Romans 8
1 Now then, there is no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit,
ye janāḥ khrīṣṭaṁ yīśum āśritya śārīrikaṁ nācaranta ātmikamācaranti te'dhunā daṇḍārhā na bhavanti|
2 because the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of the sin and the death.
jīvanadāyakasyātmano vyavasthā khrīṣṭayīśunā pāpamaraṇayo rvyavasthāto māmamocayat|
3 Further, what the law could not do, in that it was weak due to the flesh, God has done by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned the sin in the flesh,
yasmācchārīrasya durbbalatvād vyavasthayā yat karmmāsādhyam īśvaro nijaputraṁ pāpiśarīrarūpaṁ pāpanāśakabalirūpañca preṣya tasya śarīre pāpasya daṇḍaṁ kurvvan tatkarmma sādhitavān|
4 so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
tataḥ śārīrikaṁ nācaritvāsmābhirātmikam ācaradbhirvyavasthāgranthe nirddiṣṭāni puṇyakarmmāṇi sarvvāṇi sādhyante|
5 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.
ye śārīrikācāriṇaste śārīrikān viṣayān bhāvayanti ye cātmikācāriṇaste ātmano viṣayān bhāvayanti|
6 Further, the mindset of the flesh yields death, but the mindset of the Spirit yields life and peace;
śārīrikabhāvasya phalaṁ mṛtyuḥ kiñcātmikabhāvasya phale jīvanaṁ śāntiśca|
7 because the mindset of the flesh represents enmity against God, since it does not submit to God's law, nor indeed can it.
yataḥ śārīrikabhāva īśvarasya viruddhaḥ śatrutābhāva eva sa īśvarasya vyavasthāyā adhīno na bhavati bhavituñca na śaknoti|
8 So, those who are ‘in flesh’ cannot please God.
etasmāt śārīrikācāriṣu toṣṭum īśvareṇa na śakyaṁ|
9 You, however, are not ‘in flesh’ but ‘in Spirit’, if indeed God's Spirit dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.
kintvīśvarasyātmā yadi yuṣmākaṁ madhye vasati tarhi yūyaṁ śārīrikācāriṇo na santa ātmikācāriṇo bhavathaḥ| yasmin tu khrīṣṭasyātmā na vidyate sa tatsambhavo nahi|
10 But if Christ is in you, the body is dead through sin, but the Spirit is life through righteousness.
yadi khrīṣṭo yuṣmān adhitiṣṭhati tarhi pāpam uddiśya śarīraṁ mṛtaṁ kintu puṇyamuddiśyātmā jīvati|
11 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, then He who raised the Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of His Spirit who dwells in you.
mṛtagaṇād yīśu ryenotthāpitastasyātmā yadi yuṣmanmadhye vasati tarhi mṛtagaṇāt khrīṣṭasya sa utthāpayitā yuṣmanmadhyavāsinā svakīyātmanā yuṣmākaṁ mṛtadehānapi puna rjīvayiṣyati|
12 So then, brothers, we have no obligation to the flesh, to live according to it;
he bhrātṛgaṇa śarīrasya vayamadhamarṇā na bhavāmo'taḥ śārīrikācāro'smābhi rna karttavyaḥ|
13 because if you live according to the flesh, you are about to die; but if you put to death the practices of the body, by the Spirit, you will live.
yadi yūyaṁ śarīrikācāriṇo bhaveta tarhi yuṣmābhi rmarttavyameva kintvātmanā yadi śarīrakarmmāṇi ghātayeta tarhi jīviṣyatha|
14 Because as many as are led by God's Spirit, these are God's sons
yato yāvanto lokā īśvarasyātmanākṛṣyante te sarvva īśvarasya santānā bhavanti|
15 —you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fear all over again, but you did receive the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father!”
yūyaṁ punarapi bhayajanakaṁ dāsyabhāvaṁ na prāptāḥ kintu yena bhāveneśvaraṁ pitaḥ pitariti procya sambodhayatha tādṛśaṁ dattakaputratvabhāvam prāpnuta|
16 That Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are God's children
aparañca vayam īśvarasya santānā etasmin pavitra ātmā svayam asmākam ātmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ pramāṇaṁ dadāti|
17 —if children, also heirs: heirs of God and coheirs with Christ (if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him).
ataeva vayaṁ yadi santānāstarhyadhikāriṇaḥ, arthād īśvarasya svattvādhikāriṇaḥ khrīṣṭena sahādhikāriṇaśca bhavāmaḥ; aparaṁ tena sārddhaṁ yadi duḥkhabhāgino bhavāmastarhi tasya vibhavasyāpi bhāgino bhaviṣyāmaḥ|
18 I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is going to be revealed in us.
kintvasmāsu yo bhāvīvibhavaḥ prakāśiṣyate tasya samīpe varttamānakālīnaṁ duḥkhamahaṁ tṛṇāya manye|
19 You see, the creation waits with eager anticipation for the revelation of God's sons;
yataḥ prāṇigaṇa īśvarasya santānānāṁ vibhavaprāptim ākāṅkṣan nitāntam apekṣate|
20 because without choice the creation was subjected to futility, due to the One who did the subjecting, based on the hope
aparañca prāṇigaṇaḥ svairam alīkatāyā vaśīkṛto nābhavat
21 that the creation itself will also be set free from the bondage to decay into the freedom of the glory of God's children.
