Chapter 7
1.1
Or don’t you know, brothers (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man for as long as he lives? For the woman that has a husband is bound by law to the husband while he lives,
2.1
but if the husband dies, she is discharged from the law of the husband.
3.1
So then if, while the husband lives, she is joined to another man, she would be called an adulteress.
3.2
But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is no adulteress, though she is joined to another man.
4.1
Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ,
4.2
that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.
23.1
but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. What a wretched man I am!
24.1
Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
25.1
I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord!
25.2
So then with the mind, I myself serve God’s law, but with the flesh, sin’s law.
Chapter 8
1.1
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.
2.1
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
6.1
8.1
for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be. Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.
9.1
But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you.
9.2
But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
10.1
If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
11.1
But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you,
11.2
12.1
So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
Chapter 7
1
Or don’t you know, brothers[1] (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man for as long as he lives?
Or[G2228] don’t[G3756] you[G3754] know,[G1097] brothers[G80] for[G1063] I[G1063] speak[G2980] to[G1909] men[G3588] who[G3588] know[G1097] the[G1909] law),[G3551] that[G3754] the[G1909] law[G3551] has[G3748] dominion[G2961] over[G1909] a[G1909] man[G444] for[G1063] as[G3745] long[G5550] as[G3745] he[G3754] lives?[G2198]
2
For the woman that has a husband is bound by law to the husband while he lives, but if the husband dies, she is discharged from the law of the husband.
For[G1063] the[G1161] woman[G1135] that[G3588] has[G3551] a[G1437] husband[G5220] is[G3588] bound[G1210] by[G2198] law[G3551] to[G1161] the[G1161] husband[G5220] while[G1161] he[G1161] lives,[G2198] but[G1161] if[G1437] the[G1161] husband[G5220] dies,[G599] she[G1161] is[G3588] discharged[G2673] from[G3588] the[G1161] law[G3551] of[G3551] the[G1161] husband.[G5220]
3
So then if, while the husband lives, she is joined to another man, she would be called an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is no adulteress, though she is joined to another man.
So[G3767] then[G3767] if,[G1437] while[G1161] the[G1161] husband[G435] lives,[G2198] she[G1161] is[G1510] joined[G1096] to[G1096] another[G2087] man,[G3361] she[G1161] would[G1096] be[G1096] called[G5537] an[G1096] adulteress.[G3428] But[G1161] if[G1437] the[G1161] husband[G435] dies,[G599] she[G1161] is[G1510] free[G1658] from[G3588] the[G1161] law,[G3551] so[G3767] that[G3588] she[G1161] is[G1510] no[G3361] adulteress,[G3428] though[G1437] she[G1161] is[G1510] joined[G1096] to[G1096] another[G2087] man.[G3361]
4
Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.
Therefore,[G1223] my[G1473] brothers,[G80] you[G5210] also[G2532] were[G3588] made[G1096] dead[G3498] to[G1519] the[G2532] law[G3551] through[G1223] the[G2532] body[G4983] of[G1537] Christ,[G5547] that[G2443] you[G5210] would[G1096] be[G1096] joined[G1096] to[G1519] another,[G2087] to[G1519] him[G3588] who[G3588] was[G1096] raised[G1453] from[G1537] the[G2532] dead,[G3498] that[G2443] we[G2532] might[G2532] produce[G4160] fruit[G2592] to[G1519] God.[G2316]
5
For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.
