For not by the law, the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, for him to be heir of the world, but by the justice of faith.

Therefore of faith, that according to grace; the promise to be firm to all the seed; not to that of the law only, but also to that of the faith of Abraham; who is father of us all,

(As it has been written, That have set thee father of many nations,) over against him who believed God, making alive the dead, and calling things not being as being.

And not having been weak in faith, he observed not his own body already having been dead, being about a hundred years, and the death of Sarah's womb:

And for the promise of God he was not separated by unbelief; but was strengthened in faith, having given glory to God;

And it was not written for him alone, that it was reckoned to him;

And not only, but also we boast in affliction: knowing that affliction works perseverance;

And hope shames not; for the love of God has been poured in our hearts by the Holy Spirit given us.

And not only, but also boasting in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received reconciliation.

(For until the law sin was in the world: and sin is not charged, being no law.

But death reigned from Adam to Moses, and upon them not having sinned upon the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is the type of him about to be.

But not as the fall, so also the favor. For if for the fall of one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift in grace, of one man, Jesus Christ, has abounded to many.

And not as by one having sinned, the gift: for truly the judgment of one to condemnation, but the favor of many falls to justification.

It may not be. We who died to sin, shall we yet live in it?

Or know ye not, that as many of us as were immersed in Christ Jesus, we were immersed into his death?

Therefore let not sin reign in your mortal body, to listen to it in its passions.

For sin shall not rule over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace It may not be.

Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves servants for obedience, ye are servants to whom ye listen; either of sin to death, or of obedience to justice?

Know ye not brethren, (for I speak to them knowing law,) that law rules over man as much time as he lives?

Wherefore, the husband living, she shall be called adulteress if she be to another man: but if the man die, she is free from the law; not to be an adulteress, being to another man.

Therefore, my brethren, ye also were dead to the law by the body of Christ; for you not to be to another, but to him raised from the dead, that we bring forth fruit to God.

And now we were left inactive from the law, having died in what we were held; so that we serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

What then shall we say? The law sin? It may not be. But I knew not sin except by the law: for I knew not lust, if the law said not, Thou shalt not eagerly desire.

Was then good death to me? It may not be. But sin, that it might appear sin, by the good working death in me; that sin might be sinful to excess by the command.

For what I work I know not: for what I would not, this I do; but what I hate, this I do.

And if what I would not this I do, I consent to the law that it is good.

For I know that in me dwells no good, (that is, in my flesh:) for to will lies near me; but to work good I find not.

For not what good I would, do I; but the evil I would not, this I do.

And if what I would not, this I do, I no more work it, but sin dwelling in me.

Therefore now no condemnation to them in Christ Jesus, walking not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

That the justification of the law be filled up in us, not walking according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

Wherefore the thought of the flesh enmity to God: for it is not subject to the law of God, for it cannot be.

But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwell in you. And if any have not the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

Therefore, brethren, we are not debtors to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

For ye have not received the Spirit of servitude again for fear; but have received the Spirit of adoption as a son, in which we cry, Abba, Father.

For I reckon that the sufferings of the time now not worthy of the glory about to be revealed in us.

For the creation was subject to vanity, not voluntarily, but by him having subjected in hope,

And not only, but also they having the first fruits of the Spirit, and we ourselves groan in ourselves, waiting for the adoption as a son, the redemption of our body.

For by hope were we saved: but hope being seen is not hope: for what any one sees, why does he also hope?

And if what we see not, we hope for, by patience we wait.

And likewise also the Spirit takes hold together, and assists our weaknesses: for what we would pray for as we ought, we know not, but the Spirit itself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings.

Who truly spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, and how not with him will he freely give us all?

I Speak truth in Christ, I lie not, my consciousness bearing witness to me in the Holy Spirit,

And not as that the word of God has fallen through. For not they all of Israel, they which of Israel:

That is, The children of the flesh, these not the children of God: but the children of the solemn promise are reckoned for seed.

And not only; but also Rebecca, having coition of one, Isaac our father;

(For not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that according to choice the purpose of God might remain, not of works, but of him calling;)

What then shall we say Is injustice with God? It may not be.

Surely then, not of him Willing, nor of him running, but of God commiserating.