kintu prāṇigaṇo'pi naśvaratādhīnatvāt muktaḥ san īśvarasya santānānāṁ paramamuktiṁ prāpsyatītyabhiprāyeṇa vaśīkartrā vaśīcakre|
22 Yes, we know that the whole creation has been groaning and in labor pains until now.
aparañca prasūyamānāvad vyathitaḥ san idānīṁ yāvat kṛtsnaḥ prāṇigaṇa ārttasvaraṁ karotīti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
23 Not only that, we ourselves also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we groan within ourselves, eagerly awaiting adoption, the redemption of our body.
kevalaḥ sa iti nahi kintu prathamajātaphalasvarūpam ātmānaṁ prāptā vayamapi dattakaputratvapadaprāptim arthāt śarīrasya muktiṁ pratīkṣamāṇāstadvad antarārttarāvaṁ kurmmaḥ|
24 Yes, we were saved in the hope, but a hope that is seen is not hope—why would anyone hope for what he sees?
vayaṁ pratyāśayā trāṇam alabhāmahi kintu pratyakṣavastuno yā pratyāśā sā pratyāśā nahi, yato manuṣyo yat samīkṣate tasya pratyāśāṁ kutaḥ kariṣyati?
25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly await it with endurance.
yad apratyakṣaṁ tasya pratyāśāṁ yadi vayaṁ kurvvīmahi tarhi dhairyyam avalambya pratīkṣāmahe|
26 Likewise also the Spirit comes to the aid of the hope in our weaknesses, since we do not know what we need to pray for. Indeed the Spirit Himself intercedes on our behalf with inexpressible groanings,
tata ātmāpi svayam asmākaṁ durbbalatāyāḥ sahāyatvaṁ karoti; yataḥ kiṁ prārthitavyaṁ tad boddhuṁ vayaṁ na śaknumaḥ, kintvaspaṣṭairārttarāvairātmā svayam asmannimittaṁ nivedayati|
27 while He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit's mind, since He prays for the saints in accordance with God.
aparam īśvarābhimatarūpeṇa pavitralokānāṁ kṛte nivedayati ya ātmā tasyābhiprāyo'ntaryyāminā jñāyate|
28 Further, we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to purpose.
aparam īśvarīyanirūpaṇānusāreṇāhūtāḥ santo ye tasmin prīyante sarvvāṇi militvā teṣāṁ maṅgalaṁ sādhayanti, etad vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
29 Because whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.
yata īśvaro bahubhrātṛṇāṁ madhye svaputraṁ jyeṣṭhaṁ karttum icchan yān pūrvvaṁ lakṣyīkṛtavān tān tasya pratimūrtyāḥ sādṛśyaprāptyarthaṁ nyayuṁkta|
30 Further, whom He predestined, these He also called; and whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
aparañca tena ye niyuktāsta āhūtā api ye ca tenāhūtāste sapuṇyīkṛtāḥ, ye ca tena sapuṇyīkṛtāste vibhavayuktāḥ|
31 What then shall we say to these things? Since God is for us, who is against us?
ityatra vayaṁ kiṁ brūmaḥ? īśvaro yadyasmākaṁ sapakṣo bhavati tarhi ko vipakṣo'smākaṁ?
32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up on behalf of us all, how shall He not with Him also graciously give us all things?
ātmaputraṁ na rakṣitvā yo'smākaṁ sarvveṣāṁ kṛte taṁ pradattavān sa kiṁ tena sahāsmabhyam anyāni sarvvāṇi na dāsyati?
33 Who will bring a charge against God's chosen ones? God is He who justifies.
īśvarasyābhiruciteṣu kena doṣa āropayiṣyate? ya īśvarastān puṇyavata iva gaṇayati kiṁ tena?
34 Who is he who condemns? Christ is He who died, but even more, was indeed raised, who indeed is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes on our behalf.
aparaṁ tebhyo daṇḍadānājñā vā kena kariṣyate? yo'smannimittaṁ prāṇān tyaktavān kevalaṁ tanna kintu mṛtagaṇamadhyād utthitavān, api ceśvarasya dakṣiṇe pārśve tiṣṭhan adyāpyasmākaṁ nimittaṁ prārthata evambhūto yaḥ khrīṣṭaḥ kiṁ tena?
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Will it be affliction or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword?
asmābhiḥ saha khrīṣṭasya premavicchedaṁ janayituṁ kaḥ śaknoti? kleśo vyasanaṁ vā tāḍanā vā durbhikṣaṁ vā vastrahīnatvaṁ vā prāṇasaṁśayo vā khaṅgo vā kimetāni śaknuvanti?
36 (As it is written: “For your sake we are being put to death all day long; we are accounted as sheep for slaughter.”)
kintu likhitam āste, yathā, vayaṁ tava nimittaṁ smo mṛtyuvaktre'khilaṁ dinaṁ| balirdeyo yathā meṣo vayaṁ gaṇyāmahe tathā|
37 No, in all these things we prevail completely through Him who loved us.
aparaṁ yo'smāsu prīyate tenaitāsu vipatsu vayaṁ samyag vijayāmahe|
38 Because I am persuaded that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities nor powers, neither things present nor things to come,
yato'smākaṁ prabhunā yīśukhrīṣṭeneśvarasya yat prema tasmād asmākaṁ vicchedaṁ janayituṁ mṛtyu rjīvanaṁ vā divyadūtā vā balavanto mukhyadūtā vā varttamāno vā bhaviṣyan kālo vā uccapadaṁ vā nīcapadaṁ vāparaṁ kimapi sṛṣṭavastu
39 neither height nor depth nor any other created thing will have the power to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
vaiteṣāṁ kenāpi na śakyamityasmin dṛḍhaviśvāso mamāste|
