1 إِذًا لَا شَيْءَ مِنَ ٱلدَّيْنُونَةِ ٱلْآنَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، ٱلسَّالِكِينَ لَيْسَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ بَلْ حَسَبَ ٱلرُّوحِ.
1 Οὐδὲν ἄρα νῦν κατάκριμα τοῖς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ μὴ κατὰ σάρκα περιπατοῦσιν, ἀλλὰ κατὰ πνεῦμα.
2 لِأَنَّ نَامُوسَ رُوحِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ قَدْ أَعْتَقَنِي مِنْ نَامُوسِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ وَٱلْمَوْتِ.
2 ὁ γὰρ νόμος τοῦ πνεύματος τῆς ζωῆς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ἠλευθέρωσέ με ἀπὸ τοῦ νόμου τῆς ἁμαρτίας καὶ τοῦ θανάτου.
3 لِأَنَّهُ مَا كَانَ ٱلنَّامُوسُ عَاجِزًا عَنْهُ، فِي مَا كَانَ ضَعِيفًا بِٱلْجَسَدِ، فَٱللهُ إِذْ أَرْسَلَ ٱبْنَهُ فِي شِبْهِ جَسَدِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، وَلِأَجْلِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، دَانَ ٱلْخَطِيَّةَ فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ،
3 τὸ γὰρ ἀδύνατον τοῦ νόμου, ἐν ᾧ ἠσθένει διὰ τῆς σαρκός, ὁ Θεὸς τὸν ἑαυτοῦ υἱὸν πέμψας ἐν ὁμοιώματι σαρκὸς ἁμαρτίας καὶ περὶ ἁμαρτίας, κατέκρινε τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐν τῇ σαρκί,
4 لِكَيْ يَتِمَّ حُكْمُ ٱلنَّامُوسِ فِينَا، نَحْنُ ٱلسَّالِكِينَ لَيْسَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ بَلْ حَسَبَ ٱلرُّوحِ.
4 ἵνα τὸ δικαίωμα τοῦ νόμου πληρωθῇ ἐν ἡμῖν τοῖς μὴ κατὰ σάρκα περιπατοῦσιν, ἀλλὰ κατὰ πνεῦμα·
5 فَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ فَبِمَا لِلْجَسَدِ يَهْتَمُّونَ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ حَسَبَ ٱلرُّوحِ فَبِمَا لِلرُّوحِ.
5 οἱ γὰρ κατὰ σάρκα ὄντες τὰ τῆς σαρκὸς φρονοῦσιν, οἱ δὲ κατὰ πνεῦμα τὰ τοῦ πνεύματος.
6 لِأَنَّ ٱهْتِمَامَ ٱلْجَسَدِ هُوَ مَوْتٌ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱهْتِمَامَ ٱلرُّوحِ هُوَ حَيَاةٌ وَسَلَامٌ.
6 τὸ γὰρ φρόνημα τῆς σαρκὸς θάνατος, τὸ δὲ φρόνημα τοῦ πνεύματος ζωὴ καὶ εἰρήνη· διότι τὸ φρόνημα τῆς σαρκὸς ἔχθρα εἰς Θεόν·
7 لِأَنَّ ٱهْتِمَامَ ٱلْجَسَدِ هُوَ عَدَاوَةٌ لِلهِ، إِذْ لَيْسَ هُوَ خَاضِعًا لِنَامُوسِ ٱللهِ، لِأَنَّهُ أَيْضًا لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ.
7 τῷ γὰρ νόμῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐχ ὑποτάσσεται· οὐδὲ γὰρ δύναται·
8 فَٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يُرْضُوا ٱللهَ.
8 οἱ δὲ ἐν σαρκὶ ὄντες Θεῷ ἀρέσαι οὐ δύνανται.
9 وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَلَسْتُمْ فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ بَلْ فِي ٱلرُّوحِ، إِنْ كَانَ رُوحُ ٱللهِ سَاكِنًا فِيكُمْ. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ لَيْسَ لَهُ رُوحُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، فَذَلِكَ لَيْسَ لَهُ.
