Romans 8

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 For this cause those who are in Christ Jesus will not be judged as sinners.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For what the law was not able to do because it was feeble through the flesh, God, sending his Son in the image of the evil flesh, and as an offering for sin, gave his decision against sin in the flesh:

4 So that what was ordered by the law might be done in us, who are living, not in the way of the flesh, but in the way of the Spirit.

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.

18 I am of the opinion that there is no comparison between the pain of this present time and the glory which we will see in the future.

19 For the strong desire of every living thing is waiting for the revelation of the sons of God.

20 For every living thing was put under the power of change, not by its desire, but by him who made it so, in hope

21 That all living things will be made free from the power of death and will have a part with the free children of God in glory.

22 For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.

23 And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.

24 For our salvation is by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for who is hoping for what he sees?

25 But if we have hope for that which we see not, then we will be able to go on waiting for it.

26 And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say;

27 And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.

28 And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.

29 Because those of whom he had knowledge before they came into existence, were marked out by him to be made like his Son, so that he might be the first among a band of brothers:

30 And those who were marked out by him were named; and those who were named were given righteousness; and to those to whom he gave righteousness, in the same way he gave glory.

31 What may we say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?

32 He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things?

33 Who will say anything against the saints of God? It is God who makes us clear from evil;

34 Who will give a decision against us? It is Christ Jesus who not only was put to death, but came again from the dead, who is now at the right hand of God, taking our part.

35 Who will come between us and the love of Christ? Will trouble, or pain, or cruel acts, or the need of food or of clothing, or danger, or the sword?

36 As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.

37 But we are able to overcome all these things and more through his love.

38 For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers,

39 Or things on high, or things under the earth, or anything which is made, will be able to come between us and the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 Therefore, now there is no gezar din (verdict) of ashem (guilty), no harsha’ah (condemnation as guilty) for those in Moshiach Yehoshua (cf. Ro 5:18).

2 For the Torah of the Ruach HaKodesh that gives Chayyim in Moshiach Yehoshua [YIRMEYAH 31:31-34; YECHEZKEL 36:26-27] has set you free from the Chok of Chet and Mavet.

3 For what the Torah was unable to do in that it was weak through the basar (fallen human nature under Chet Kadmon and without hitkhadshut renewal and regeneration by the Ruach Hakodesh), G-d sent his own Ben HaElohim [Moshiach] in the very demut (likeness) of the basar of sinful humanity and as a chattat (sin offering, sin atoning sacrifice, 2C 5:21) and both pronounced and effected a sentence of death on HaChet baBasar (Sin in the Flesh, in the fallen old humanity)

4 In order that the maleh chukat haTorah (the full statute requirement of the Torah, see VAYIKRA 18:5) might be fulfilled in us whose halakhah is in the Derech [HaChayyim] (the Way of Life) according to the Ruach Hakodesh and not in accordance with the basar.

5 For those who exist in terms of the basar take the side of the basar, whereas those who exist in terms of the Ruach [Hakodesh] take the side of the Ruach Hakodesh.

6 For the way of thinking of the basar is mavet (death), whereas the way of thinking of the Ruach Hakodesh is Chayyim and Shalom.

7 Because the way of thinking of the basar is hostility, eyvah (enmity BERESHIS 3:15) toward G-d, for it does not submit itself to the Torah of G-d; for it cannot.

8 And those who are in the basar are not able to please Hashem.

9 However, you are not in the basar [i.e., unregenerate] but in the Ruach Hakodesh, assuming that the Ruach Hakodesh of Hashem does indeed dwell in you—if anyone does not have the Ruach HaMoshiach, that person does not belong to Moshiach.

10 And if Moshiach is in you, the body (of the basar) is dead because of sin [5:12] but the Ruach [Hakodesh] is life for you because of Tzedek (righteousness [cf. Ro 5:18].

11 But if the Ruach Hakodesh of Him who gave Yehoshua Techiyah (Resurrection) from the Mesim dwells in you, He who raised Moshiach from the Mesim will give Chayyim to your mortal bodies as well, through His indwelling Ruach Hakodesh in you.

12 So then, Achim b’Moshiach, we are under no obligation to the basar to live in accordance with the basar.

13 For if you live in accordance with the basar (old fallen humanity under slave master Chet Kadmon) you will certainly die; but if by the Ruach Hakodesh you put to death the [shameful] acts of the body, you will live.

14 For as many as are led by the Ruach HaElohim, they are bnei HaElohim.

15 For you did not receive a spirit of avdut, falling back into pachad (fear); but you received the Ruach of Mishpat HaBanim (Adoption), having Ma’amad HaBanim (the standing as Sons [9:4]), by which we cry, "Abba, Avinu"!

