NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Romans 8

Deliverance from Bondage

1

Thereforeg686 there is nowg3568 nog3762  acondemnationg2631 for thoseg3588 who are  bin  cChristg5547 Jesusg2424.

2

For  athe lawg3551 of the Spiritg4151 of lifeg2222  1in  bChristg5547 Jesusg2424  chas setg1659 you freeg1659 from the lawg3551 of sing266 and of deathg2288.

3

For  awhatg102 the Lawg3551 couldg102 not do,  1 bweakg770 as it was throughg1223 the fleshg4561, Godg2316 did: sendingg3992 His owng1438 Song5207 in  cthe likenessg3667 of  2sinfulg266 fleshg4561 and as an offering for sing266, He condemnedg2632 sing266 in the fleshg4561,

4

sog2443 that the  arequirementg1345 of the Lawg3551 might be fulfilledg4137 in us, who  bdo not walkg4043 accordingg2596 to the fleshg4561 but accordingg2596 to the Spiritg4151.

5

For thoseg3588 who are accordingg2596 to the fleshg4561 setg5426 their mindsg5426 on  athe things of the fleshg4561, but thoseg3588 who are accordingg2596 to the Spiritg4151,  bthe things of the Spiritg4151.

6

 aFor the mindg5427 setg5427 on the fleshg4561 is  bdeathg2288, but the mindg5427 setg5427 on the Spiritg4151 is lifeg2222 and peaceg1515,

7

becauseg1360 the mindg5427 setg5427 on the fleshg4561 is  ahostileg2189b towardg1519 Godg2316; for it does not subjectg5293 itself to the lawg3551 of Godg2316, for it is not eveng3761 ableg1410 to do so,

8

and thoseg3588 who are  ain the fleshg4561 cannotg1410g3756 pleaseg700 Godg2316.

9

Howeverg1161, you are not  ain the fleshg4561 but in the Spiritg4151, ifg1512 indeedg1512 the Spiritg4151 of Godg2316  bdwellsg3611 in you. But  cifg1487 anyoneg5100 does not haveg2192 the Spiritg4151 of Christg5547, he does not belongg1510 to Him.

10

 aIfg1487 Christg5547 is in you, thoughg3303a the bodyg4983 is deadg3498 becauseg1223 of sing266, yetg1161 the spiritg4151 is  1aliveg2222 becauseg1223 of righteousnessg1343.

11

But ifg1487 the Spiritg4151 of Him who  araisedg1453 Jesusg2424 from the deadg3498 dwellsg3611 in you,  bHe who raisedg1453  cChristg5547 Jesusg2424 from the deadg3498 will alsog2532 giveg2227 lifeg2227 to your mortalg2349 bodiesg4983  1throughg1223 His Spiritg4151 who dwellsg3611 in you.

12

Sog686 theng686, brethreng80, we are underg3781 obligationg3781, not to the fleshg4561, to liveg2198 accordingg2596 to the fleshg4561--

13

for  aifg1487 you are livingg2198 accordingg2596 to the fleshg4561, you  1mustg3195 dieg599; but ifg1487 by the Spiritg4151 you are  bputtingg2289 to deathg2289 the deedsg4234 of the bodyg4983, you will liveg2198.

14

For allg3745 whog3745 are  abeing ledg71 by the Spiritg4151 of Godg2316, theseg3778 are  bsonsg5207 of Godg2316.

15

For you  ahave not receivedg2983 a spiritg4151 of slaveryg1397  1leadingg1519 to fearg5401 againg3825, but you  bhave receivedg2983  2a spiritg4151 of adoptiong5206 as sonsg5206 by whichg3739 we cryg2896 out, " cAbbag5! Fatherg3962!"

16

The Spiritg4151 Himselfg846  atestifiesg4828 with our spiritg4151 that we are  bchildreng5043 of Godg2316,

17

and ifg1487 childreng5043,  aheirsg2818 alsog2532, heirsg2818 of Godg2316 and fellowg4789 heirsg4789 with Christg5547,  bifg1512 indeedg1512 we sufferg4841 with Him sog2443 that we may alsog2532 be glorifiedg4888 with Him.

18

For I considerg3049 that the sufferingsg3804 of thisg3588 presentg3568 timeg2540  aare not worthyg514 to be compared with the  bgloryg1391 that is to be revealedg601 to us.

19

For the  aanxiousg603 longingg603 of the creationg2937 waitsg553 eagerlyg553 for  bthe revealingg602 of the  csonsg5207 of Godg2316.

20

For the creationg2937  awas subjectedg5293 to  bfutilityg3153, not willinglyg1635, but  cbecauseg1223 of Him who subjectedg5293 it,  1in hopeg1680

21

that  athe creationg2937 itselfg846 alsog2532 will be setg1659 freeg1659 from its slaveryg1397 to corruptiong5356 into the freedomg1657 of the gloryg1391 of the childreng5043 of Godg2316.