9 ὑμεῖς δὲ οὐκ ἐστὲ ἐν σαρκί, ἀλλ᾽ ἐν πνεύματι, εἴπερ Πνεῦμα Θεοῦ οἰκεῖ ἐν ὑμῖν. εἰ δέ τις Πνεῦμα Χριστοῦ οὐκ ἔχει, οὗτος οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτοῦ.
10 وَإِنْ كَانَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ فِيكُمْ، فَٱلْجَسَدُ مَيِّتٌ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، وَأَمَّا ٱلرُّوحُ فَحَيَاةٌ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْبِرِّ.
10 εἰ δὲ Χριστὸς ἐν ὑμῖν, τὸ μὲν σῶμα νεκρὸν δι᾽ ἁμαρτίαν, τὸ δὲ πνεῦμα ζωὴ διὰ δικαιοσύνην.
11 وَإِنْ كَانَ رُوحُ ٱلَّذِي أَقَامَ يَسُوعَ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ سَاكِنًا فِيكُمْ، فَٱلَّذِي أَقَامَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ سَيُحْيِي أَجْسَادَكُمُ ٱلْمَائِتَةَ أَيْضًا بِرُوحِهِ ٱلسَّاكِنِ فِيكُمْ.
11 εἰ δὲ τὸ Πνεῦμα τοῦ ἐγείραντος Ἰησοῦν ἐκ νεκρῶν οἰκεῖ ἐν ὑμῖν, ὁ ἐγείρας τὸν Χριστὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν ζωοποιήσει καὶ τὰ θνητὰ σώματα ὑμῶν διὰ τὸ ἐνοικοῦν αὐτοῦ Πνεῦμα ἐν ὑμῖν.
12 فَإِذًا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ نَحْنُ مَدْيُونُونَ لَيْسَ لِلْجَسَدِ لِنَعِيشَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ.
12 Ἄρα οὖν, ἀδελφοί, ὀφειλέται ἐσμὲν οὐ τῇ σαρκὶ τοῦ κατὰ σάρκα ζῆν·
13 لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ عِشْتُمْ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ فَسَتَمُوتُونَ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ بِٱلرُّوحِ تُمِيتُونَ أَعْمَالَ ٱلْجَسَدِ فَسَتَحْيَوْنَ.
13 εἰ γὰρ κατὰ σάρκα ζῆτε, μέλλετε ἀποθνήσκειν· εἰ δὲ Πνεύματι τὰς πράξεις τοῦ σώματος θανατοῦτε, ζήσεσθε.
14 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَنْقَادُونَ بِرُوحِ ٱللهِ، فَأُولَئِكَ هُمْ أَبْنَاءُ ٱللهِ.
14 ὅσοι γὰρ Πνεύματι Θεοῦ ἄγονται, οὗτοί εἰσιν υἱοὶ Θεοῦ.
15 إِذْ لَمْ تَأْخُذُوا رُوحَ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ أَيْضًا لِلْخَوْفِ، بَلْ أَخَذْتُمْ رُوحَ ٱلتَّبَنِّي ٱلَّذِي بِهِ نَصْرُخُ: «يَا أَبَا ٱلْآبُ».
15 οὐ γὰρ ἐλάβετε Πνεῦμα δουλείας πάλιν εἰς φόβον, ἀλλ᾽ ἐλάβετε Πνεῦμα υἱοθεσίας, ἐν ᾧ κράζομεν· ἀββᾶ ὁ πατήρ.
16 اَلرُّوحُ نَفْسُهُ أَيْضًا يَشْهَدُ لِأَرْوَاحِنَا أَنَّنَا أَوْلَادُ ٱللهِ.
16 αὐτὸ τὸ Πνεῦμα συμμαρτυρεῖ τῷ πνεύματι ἡμῶν ὅτι ἐσμὲν τέκνα Θεοῦ.
17 فَإِنْ كُنَّا أَوْلَادًا فَإِنَّنَا وَرَثَةٌ أَيْضًا، وَرَثَةُ ٱللهِ وَوَارِثُونَ مَعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ. إِنْ كُنَّا نَتَأَلَّمُ مَعَهُ لِكَيْ نَتَمَجَّدَ أَيْضًا مَعَهُ.
