Lettera ai Romani 8

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Nihil ergo nunc damnationis est his, qui sunt in Christo Iesu;	1 There is now therefore no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh.
2 lex enimSpiritus vitae in Christo Iesu liberavit te a lege peccati et mortis.	2 For the law of the spirit of life, in Christ Jesus, hath delivered me from the law of sin and of death.
3 Nam,quod impossibile erat legi, in quo infirmabatur per carnem, Deus Filium suummittens in similitudine carnis peccati et pro peccato, damnavit peccatum incarne,	3 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 of sin, hath condemned sin in the flesh;
4 ut iustitia legis impleretur in nobis, qui non secundum carnemambulamus sed secundum Spiritum.	4 That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.
5 Qui enim secundum carnem sunt, quae carnis sunt, sapiunt; qui vero secundumSpiritum, quae sunt Spiritus.	5 For they that are according to the flesh, mind the things that are of the flesh; but they that are according to the spirit, mind the things that are of the spirit.
6 Nam sapientia carnis mors, sapientia autemSpiritus vita et pax;	6 For the wisdom of the flesh is death; but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.
7 quoniam sapientia carnis inimicitia est in Deum, legienim Dei non subicitur nec enim potest.	7 Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither can it be.
8 Qui autem in carne sunt, Deo placerenon possunt.	8 And they who are in the flesh, cannot please God.
9 Vos autem in carne non estis sed in Spiritu, si tamen Spiritus Dei habitat invobis. Si quis autem Spiritum Christi non habet, hic non est eius.	9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 Si autemChristus in vobis est, corpus quidem mortuum est propter peccatum, Spiritus verovita propter iustitiam.	10 And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification.
11 Quod si Spiritus eius, qui suscitavit Iesum amortuis, habitat in vobis, qui suscitavit Christum a mortuis vivificabit etmortalia corpora vestra per inhabitantem Spiritum suum in vobis.	11 And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead, shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Ergo, fratres, debitores sumus non carni, ut secundum carnem vivamus.	12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.
13 Sienim secundum carnem vixeritis, moriemini; si autem Spiritu opera corporismortificatis, vivetis.	13 For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.
14 Quicumque enim Spiritu Dei aguntur, hi filii Dei sunt.	14 For whosoever are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 Non enim accepistis spiritum servitutis iterum in timorem, sed accepistisSpiritum adoptionis filiorum, in quo clamamus: “ Abba, Pater! ”.	15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).
16 IpseSpiritus testimonium reddit una cum spiritu nostro, quod sumus filii Dei.	16 For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons of God.
17 Siautem filii, et heredes: heredes quidem Dei, coheredes autem Christi, si tamencompatimur, ut et conglorificemur.	17 And if sons, heirs also; heirs indeed of God, and joint heirs with Christ: yet so, if we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified with him.
18 Existimo enim quod non sunt condignaepassiones huius temporis ad futuram gloriam, quae revelanda est in nobis.	18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.
19 Nam exspectatio creaturae revelationem filiorum Dei exspectat;	19 For the expectation of the creature waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God.
20 vanitatienim creatura subiecta est, non volens sed propter eum, qui subiecit, in spem,	20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope:
21 quia et ipsa creatura liberabitur a servitute corruptionis in libertatemgloriae filiorum Dei.	21 Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
22 Scimus enim quod omnis creatura congemiscit etcomparturit usque adhuc;	22 For we know that every creature groaneth and travaileth in pain, even till now.
23 non solum autem, sed et nos ipsi primitias Spiritushabentes, et ipsi intra nos gemimus adoptionem filiorum exspectantes,redemptionem corporis nostri.	23 And not only it, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of the sons of God, the redemption of our body.
24 Spe enim salvi facti sumus; spes autem, quaevidetur, non est spes; nam, quod videt, quis sperat?	24 For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for?
25 Si autem, quod nonvidemus, speramus, per patientiam exspectamus.	25 But if we hope for that which we see not, we wait for it with patience.
26 Similiter autem et Spiritus adiuvat infirmitatem nostram; nam quid oremus,sicut oportet, nescimus, sed ipse Spiritus interpellat gemitibusinenarrabilibus;	26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit himself asketh for us with unspeakable groanings.
27 qui autem scrutatur corda, scit quid desideret Spiritus,quia secundum Deum postulat pro sanctis.	27 And he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what the Spirit desireth; because he asketh for the saints according to God.
28 Scimus autem quoniam diligentibus Deum omnia cooperantur in bonum, his, quisecundum propositum vocati sunt.	28 And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.
29 Nam, quos praescivit, et praedestinavitconformes fieri imaginis Filii eius, ut sit ipse primogenitus in multisfratribus;	29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.
30 quos autem praedestinavit, hos et vocavit; et quos vocavit, hos etiustificavit; quos autem iustificavit, illos et glorificavit.	30 And whom he predestinated, them he also called. And whom he called, them he also justified. And whom he justified, them he also glorified.
31 Quid ergo dicemus ad haec? Si Deus pro nobis, quis contra nos?	31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?
32 Qui Filiosuo non pepercit, sed pro nobis omnibus tradidit illum, quomodo non etiam cumillo omnia nobis donabit?	32 He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things?
33 Quis accusabit adversus electos Dei? Deus, quiiustificat?	33 Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God that justifieth.
34 Quis est qui condemnet? Christus Iesus, qui mortuus est, immo quisuscitatus est, qui et est ad dexteram Dei, qui etiam interpellat pro nobis?	34 Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died, yea that is risen also again; who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Quis nos separabit a caritate Christi? Tribulatio an angustia an persecutioan fames an nuditas an periculum an gladius?	35 Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?
36 Sicut scriptum est: “ Propter te mortificamur tota die, aestimati sumus ut oves occisionis ”.	36 (As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)
37 Sed in his omnibus supervincimus per eum, qui dilexit nos.	37 But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.
38 Certus sum enim quia neque mors neque vita neque angeli neque principatusneque instantia neque futura neque virtutes	38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,
39 neque altitudo neque profundumneque alia quaelibet creatura poterit nos separare a caritate Dei, quae est inChristo Iesu Domino nostro.	39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
