Paul's letter explaining salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and the importance of living a holy life.

Chapter 8

KJV: There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Geneva: Now then there is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Iesus, which walke not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

KJV: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

Geneva: For the Lawe of the Spirite of life, which is in Christ Iesus, hath freed mee from the lawe of sinne and of death.

KJV: 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:

Geneva: For (that that was impossible to ye Lawe, in as much as it was weake, because of ye flesh) God sending his owne Sonne, in ye similitude of sinful flesh, & for sinne, condened sinne in the flesh,

KJV: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Geneva: That that righteousnes of the Law might be fulfilled in vs, which walke not after ye flesh, but after the Spirit.

KJV: For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

Geneva: For they that are after the flesh, sauour the things of the flesh: but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

KJV: For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Geneva: For the wisedome of the flesh is death: but the wisedome of the Spirit is life and peace,

KJV: Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

Geneva: Because the wisedome of the flesh is enimitie against God: for it is not subiect to the Lawe of God, neither in deede can be.

KJV: So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

Geneva: So then they that are in the flesh, can not please God.

KJV: But ye 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.

Geneva: Now ye are not in the flesh, but in ye Spirit, because ye spirit of God dwelleth in you: but if any man hath not ye Spirit of Christ, ye same is not his.

KJV: And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

Geneva: And if Christ bee in you, the body is dead, because of sinne: but the Spirite is life for righteousnesse sake.

KJV: But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Geneva: But if the Spirit of him that raised vp Iesus from the dead, dwell in you, he that raised vp Christ from the dead, shall also quicken your mortall bodies, by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

KJV: Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

Geneva: Therefore brethren, wee are detters not to the flesh, to liue after the flesh:

KJV: For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

Geneva: For if ye liue after the flesh, ye shall die: but if yee mortifie the deedes of the body by the Spirit, ye shall liue.

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

Geneva: For as many as are ledde by the Spirit of God, they are the sonnes of God.

KJV: For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Geneva: For ye haue not receiued the Spirit of bodage, to feare againe: but ye haue receiued the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry Abba, Father.

KJV: The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

Geneva: The same Spirit beareth witnesse with our spirit, that we are the children of God.

KJV: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

Geneva: If we be children, we are also heires, euen the heires of God, and heires annexed with Christ: if so be that we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.

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

Geneva: For I count that the afflictions of this present time are not worthy of the glory, which shalbe shewed vnto vs.

KJV: For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

Geneva: For the feruent desire of the creature waiteth when the sonnes of God shalbe reueiled,

KJV: For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

Geneva: Because the creature is subiect to vanitie, not of it owne will, but by reason of him, which hath subdued it vnder hope,

KJV: Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Geneva: Because the creature also shall be deliuered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious libertie of the sonnes of God.

KJV: For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

Geneva: For we knowe that euery creature groneth with vs also, and trauaileth in paine together vnto this present.

KJV: And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

Geneva: And not onely the creature, but we also which haue the first fruites of the Spirit, euen we doe sigh in our selues, waiting for the adoption, euen the redemption of our body.

KJV: For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

Geneva: For we are saued by hope: but hope that is seene, is not hope: for how can a man hope for that which he seeth?

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

Geneva: But if we hope for that we see not, we doe with patience abide for it.

KJV: Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

Geneva: Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we knowe not what to pray as wee ought: but the Spirit it selfe maketh request for vs with sighs, which cannot be expressed.

KJV: And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

Geneva: But he that searcheth the heartes, knoweth what is the meaning of the Spirit: for he maketh request for ye Saints, according to the wil of God.

KJV: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Geneva: Also we knowe that all thinges worke together for the best vnto them that loue God, euen to them that are called of his purpose.

KJV: For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Geneva: For those which hee knewe before, he also predestinate to bee made like to the image of his Sonne, that hee might be the first borne among many brethren.

KJV: Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

Geneva: Moreouer whom he predestinate, them also he called, & whom he called, them also he iustified, & whom he iustified, them he also glorified.

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

Geneva: What shall we then say to these thinges? If God be on our side, who can be against vs?

KJV: He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Geneva: Who spared not his owne Sonne, but gaue him for vs all to death, how shall he not with him giue vs all things also?

KJV: Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth.

Geneva: Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods chosen? it is God that iustifieth,

KJV: Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

Geneva: Who shall condemne? it is Christ which is dead, yea, or rather, which is risen againe, who is also at the right hand of God, and maketh request also for vs.

KJV: Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Geneva: Who shall separate vs from the loue of Christ? shall tribulation or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakednesse, or perill, or sworde?

KJV: As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Geneva: As it is written, For thy sake are we killed all day long: we are counted as sheepe for the slaughter.

KJV: Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Geneva: Neuerthelesse, in all these thinges we are more then coquerours through him that loued vs.

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

Geneva: For I am perswaded that neither death, nor life, nor Angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

KJV: 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.

Geneva: Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shalbe able to separate vs from the loue of God, which is in Christ Iesus our Lord.