For[G1063] when[G3753] we[G2249] were[G1510] in[G1722] the[G1722] flesh,[G4561] the[G1722] sinful[G268] passions[G3804] which[G3588] were[G1510] through[G1223] the[G1722] law[G3551] worked[G1754] in[G1722] our[G1223] members[G3196] to[G1519] bring[G1510] out[G1063] fruit[G2592] to[G1519] death.[G2288]
6
But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
But[G1161] now[G1161] we[G2249] have[G2532] been[G2532] discharged[G2673] from[G2532] the[G1722] law,[G3551] having[G2532] died[G3588] to[G2532] that[G3739] in[G1722] which[G3739] we[G2249] were[G3588] held;[G2722] so[G2532] that[G3739] we[G2249] serve[G1398] in[G1722] newness[G2538] of[G4151] the[G1722] spirit,[G4151] and[G2532] not[G3756] in[G1722] oldness[G3821] of[G4151] the[G1722] letter.[G1121]
7
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin, except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting, unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”[1]
What[G5101] shall[G5101] we[G1063] say[G3004] then?[G3767] Is[G3588] the[G1223] law[G3551] sin?[G266] May[G3004] it[G1063] never[G3756] be![G1096] However,[G3767] I[G1063] wouldn’t have[G1096] known[G1097] sin[G266] except[G1487] through[G1223] the[G1223] law.[G3551] For[G1063] I[G1063] wouldn’t have[G1096] known[G1097] coveting[G1939] unless[G1487] the[G1223] law[G3551] had[G3588] said,[G3004] “You[G1487] shall[G5101] not[G3756] covet.”[G1937]
8
But sin, finding occasion through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of coveting. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
But[G1161] sin,[G266] finding[G1063] occasion[G1223] through[G1223] the[G1722] commandment,[G1785] produced[G2716] in[G1722] me[G1473] all[G3956] kinds[G3956] of[G1223] coveting.[G1939] For[G1063] apart[G5565] from[G3588] the[G1722] law,[G3551] sin[G266] is[G3588] dead.[G3498]
9
I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
I[G1473] was[G3588] alive[G2198] apart[G5565] from[G2064] the[G1161] law[G3551] once,[G4218] but[G1161] when[G1161] the[G1161] commandment[G1785] came,[G2064] sin[G266] revived[G326] and[G1161] I[G1473] died.[G3588]
10
The commandment which was for life, this I found to be for death;
The[G2532] commandment[G1785] which[G3588] was[G3588] for[G1519] life,[G2222] this[G3778] I[G1473] found[G2147] to[G1519] be[G2532] for[G1519] death;[G2288]
11
for sin, finding occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.
for[G1063] sin,[G266] finding[G1063] occasion[G1223] through[G1223] the[G2532] commandment,[G1785] deceived[G1818] me,[G1473] and[G2532] through[G1223] it[G2532] killed[G615] me.[G1473]
12
Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good.
Therefore[G5620] the[G2532] law[G3551] indeed[G2532] is[G3588] holy,[G40] and[G2532] the[G2532] commandment[G1785] holy,[G40] righteous,[G1342] and[G2532] good.[G3588]
13
Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.
Did[G1096] then[G3767] that[G2443] which[G3588] is[G3588] good[G1223] become[G1096] death[G2288] to[G2443] me?[G1473] May[G2443] it[G1223] never[G3361] be![G1096] But[G3361] sin,[G266] that[G2443] it[G1223] might[G1096] be[G1096] shown[G5316] to[G2443] be[G1096] sin,[G266] was[G1096] producing[G2716] death[G2288] in[G2596] me[G1473] through[G1223] that[G2443] which[G3588] is[G3588] good;[G1223] that[G2443] through[G1223] the[G1223] commandment[G1785] sin[G266] might[G1096] become[G1096] exceedingly[G4056] sinful.[G268]
14
For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.
For[G1063] we[G3754] know[G1492] that[G3754] the[G1161] law[G3551] is[G1510] spiritual,[G4152] but[G1161] I[G1473] am[G1510] fleshly,[G4561] sold[G4097] under[G5259] sin.[G266]
15
For I don’t know what I am doing. For I don’t practice what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.
For[G1063] I[G3739] don’t[G3756] understand[G1097] what[G3739] I[G3739] am[G2309] doing.[G4160] For[G1063] I[G3739] don’t[G3756] practice[G4160] what[G3739] I[G3739] desire[G2309] to[G2309] do;[G4160] but[G1063] what[G3739] I[G3739] hate,[G3404] that[G3739] I[G3739] do.[G4160]
16
But if what I don’t desire, that I do, I consent to the law that it is good.