17 εἰ δὲ τέκνα, καὶ κληρονόμοι, κληρονόμοι μὲν Θεοῦ, συγκληρονόμοι δὲ Χριστοῦ, εἴπερ συμπάσχομεν ἵνα καὶ συνδοξασθῶμεν.
18 فَإِنِّي أَحْسِبُ أَنَّ آلَامَ ٱلزَّمَانِ ٱلْحَاضِرِ لَا تُقَاسُ بِٱلْمَجْدِ ٱلْعَتِيدِ أَنْ يُسْتَعْلَنَ فِينَا.
18 Λογίζομαι γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ ἄξια τὰ παθήματα τοῦ νῦν καιροῦ πρὸς τὴν μέλλουσαν δόξαν ἀποκαλυφθῆναι εἰς ἡμᾶς.
19 لِأَنَّ ٱنْتِظَارَ ٱلْخَلِيقَةِ يَتَوَقَّعُ ٱسْتِعْلَانَ أَبْنَاءِ ٱللهِ.
19 ἡ γὰρ ἀποκαραδοκία τῆς κτίσεως τὴν ἀποκάλυψιν τῶν υἱῶν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀπεκδέχεται.
20 إِذْ أُخْضِعَتِ ٱلْخَلِيقَةُ لِلْبُطْلِ - لَيْسَ طَوْعًا، بَلْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلَّذِي أَخْضَعَهَا - عَلَى ٱلرَّجَاءِ،
20 τῇ γὰρ ματαιότητι ἡ κτίσις ὑπετάγη, οὐχ ἑκοῦσα, ἀλλὰ διὰ τὸν ὑποτάξαντα, ἐπ᾽ ἐλπίδι
21 لِأَنَّ ٱلْخَلِيقَةَ نَفْسَهَا أَيْضًا سَتُعْتَقُ مِنْ عُبُودِيَّةِ ٱلْفَسَادِ إِلَى حُرِّيَّةِ مَجْدِ أَوْلَادِ ٱللهِ.
21 ὅτι καὶ αὐτὴ ἡ κτίσις ἐλευθερωθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς δουλείας τῆς φθορᾶς εἰς τὴν ἐλευθερίαν τῆς δόξης τῶν τέκνων τοῦ Θεοῦ.
22 فَإِنَّنَا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلْخَلِيقَةِ تَئِنُّ وَتَتَمَخَّضُ مَعًا إِلَى ٱلْآنَ.
22 οἴδαμεν γὰρ ὅτι πᾶσα ἡ κτίσις συστενάζει καὶ συνωδίνει ἄχρι τοῦ νῦν·
23 وَلَيْسَ هَكَذَا فَقَطْ، بَلْ نَحْنُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَنَا بَاكُورَةُ ٱلرُّوحِ، نَحْنُ أَنْفُسُنَا أَيْضًا نَئِنُّ فِي أَنْفُسِنَا، مُتَوَقِّعِينَ ٱلتَّبَنِّيَ فِدَاءَ أَجْسَادِنَا.
23 οὐ μόνον δέ, ἀλλὰ καὶ αὐτοὶ τὴν ἀπαρχὴν τοῦ Πνεύματος ἔχοντες καὶ ἡμεῖς αὐτοὶ ἐν ἑαυτοῖς στενάζομεν υἱοθεσίαν ἀπεκδεχόμενοι, τὴν ἀπολύτρωσιν τοῦ σώματος ἡμῶν.
24 لِأَنَّنَا بِٱلرَّجَاءِ خَلَصْنَا. وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرَّجَاءَ ٱلْمَنْظُورَ لَيْسَ رَجَاءً، لِأَنَّ مَا يَنْظُرُهُ أَحَدٌ كَيْفَ يَرْجُوهُ أَيْضًا؟
24 τῇ γὰρ ἐλπίδι ἐσώθημεν· ἐλπὶς δὲ βλεπομένη οὐκ ἔστιν ἐλπίς· ὃ γὰρ βλέπει τις, τί καὶ ἐλπίζει;
25 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كُنَّا نَرْجُو مَا لَسْنَا نَنْظُرُهُ فَإِنَّنَا نَتَوَقَّعُهُ بِٱلصَّبْرِ.
