Romans 8

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Hence, now there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.	1 Nihil ergo nunc damnationis est iis qui sunt in Christo Jesu : qui non secundum carnem ambulant.
2 For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has freed you from the law of sin and death.	2 Lex enim spiritus vitæ in Christo Jesu liberavit me a lege peccati et mortis.
3 For what the law, weakened by the flesh, was powerless to do, this God has done: by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for the sake of sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,	3 Nam quod impossibile erat legi, in quo infirmabatur per carnem : Deus Filium suum mittens in similitudinem carnis peccati et de peccato, damnavit peccatum in carne,
4 so that the righteous decree of the law might be fulfilled in us, who live not according to the flesh but according to the spirit.	4 ut justificatio legis impleretur in nobis, qui non secundum carnem ambulamus, sed secundum spiritum.
5 For those who live according to the flesh are concerned with the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the spirit with the things of the spirit.	5 Qui enim secundum carnem sunt, quæ carnis sunt, sapiunt : qui vero secundum spiritum sunt, quæ sunt spiritus, sentiunt.
6 The concern of the flesh is death, but the concern of the spirit is life and peace.	6 Nam prudentia carnis, mors est : prudentia autem spiritus, vita et pax :
7 For the concern of the flesh is hostility toward God; it does not submit to the law of God, nor can it;	7 quoniam sapientia carnis inimica est Deo : legi enim Dei non est subjecta, nec enim potest.
8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.	8 Qui autem in carne sunt, Deo placere non possunt.
9 But you are not in the flesh; on the contrary, you are in the spirit, if only the Spirit of God dwells in you. Whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.	9 Vos autem in carne non estis, sed in spiritu : si tamen Spiritus Dei habitat in vobis. Si quis autem Spiritum Christi non habet, hic non est ejus.
10 But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the spirit is alive because of righteousness.	10 Si autem Christus in vobis est, corpus quidem mortuum est propter peccatum, spiritus vero vivit propter justificationem.
11 If the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also, through his Spirit that dwells in you.	11 Quod si Spiritus ejus, qui suscitavit Jesum a mortuis, habitat in vobis : qui suscitavit Jesum Christum a mortuis, vivificabit et mortalia corpora vestra, propter inhabitantem Spiritum ejus in vobis.
12 Consequently, brothers, we are not debtors to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.	12 Ergo fratres, debitores sumus non carni, ut secundum carnem vivamus.
13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die, but if by the spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.	13 Si enim secundum carnem vixeritis, moriemini : si autem spiritu facta carnis mortificaveritis, vivetis.
14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.	14 Quicumque enim Spiritu Dei aguntur, ii sunt filii Dei.
15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a spirit of adoption, through which we cry, "Abba, Father!"	15 Non enim accepistis spiritum servitutis iterum in timore, sed accepistis spiritum adoptionis filiorum, in quo clamamus : Abba (Pater).
16 The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,	16 Ipse enim Spiritus testimonium reddit spiritui nostro quod sumus filii Dei.
17 and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if only we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.	17 Si autem filii, et hæredes : hæredes, quidem Dei, cohæredes autem Christi : si tamen compatimur ut et conglorificemur.
18 I consider that the sufferings of this present time are as nothing compared with the glory to be revealed for us.	18 Existimo enim quod non sunt condignæ passiones hujus temporis ad futuram gloriam, quæ revelabitur in nobis.
19 For creation awaits with eager expectation the revelation of the children of God;	19 Nam exspectatio creaturæ revelationem filiorum Dei exspectat.
20 for creation was made subject to futility, not of its own accord but because of the one who subjected it, in hope	20 Vanitati enim creatura subjecta est non volens, sed propter eum, qui subjecit eam in spe :
21 that creation itself would be set free from slavery to corruption and share in the glorious freedom of the children of God.	21 quia et ipsa creatura liberabitur a servitute corruptionis in libertatem gloriæ filiorum Dei.
22 We know that all creation is groaning in labor pains even until now;	22 Scimus enim quod omnis creatura ingemiscit, et parturit usque adhuc.
23 and not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, we also groan within ourselves as we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.	23 Non solum autem illa, sed et nos ipsi primitias spiritus habentes : et ipsi intra nos gemimus adoptionem filiorum Dei exspectantes, redemptionem corporis nostri.
24 For in hope we were saved. Now hope that sees for itself is not hope. For who hopes for what one sees?	24 Spe enim salvi facti sumus. Spes autem, quæ videtur, non est spes : nam quod videt quis, quid sperat ?
25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait with endurance.	25 Si autem quod non videmus, speramus : per patientiam exspectamus.
26 In the same way, the Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes with inexpressible groanings.	26 Similiter autem et Spiritus adjuvat infirmitatem nostram : nam quid oremus, sicut oportet, nescimus : sed ipse Spiritus postulat pro nobis gemitibus inenarrabilibus.
27 And the one who searches hearts knows what is the intention of the Spirit, because it intercedes for the holy ones according to God's will.	27 Qui autem scrutatur corda, scit quid desideret Spiritus : quia secundum Deum postulat pro sanctis.
28 We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.	28 Scimus autem quoniam diligentibus Deum omnia cooperantur in bonum, iis qui secundum propositum vocati sunt sancti.
29 For those he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.	29 Nam quos præscivit, et prædestinavit conformes fieri imaginis Filii sui, ut sit ipse primogenitus in multis fratribus.
30 And those he predestined he also called; and those he called he also justified; and those he justified he also glorified.	30 Quos autem prædestinavit, hos et vocavit : et quos vocavit, hos et justificavit : quos autem justificavit, illos et glorificavit.
31 What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?	31 Quid ergo dicemus ad hæc ? si Deus pro nobis, quis contra nos ?
32 He who did not spare his own Son but handed him over for us all, how will he not also give us everything else along with him?	32 Qui etiam proprio Filio suo non pepercit, sed pro nobis omnibus tradidit illum : quomodo non etiam cum illo omnia nobis donavit ?
33 Who will bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who acquits us.	33 Quis accusabit adversus electos Dei ? Deus qui justificat,
34 Who will condemn? It is Christ (Jesus) who died, rather, was raised, who also is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us.	34 quis est qui condemnet ? Christus Jesus, qui mortuus est, immo qui et resurrexit, qui est ad dexteram Dei, qui etiam interpellat pro nobis.
35 What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?	35 Quis ergo nos separabit a caritate Christi ? tribulatio ? an angustia ? an fames ? an nuditas ? an periculum ? an persecutio ? an gladius ?
36 As it is written: "For your sake we are being slain all the day; we are looked upon as sheep to be slaughtered."	36 (Sicut scriptum est : Quia propter te mortificamur tota die : æstimati sumus sicut oves occisionis.)
37 No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us.	37 Sed in his omnibus superamus propter eum qui dilexit nos.
38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers,	38 Certus sum enim quia neque mors, neque vita, neque angeli, neque principatus, neque virtutes, neque instantia, neque futura, neque fortitudo,
39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.	39 neque altitudo, neque profundum, neque creatura alia poterit nos separare a caritate Dei, quæ est in Christo Jesu Domino nostro.
