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.

¹⁶ of the same mind one toward another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; become not wise in your own conceit;

³ for there shall be a season when the sound teaching they will not suffer, but according to their own desires to themselves they shall heap up teachers -- itching in the hearing,

¹ Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes, and to his disciples, ² saying, 'On the seat of Moses sat down the scribes and the Pharisees; ³ all, then, as much as they may say to you to observe, observe and do, but according to their works do not, for they say, and do not; ⁴ for they bind together burdens heavy and grievous to be borne, and lay upon the shoulders of men, but with their finger they will not move them. ⁵ 'And all their works they do to be seen by men, and they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the fringes of their garments, ⁶ they love also the chief couches in the supper, and the chief seats in the synagogues, ⁷ and the salutations in the market-places, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi. ⁸ 'And you -- you may not be called Rabbi, for one is your director -- the Christ, and all you are brethren; ⁹ and you may not call any your father on the earth, for one is your Father, who is in the heavens, ¹⁰ nor may you be called directors, for one is your director -- the Christ. ¹¹ And the greater of you shall be your ministrant, ¹² and whoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled, and whoever shall humble himself shall be exalted. ¹³ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you shut up the reign of the heavens before men, for you do not go in, nor those going in do you permit to enter. ¹⁴ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you eat up the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, because of this you shall receive more abundant judgment. ¹⁵ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you go round the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and whenever it may happen -- you make him a son of gehenna twofold more than yourselves. ¹⁶ 'Woo to you, blind guides, who are saying, Whoever may swear by the sanctuary, it is nothing, but whoever may swear by the gold of the sanctuary -- is debtor! ¹⁷ Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gold, or the sanctuary that is sanctifying the gold? ¹⁸ 'And, whoever may swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever may swear by the gift that is upon it -- is debtor! ¹⁹ Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gift, or the altar that is sanctifying the gift? ²⁰ 'He therefore who did swear by the altar, does swear by it, and by all things on it; ²¹ and he who did swear by the sanctuary, does swear by it, and by Him who is dwelling in it; ²² and he who did swear by the heaven, does swear by the throne of God, and by Him who is sitting upon it. ²³ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you give tithe of the mint, and the dill, and the cumin, and did neglect the weightier things of the Law -- the judgment, and the kindness, and the faith; these it behoved you to do, and those not to neglect. ²⁴ 'Blind guides! Who are straining out the gnat, and the camel are swallowing. ²⁵ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you make clean the outside of the cup and the plate, and within they are full of rapine and incontinence. ²⁶ 'Blind Pharisee! Cleanse first the inside of the cup and the plate, that the outside of them also may become clean. ²⁷ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you are like to whitewashed sepulchres, which outwardly indeed do appear beautiful, and within are full of bones of dead men, and of all uncleanness; ²⁸ so also you outwardly indeed do appear to men righteous, and within you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness. ²⁹ 'Woo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the tombs of the righteous, ³⁰ and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. ³¹ So that you testify to yourselves, that you are sons of them who did murder the prophets; ³² and you -- you fill up the measure of your fathers. ³³ 'Serpents! Brood of vipers! How may you escape from the judgment of the gehenna? ³⁴ 'Because of this, lo, I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes, and of them you will kill and crucify, and of them you will scourge in your synagogues, and will pursue from city to city; ³⁵ that on you may come all the righteous blood being poured out on the earth from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar: ³⁶ verily I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation. ³⁷ 'Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that is killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto you, how often did I will to gather your children together, as a hen does gather her own chickens under the wings, and you did not will. ³⁸ Lo, left desolate to you is your house; ³⁹ for I say to you, you may not see me henceforth, till you may say, Blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord.'

¹ My brethren, hold not, in respect of persons, the faith of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ, ² for if there may come into your synagogue a man with gold ring, in gay raiment, and there may come in also a poor man in vile raiment, ³ and you may look upon him bearing the gay raiment, and may say to him, 'You -- sit you here well,' and to the poor man may say, 'You -- stand you there, or, Sit you here under my footstool,' -- ⁴ you did not judge fully in yourselves, and did become ill-reasoning judges. ⁵ Hearken, my brethren beloved, did not God choose the poor of this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the reign that He promised to those loving Him? ⁶ and you did dishonour the poor one; do not the rich oppress you and themselves draw you to judgment-seats; ⁷ do they not themselves speak evil of the good name that was called upon you? ⁸ If, indeed, royal law you complete, according to the Writing, 'You shall love thy neighbour as thyself,' -- you do well; ⁹ and if you accept persons, sin you do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors; ¹⁰ for whoever the whole law shall keep, and shall stumble in one point, he has become guilty of all; ¹¹ for He who is saying, 'You may not commit adultery,' said also, 'You may do no murder;' and if you shall not commit adultery, and shall commit murder, you have become a transgressor of law; ¹² so speak you and so do, as about by a law of liberty to be judged, ¹³ for the judgment without kindness is to him not having done kindness, and exult does kindness over judgment.

¹⁰ And I call upon you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that the same thing you may all say, and there may not be divisions among you, and you may be perfected in the same mind, and in the same judgment,
