5 Kurie gyvena pagal kūną, tie mąsto kūniškai, o kurie gyvena pagal Dvasiądvasiškai.

6 Kūniškas mąstymastai mirtis, o dvasiškasgyvenimas ir ramybė.

7 Kūniškas mąstymas priešiškas Dievui; jis nepaklūsta Dievo įstatymui ir net negali paklusti.

8 Ir todėl gyvenantys pagal kūną negali patikti Dievui.

9 Tačiau jūs negyvenate pagal kūną, bet pagal Dvasią, jei tik Dievo Dvasia gyvena jumyse. O kas neturi Kristaus Dvasios, tas nėra Jo.

10 Jeigu Kristus yra jumyse, tai kūnas yra miręs dėl nuodėmės, bet dvasiagyva dėl teisumo.

11 Jei jumyse gyvena Dvasia To, kuris Jėzų prikėlė iš numirusių, tai Jisprikėlęs iš numirusių Kristųatgaivins ir jūsų mirtingus kūnus savo Dvasia, gyvenančia jumyse.

12 Taigi, broliai, mes nesame skolingi kūnui, kad gyventume pagal kūną.

13 Jei jūs gyvenate pagal kūną mirsite. Bet jei dvasia marinate kūniškus darbusgyvensite.

14 Visi, vedami Dievo Dvasios, yra Dievo vaikai.

15 Jūs gi gavote ne vergystės dvasią, kad vėl bijotumėte, bet gavote įsūnystės Dvasią, kuria šaukiame: "Aba, Tėve!"

16 Pati Dvasia liudija mūsų dvasiai, kad esame Dievo vaikai.

17 O jei esame vaikai, tai ir paveldėtojai. Dievo paveldėtojai ir Kristaus bendrapaveldėtojai, jeigu tik su Juo kenčiame, kad su Juo būtume pašlovinti.

5 For those who are living in the way of the flesh give their minds to the things of the flesh, but those who go in the way of the Spirit, to the things of the Spirit.

6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:

7 Because the mind of the flesh is opposite to God; it is not under the law of God, and is not able to be:

8 So that those who are in the flesh are not able to give pleasure to God.

9 You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God is in you. But if any man has not the Spirit of Christ he is not one of his.

10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

11 But if the Spirit of him who made Jesus come again from the dead is in you, he who made Christ Jesus come again from the dead will in the same way, through his Spirit which is in you, give life to your bodies which now are under the power of death.

12 So then, my brothers, we are in debt, not to the flesh to be living in the way of the flesh:

13 For if you go in the way of the flesh, death will come on you; but if by the Spirit you put to death the works of the body, you will have life.

14 And all those who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

15 For you did not get the spirit of servants again to put you in fear, but the spirit of sons was given to you, by which we say, Abba, Father.

16 The Spirit is witness with our spirit that we are children of God:

17 And if we are children, we have a right to a part in the heritage; a part in the things of God, together with Christ; so that if we have a part in his pain, we will in the same way have a part in his glory.