Or has not the potter power over the clay, of the same mixture truly to make one vessel for honour, and one for dishonour

Whom he also called us, not only from the Jews, but also of the nations?

As also he says in Hosea, I will call not my people my people; and the not loved, loved.

And it shall be, in the place where it was said to them, Ye not my people; there shall they be called the sons of the living God.

What then shall we say? That the nations, not following justice, overtook justice, and the justice of faith.

And Israel following the law of justice, reached not the law of justice.

Wherefore? Because not of faith, but as of the works of the law. For they stumbled at the stumblingstone;

As has been written, Behold I set in Zion a stone of stumbling and rock of offence: and every one believing on him shall not be ashamed.

For I testify for them that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

For not knowing the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own justice, they have not been subjected to the justice of God.

And the justice of faith says thus, Thou shouldest not say in thy heart, Who shall go up to heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down:)

For the writing says, Every one believing upon him shall not be ashamed.

How then shall they call upon whom they believed not? and how shall they believe whom they heard not? and how shall they hear without him proclaiming?

But not all listened to the good news. For Esaias says, Lord, who believed our report?

But I say, Have they not heard? Surely, in all the earth went out their sound, and their words to the end of the habitable globe.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses says, I will make you jealous of not a nation, and by a shortsighted nation will I anger you.

And Esaias is very confident, and says, I was found of them not seeking me; I was manifested to them not asking for me.

I say then, Has God rejected his people It may not be. For I also am an Israelite, of Abraham's seed, of the tribe of Benjamin.

God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Or know ye not in Elias, what says the writing? how he addresses God against Israel, saying,

But what say to him the intimations of divine will I have left to myself seven thousand men, who bent not the knee to Baal.

What then What Israel seeks for, this be attained not; but the selection attained, and the rest were hardened.

(As has been written, God gave them the spirit of mortal pain, eyes not to see, and earn not to hear;) even to this day.

Let their eyes be darkened not to see, and let them bend their back always.

I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? It may not be: but by their fall salvation to the nations, to make them jealous.

Act not proudly to the young shoots. And if thou boastest, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

Well; for unbelief were they broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but do thou fear:

For if God spared not the young shoots according to nature, how will he either spare thee

And they also, if they continue not in unbelief, shall be grafted in:for God is able to graft them in again.

For I will not ye should not know, brethren, this mystery, lest ye be wise with yourselves; for hardness from part has been to Israel, till the filling up of the nations come in.

For the favors and calling of God not causing repentance.

O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! his judgments how unsearchable, and his ways not traced out!

And be ye not conformed to this life, but be transformed by the renovation of your mind, for you to prove what the good, and the pleasing, and the perfected will of God.

For I say, by the race given me, to every one being with you, not to entertain a high opinion of one's self above what is fitting to think: but to think to be discreet, as God has divided the measure of faith to each.

For as in one body we have many members, and all members have not the same action:

In study not slothful; boiling in the spirit; serving the Lord;

Praise them driving you out: praise ye, and curse not.

Thinking the same towards one another. Not thinking high things but being led by humble things. Be not wise with yourselves.

Avenging not yourselves, beloved, but give ye place to anger: for it has been written, Vengeance to me; I will repay, says the Lord.

Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

For rulers are not the terror of good works, but of evil. And wilt thou not fear the power do good, and thou shalt have approbation of it:

For he is servant of God to thee for good. And if thou do evil, be afraid; for he bears not the sword without order: for he is servant of God, avenging for anger to him doing evil.

Wherefore necessity to be placed under, not only for anger, but also for consciousness.

For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal Thou shalt not bear false testimony, Thou shalt not covet; and if any other command in this word it is summed up, in it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

The night has advanced, and the day has drawn near: therefore let us lay down the works of darkness, and put on the weapons of light.

As in the day, let us walk becomingly; not in revelries and drunkenness, not in coition and licentiousness, not in strife and envy.

But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not consideration for the flesh, for the passions.

Him being weak in faith receive ye, not to judgments of conversations.

Let not him eating despise him not eating: and let not him not eating judge him eating: for God has received him.

He minding the day, minds to the Lord; and he not minding the day, to the Lord he minds not. He eating, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he not eating, to the Lord he eats not, and he gives thanks to God.

Then let us no more judge one another: but rather judge ye this, not to put a stumble or offence to thy brother.