16 The Ruach Hakodesh himself bears eidus (witness) with our [regenerate, Yn 3:6] ruach that we are bnei HaElohim.

17 And if bnei HaElohim, then also yoreshim (heirs) of G-d and co-heirs (Ro 4:13) together with Moshiach, provided that we suffer with him in order that we might also be set in kavod (glory, eschatological glorification) with him.

18 For I reckon that the yisurim (suffering) of zman hazeh (of this present time) are not to be compared with the coming kavod (glory) to be revealed in us.

19 For the eager expectation of HaBri’ah (the Creation) awaits the heavenly hisgalus (revelation, unveiling) of the bnei HaElohim.

20 For HaBri’ah (the Creation) was subjected to hevel (futility), not willingly, but on account of Him who subjected it, in tikvah (hope),

21 Because HaBri’ah also itself will be set free from the avdut (slavery) of corruption into the deror (freedom YESHAYAH 61:1) of the kavod (glory) of the bnei HaElohim.

22 For we have da’as that the whole Bri’ah groans and suffers the chevlei leydah (pangs of childbirth) until now.

23 And not only so, but also we ourselves who have the bikkurim (first fruits) of the Ruach Hakodesh also groan within ourselves, eagerly awaiting the Mishpat HaBanim Adoption, that is, the pedut geviyyateinu [ransom for Geulah redemption of our body BERESHIS 47:18] for the Techiyah from HaMesim. [See Ro 3:24-25; 9:4]

24 For in tikvah (hope) we were delivered in eschatological salvation. But tikvah (hope) which is seen is not tikvah, for who hopes for what he sees?

25 But if we have tikvah for what we do not see, we eagerly await it with zitzfleisch.

26 In the same way, the Ruach Hakodesh helps us in our weakness (as creatures: see Ro 5:6). For as we daven, we do not know as we should for what to make tefillos (prayers), but the Ruach HaKodesh Himself intercedes on our behalf with labor pang groans not intelligibly uttered.

27 And Hashem who searches the levavot knows what is the way of thinking of the Ruach Hakodesh, because He intercedes as G-d would have it on behalf of the Kadoshim.

28 And we have da’as that for those who love Hashem everything co-operates toward HaTov for those who are HaKeru’im (the summoned, called ones) according to the etzah (wisdom) of the tochnit Hashem (G-d’s purposeful and willed plan or goal Ro 9:11).

29 For those Hashem had da’as of beterem (beforehand YIRMEYAH 1:5), Hashem also decided upon from the beginning to be conformed to the demut (likeness) of Hashem’s Ben HaElohim, that he [Moshiach] should be HaBechor (Firstborn) among many Achim b’Moshiach.

30 And those Hashem decided upon from the beginning Hashem also summoned, called; and those Hashem summoned, called Hashem also acquitted, pronounced to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM; and those Hashem acquitted and pronounced to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM Hashem also set in eternal kavod (glory).

31 In view of these things, what therefore shall we say? If Hashem is for us, who is against us?

32 He who indeed did not spare His own Ben HaElohim but gave him up for us all, how shall He not also with him give us all things (see Ro 8:12-17; 4:13).

33 Who will bring charges against the Bechirei HaElohim (chosen ones of Hashem)? It is Hashem who acquits and pronounces to be YITZDAK IM HASHEM (justified with G-d).

34 Who is there to bring a judgment of harsha’ah (condemnation, to condemn to Onesh Gehinnom, cf. Ro 8:1)? It is Moshiach Yehoshua who died, rather was kam litechiyah (raised to resurrection), who also is at LIMIN HASHEM (the right hand of G-d—TEHILLIM 110:1), who also intercedes on our behalf (see Ro 8:26-27).

35 Who will separate us from the Ahavas Moshiach (love of Moshiach)? Tzoros (affliction, trouble), or distress, or redifot (persecutions), or hunger, or nakedness, or danger, or cherev (sword 13:4)?

36 As it is written, KI ALECHA HORAGNU KOL HAYOM NECHESHAVNU K’TZON TIVCHAH ("For Your sake we are being killed all the day; we are reckoned as sheep for slaughter" TEHILLIM 44:23 (22).

37 But in all these things we prevail bichlal (entirely) through Him who had ahavah for us.

38 For I am convinced that neither Histalkus nor Chayyim nor Malachim nor Rulers, neither things present nor things to come nor kochot (powers),

39 Neither height nor depth nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the ahavas Hashem which is in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu.
