For if we have been joined together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection;

For he who died has been justified from sin.

For in that He died, He died to sin once; but in that He lives, He lives to God.

For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under Law, but under grace.

Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves as slaves for obedience, you are slaves to him whom you obey; whether it is of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness.

But thanks be to our God that you were the slaves of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered.

I speak in the manner of men because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you have yielded your members as slaves to uncleanness, and to lawless act unto lawless act, even so now yield your members as slaves to righteousness unto holiness.

For when you were the slaves of sin, you were free from righteousness.

What fruit did you have then in those things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Or are you ignorant, brothers; for I speak to those who know the Law; that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives?

For the married woman was bound by law to the living husband. But if the husband is dead, she is set free from the law of her husband.

For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sin worked in our members through the law to bring forth fruit to death.

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Let it not be said! But I did not know sin except through the law. For also I did not know lust except the law said, You shall not lust.

But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, worked in me all kinds of lust. For apart from law sin was dead.

For I was alive without the law once. But when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.

For that which I do, I know not. For what I desire, that I do not do; but what I hate, that I do.

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwells no good thing. For to will is present with me, but how to perform that which is good I do not find.

For I do not do the good that I desire; but the evil which I do not will, that I do.

For I delight in the Law of God according to the inward man;

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh;

For they who are according to the flesh mind the things of flesh, but they who are according to the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace

because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the Law of God, neither indeed can it be.

For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die. But if you through the Spirit mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption by which we cry, Abba, Father!

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the coming glory to be revealed in us.

For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the manifestation of the sons of God.

For the creation was not willingly subjected to vanity, but because of Him who subjected it on hope

For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen is not hope; for what anyone sees, why does he also hope for it?

But if we hope for that which we do not see, then we wait for it with patience.

Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

And He searching the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

For whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, for Him to be the First-born among many brothers.

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Truly He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

Who is he condemning? It is Christ who has died, but rather also who is raised, who is also at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.

As it is written, "For Your sake we are killed all the day long. We are counted as sheep of slaughter."

For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

For I myself was wishing to be accursed from Christ for my brothers, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

Not however that the Word of God has failed, for not all those of Israel are Israel;

That is, not the children of the flesh are children of God; but the children of the promise are counted for a seed.

For this is the word of promise: "At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son."

(for the children had not yet been born, neither had done any good or evil; but that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who called,)

For He said to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion."

For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "Even for this same purpose I have raised you up, that I might show My power in you, and that My name might be declared throughout all the earth."

You will then say to me, Why does He yet find fault? For who has resisted His will?

For He is bringing the matter to an end, and cutting short in righteousness, because the Lord will make a short work on the earth."

Why? Because it was not of faith, but as it were by the works of the Law. For they stumbled at that Stumbling-stone;

Brothers, truly my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is for it to be saved.

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

For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes.

For Moses writes of the righteousness which is of the Law, "The man who does those things shall live by them."

For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses unto salvation.

For the Scripture says, "Everyone believing on Him shall not be put to shame."

For there is no difference both of Jew and of Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call on Him.

For everyone, "whoever shall call on the name of the Lord will be saved."

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?"

I say then, Did not God put away His people? Let it not be said! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

And David said, "Let their table become for a snare and a trap and a stumbling block and a recompense to them.

For I speak to you, the nations; since I am the apostle of the nations, I glorify my ministry;

For if their casting away is the reconciling of the world, what is the reception except life from the dead?

For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, also the branches.

For if God did not spare the natural branches, fear lest He also may not spare you either!

And those also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in. For God is able to graft them in again.

For if you were cut out of the natural wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree; how much more these being according to nature will be grafted into their own olive-tree?

For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, lest you should be wise within yourselves; that blindness in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the nations has comes in.

For this is My covenant with them, when I have taken away their sins."

Indeed as regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes. But as regards the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

For the free gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

For as you also then disbelieved God, but now have been shown mercy through their disbelief,

For God has shut up all in unbelief, so that He might show mercy to all.

For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who became His counselor?

For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things; to Him be glory forever! Amen.

For I say, through the grace given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think. But set your mind to be right-minded, even as God has dealt to every man the measure of faith.

For even as we have many members in one body, and all members do not have the same function,

Repay no one evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

not avenging yourselves, beloved, but giving place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

Therefore if your enemy hungers, feed him. If he thirsts, give him drink. For in so doing you shall heap coals of fire on his head.

Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities. For there is no authority but of God; the authorities that exist are ordained by God.

For the rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the bad. And do you desire to be not afraid of the authority? Do the good, and you shall have praise from it.

For it is a servant of God to you for good. For if you practice evil, be afraid, for it does not bear the sword in vain; for it is a servant of God, a revenger for wrath on him who does evil.

Therefore you must be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience' sake.

For because of this you also pay taxes. For they are God's servants, always giving attention to this very thing.

Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves another has fulfilled the Law.

For: "Do not commit adultery; do not murder; do not steal; do not bear false witness; do not lust;" and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

This also, knowing the time, that it is already time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we believed.

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not take thought beforehand for the lusts of the flesh.

For indeed one believes to eat all things; but being weak, another eats vegetables.

Do not let him who eats despise him who does not eat; and do not let him who does not eat judge him who eats, for God has received him.

Who are you that judges another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. But he will stand, for God is able to make him stand.

He who regards the day regards it to the Lord; and he not regarding the day, does not regard it to the Lord. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, does not eat to the Lord, and gives God thanks.

For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.

For both if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore both if we live, and if we die, we are the Lord's.

For this Christ both died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord both of the dead and living.