22

For we knowg3609a that the wholeg3956 creationg2937  agroansg4959 and suffersg4944 the painsg4944 of childbirthg4944 togetherg4959g4944 untilg891 nowg3568.

23

 aAnd not onlyg3440 this, but alsog2532 we ourselvesg846, havingg2192  bthe firstg536 fruitsg536 of the Spiritg4151, eveng2532 we ourselvesg846  cgroang4727 withing1722 ourselvesg1438,  dwaitingg553 eagerlyg553 for our adoptiong5206 as sonsg5206,  ethe redemptiong629 of our bodyg4983.

24

For  ain hopeg1680 we have been savedg4982, but  bhopeg1680 that is seeng991 is not hopeg1680; for whog5100 hopesg1680 for whatg3739 he already seesg991?

25

But  aifg1487 we hopeg1679 for whatg3739 we do not seeg991, with perseveranceg5281 we waitg553 eagerlyg553 for it.

Our Victory in Christ

26

In the sameg5615 wayg5615 the Spiritg4151 alsog2532 helpsg4878 our weaknessg769; for  awe do not knowg3609a howg5101 to prayg4336 as we shouldg1163, but  bthe Spiritg4151 Himselfg846 intercedesg5241 for us with groaningsg4726 toog215 deepg215 for wordsg215;

27

and  aHe who searchesg2045 the heartsg2588 knowsg3609a whatg5101  bthe mindg5427 of the Spiritg4151 is, becauseg3754 He  cintercedesg1793 for the  1saintsg40 accordingg2596 to the will of Godg2316.

28

And we knowg3609a that  1Godg2316 causesg4903  aallg3956 thingsg3956 to workg4903 togetherg4903 for goodg18 to thoseg3588 who loveg25 Godg2316, to thoseg3588 who are  bcalledg2822 accordingg2596 to His purposeg4286.

29

For thoseg3739 whomg3739 He  aforeknewg4267, He alsog2532  bpredestinedg4309 to become  cconformedg4832b to the imageg1504 of His Song5207, sog1519 that He would be the  dfirstborng4416a amongg1722 manyg4183 brethreng80;

30

and theseg3778 whomg3739 He  apredestinedg4309, He alsog2532  bcalledg2564; and theseg3778 whomg3739 He calledg2564, He alsog2532  cjustifiedg1344; and theseg3778 whomg3739 He justifiedg1344, He alsog2532  dglorifiedg1392.

31

 aWhatg5101 theng3767 shall we sayg3004 to theseg3778 thingsg3778?  bIfg1487 Godg2316 is for us, whog5101 is againstg2596 us?

32

He whog3739  adid not spareg5339 His owng2398 Song5207, but  bdeliveredg3860 Him over for us allg3956, howg4459 will He not alsog2532 with Him freelyg5483 giveg5483 us allg3956 thingsg3956?

33

Whog5101 will bringg1458 a chargeg1458 againstg2596  aGod'sg2316 electg1588?  bGodg2316 is the one who justifiesg1344;

34

whog5101 is the one who  acondemnsg2632? Christg5547 Jesusg2424 is He who  bdiedg599, yesg1161, ratherg3123 who was  1 craisedg1453, whog3739 is  dat the rightg1188 handg1188 of Godg2316, whog3739 alsog2532  eintercedesg1793 for us.

35

Whog5101 will separateg5563 us from  athe loveg26 of  1Christg5547? Will  btribulationg2347, org2228 distressg4730, org2228  cpersecutiong1375, org2228  cfamineg3042, org2228  cnakednessg1132, org2228  cperilg2794, org2228 swordg3162?

36

Justg2531a as it is writteng1125, " aFOR YOUR SAKEg1752a WE ARE BEING PUTg2289 TO DEATHg2289 ALLg3650 DAYg2250 LONG; WE WERE CONSIDEREDg3049 AS SHEEPg4263b TO BE SLAUGHTEREDg4967."

37

But in allg3956 theseg3778 thingsg3778 we overwhelminglyg5245  aconquerg5245 throughg1223  bHim who lovedg25 us.

38

For I am convincedg3982 that neitherg3777  adeathg2288, norg3777 lifeg2222, norg3777  bangelsg32a, norg3777 principalitiesg746, norg3777  athingsg1764 presentg1764, norg3777 thingsg3195 to comeg3195, norg3777 powersg1411,

39

norg3777 heightg5313, norg3777 depthg899, norg3777 anyg5100 otherg2087 createdg2937 thingg2937, will be ableg1410 to separateg5563 us from  athe loveg26 of Godg2316, which is  bin Christg5547 Jesusg2424 our Lordg2962.
