Romans 8:2-8

Rotherham(i) 2 For, the–law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, hath set thee free from the law of sin and of death; –– 3 For, what was impossible by the law in that it was weak through the flesh, God, by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh, 4 In order that, the righteous requirement of the law, might be fulfilled in us––who, not according to flesh, do walk, but according to spirit; 5 For, they who according to flesh have their being, the things of the flesh do prefer, but, they according to the spirit, the things of the spirit; 6 For, what is preferred by the flesh, [is] death, whereas, what is preferred by the spirit, [is] life and peace; –– 7 Inasmuch as, what is preferred by the flesh, [is] hostile towards God, for, unto the law of God, it doth not submit itself, neither in fact can it.–– 8 They, moreover, who in flesh have their being, cannot please, God.
