Clementine Vulgate, 1598
World English Bible
1Nihil ergo nunc damnationis est iis qui sunt in Christo Jesu: qui non secundum carnem ambulant.
1There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
2Lex enim spiritus vitæ in Christo Jesu liberavit me a lege peccati et mortis.
2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
3Nam quod impossibile erat legi, in quo infirmabatur per carnem: Deus Filium suum mittens in similitudinem carnis peccati et de peccato, damnavit peccatum in carne,
3For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,
4ut justificatio legis impleretur in nobis, qui non secundum carnem ambulamus, sed secundum spiritum.
4that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
5Qui enim secundum carnem sunt, quæ carnis sunt, sapiunt: qui vero secundum spiritum sunt, quæ sunt spiritus, sentiunt.
5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6Nam prudentia carnis, mors est: prudentia autem spiritus, vita et pax:
6For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;
7quoniam sapientia carnis inimica est Deo: legi enim Dei non est subjecta, nec enim potest.
7because the mind of the flesh is hostile toward God, for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.
8Qui autem in carne sunt, Deo placere non possunt.
8Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.
9Vos 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.
9But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
10Si autem Christus in vobis est, corpus quidem mortuum est propter peccatum, spiritus vero vivit propter justificationem.
10If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
11Quod 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.
11But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
12Ergo fratres, debitores sumus non carni, ut secundum carnem vivamus.
12So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13Si enim secundum carnem vixeritis, moriemini: si autem spiritu facta carnis mortificaveritis, vivetis.
13For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
14Quicumque enim Spiritu Dei aguntur, ii sunt filii Dei.
14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.
15Non enim accepistis spiritum servitutis iterum in timore, sed accepistis spiritum adoptionis filiorum, in quo clamamus: Abba (Pater).
15For you didn’t receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”
16Ipse enim Spiritus testimonium reddit spiritui nostro quod sumus filii Dei.
16The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
17Si autem filii, et hæredes: hæredes, quidem Dei, cohæredes autem Christi: si tamen compatimur ut et conglorificemur.
17and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
18Existimo enim quod non sunt condignæ passiones hujus temporis ad futuram gloriam, quæ revelabitur in nobis.
18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.
19Nam exspectatio creaturæ revelationem filiorum Dei exspectat.
19For the creation waits with eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.
20Vanitati enim creatura subjecta est non volens, sed propter eum, qui subjecit eam in spe:
20For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope
21quia et ipsa creatura liberabitur a servitute corruptionis in libertatem gloriæ filiorum Dei.
21that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
22Scimus enim quod omnis creatura ingemiscit, et parturit usque adhuc.
22For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.
23Non solum autem illa, sed et nos ipsi primitias spiritus habentes: et ipsi intra nos gemimus adoptionem filiorum Dei exspectantes, redemptionem corporis nostri.
23Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.
24Spe enim salvi facti sumus. Spes autem, quæ videtur, non est spes: nam quod videt quis, quid sperat?
24For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?
25Si autem quod non videmus, speramus: per patientiam exspectamus.
25But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience.
26Similiter autem et Spiritus adjuvat infirmitatem nostram: nam quid oremus, sicut oportet, nescimus: sed ipse Spiritus postulat pro nobis gemitibus inenarrabilibus.
26In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered.
27Qui autem scrutatur corda, scit quid desideret Spiritus: quia secundum Deum postulat pro sanctis.
27He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.
28Scimus autem quoniam diligentibus Deum omnia cooperantur in bonum, iis qui secundum propositum vocati sunt sancti.
28We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.
29Nam quos præscivit, et prædestinavit conformes fieri imaginis Filii sui, ut sit ipse primogenitus in multis fratribus.
29For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
30Quos autem prædestinavit, hos et vocavit: et quos vocavit, hos et justificavit: quos autem justificavit, illos et glorificavit.
30Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
31Quid ergo dicemus ad hæc? si Deus pro nobis, qui contra nos?
31What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
32Qui etiam proprio Filio suo non pepercit, sed pro nobis omnibus tradidit illum: quomodo non etiam cum illo omnia nobis donavit?
32He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?
33Quis accusabit adversus electos Dei? Deus qui justificat,
33Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies.
34quis est qui condemnet? Christus Jesus, qui mortuus est, immo qui et resurrexit, qui est ad dexteram Dei, qui etiam interpellat pro nobis.
34Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
35Quis ergo nos separabit a caritate Christi? tribulatio? an angustia? an fames? an nuditas? an periculum? an persecutio? an gladius?
35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36(Sicut scriptum est: [Quia propter te mortificamur tota die: æstimati sumus sicut oves occisionis.)]
36Even as it is written, “For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”
37Sed in his omnibus superamus propter eum qui dilexit nos.
37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
38Certus sum enim quia neque mors, neque vita, neque angeli, neque principatus, neque virtutes, neque instantia, neque futura, neque fortitudo,
38For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
39neque altitudo, neque profundum, neque creatura alia poterit nos separare a caritate Dei, quæ est in Christo Jesu Domino nostro.
39nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