But[G1161] if[G1487] what[G3739] I[G3739] don’t[G3756] desire,[G2309] that[G3754] I[G3739] do,[G4160] I[G3739] consent[G1962] to[G2309] the[G1161] law[G3551] that[G3754] it[G3754] is[G3588] good.[G2570]
17
So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
So[G1161] now[G1161] it[G1161] is[G3588] no[G3765] more[G3765] I[G1473] that[G3588] do[G2716] it,[G1161] but[G1161] sin[G266] which[G3588] dwells[G3611] in[G1722] me.[G1473]
18
For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.
For[G1063] I[G1473] know[G1492] that[G3754] in[G1722] me,[G1473] that[G3754] is,[G1510] in[G1722] my[G1722] flesh,[G4561] dwells[G3611] no[G3756] good[G2570] thing.[G3778] For[G1063] desire[G2309] is[G1510] present[G3873] with[G1722] me,[G1473] but[G1161] I[G1473] don’t[G3756] find[G2147] it[G3754] doing[G2716] that[G3754] which[G3588] is[G1510] good.[G2570]
19
For the good which I desire, I don’t do; but the evil which I don’t desire, that I practice.
For[G1063] the[G1063] good[G3756] which[G3739] I[G3739] desire,[G2309] I[G3739] don’t[G3756] do;[G4160] but[G1063] the[G1063] evil[G2556] which[G3739] I[G3739] don’t[G3756] desire,[G2309] that[G3739] I[G3739] practice.[G4160]
20
But if what I don’t desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
But[G1161] if[G1487] what[G3739] I[G1473] don’t[G3756] desire,[G2309] that[G3739] I[G1473] do,[G4160] it[G1161] is[G3588] no[G3756] more[G3765] I[G1473] that[G3739] do[G4160] it,[G1161] but[G1161] sin[G266] which[G3739] dwells[G3611] in[G1722] me.[G1473]
21
I find then the law that, to me, while I desire to do good, evil is present.
I[G1473] find[G2147] then[G3754] the[G3588] law[G3551] that,[G3754] while[G3754] I[G1473] desire[G2309] to[G2309] do[G4160] good,[G2570] evil[G2556] is[G3588] present.[G3873]
22
For[G1063] I[G1063] delight[G4913] in[G2596] God’s[G2316] law[G3551] after[G2596] the[G2596] inward[G2080] person,[G444]
23
but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
but[G1161] I[G1473] see[G3708] a[G2532] different[G2087] law[G3551] in[G1722] my[G1722] members,[G3196] warring against[G497] the[G1722] law[G3551] of[G2532] my[G1722] mind,[G3563] and[G2532] bringing[G5342] me[G1473] into[G1722] captivity[G161] under[G1722] the[G1722] law[G3551] of[G2532] sin[G266] which[G3588] is[G1510] in[G1722] my[G1722] members.[G3196]
24
What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
What[G5101] a[G1537] wretched[G5005] man[G3778] I[G1473] am![G1473] Who[G5101] will[G5101] deliver[G4506] me[G1473] out[G1537] of[G1537] the[G1537] body[G4983] of[G1537] this[G3778] death?[G2288]
25
I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord! So then with the mind, I myself serve God’s law, but with the flesh, sin’s law.
I[G1473] thank[G5485] God[G2316] through[G1223] Jesus[G2424] Christ,[G5547] our[G2316] Lord![G2962] So[G3767] then[G3767] with[G1223] the[G1161] mind,[G3563] I[G1473] myself[G1473] serve[G1398] God’s[G2316] law,[G3551] but[G1161] with[G1223] the[G1161] flesh,[G4561] sin’s[G266] law.[G3551]
Chapter 8
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.[1]
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 walk not after the flesh, but after 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.
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.