25 εἰ δὲ ὃ οὐ βλέπομεν ἐλπίζομεν, δι᾽ ὑπομονῆς ἀπεκδεχόμεθα.
26 وَكَذَلِكَ ٱلرُّوحُ أَيْضًا يُعِينُ ضَعَفَاتِنَا، لِأَنَّنَا لَسْنَا نَعْلَمُ مَا نُصَلِّي لِأَجْلِهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي. وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ نَفْسَهُ يَشْفَعُ فِينَا بِأَنَّاتٍ لَا يُنْطَقُ بِهَا.
26 Ὡσαύτως δὲ καὶ τὸ Πνεῦμα συναντιλαμβάνεται ταῖς ἀσθενείαις ἡμῶν· τὸ γὰρ τί προσευξόμεθα καθὸ δεῖ οὐκ οἴδαμεν, ἀλλ᾽ αὐτὸ τὸ Πνεῦμα ὑπερεντυγχάνει ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν στεναγμοῖς ἀλαλήτοις·
27 وَلَكِنَّ ٱلَّذِي يَفْحَصُ ٱلْقُلُوبَ يَعْلَمُ مَا هُوَ ٱهْتِمَامُ ٱلرُّوحِ، لِأَنَّهُ بِحَسَبِ مَشِيئَةِ ٱللهِ يَشْفَعُ فِي ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.
27 ὁ δὲ ἐρευνῶν τὰς καρδίας οἶδε τί τὸ φρόνημα τοῦ Πνεύματος, ὅτι κατὰ Θεὸν ἐντυγχάνει ὑπὲρ ἁγίων.
28 وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلْأَشْيَاءِ تَعْمَلُ مَعًا لِلْخَيْرِ لِلَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ ٱللهَ، ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ مَدْعُوُّونَ حَسَبَ قَصْدِهِ.
28 Οἴδαμεν δὲ ὅτι τοῖς ἀγαπῶσι τὸν Θεὸν πάντα συνεργεῖ εἰς ἀγαθόν, τοῖς κατὰ πρόθεσιν κλητοῖς οὖσιν·
29 لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقَ فَعَرَفَهُمْ سَبَقَ فَعَيَّنَهُمْ لِيَكُونُوا مُشَابِهِينَ صُورَةَ ٱبْنِهِ، لِيَكُونَ هُوَ بِكْرًا بَيْنَ إِخْوَةٍ كَثِيرِينَ.
29 ὅτι οὓς προέγνω, καὶ προώρισε συμμόρφους τῆς εἰκόνος τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ, εἰς τὸ εἶναι αὐτὸν πρωτότοκον ἐν πολλοῖς ἀδελφοῖς·
30 وَٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقَ فَعَيَّنَهُمْ، فَهَؤُلَاءِ دَعَاهُمْ أَيْضًا. وَٱلَّذِينَ دَعَاهُمْ، فَهَؤُلَاءِ بَرَّرَهُمْ أَيْضًا. وَٱلَّذِينَ بَرَّرَهُمْ، فَهَؤُلَاءِ مَجَّدَهُمْ أَيْضًا.
30 οὓς δὲ προώρισε, τούτους καὶ ἐκάλεσε, καὶ οὓς ἐκάλεσε, τούτους καὶ ἐδικαίωσεν, οὓς δὲ ἐδικαίωσε, τούτους καὶ ἐδόξασε.
31 فَمَاذَا نَقُولُ لِهَذَا؟ إِنْ كَانَ ٱللهُ مَعَنَا، فَمَنْ عَلَيْنَا؟
31 Τί οὖν ἐροῦμεν πρὸς ταῦτα; εἰ ὁ Θεὸς ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν, τίς καθ᾽ ἡμῶν;
32 اَلَّذِي لَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى ٱبْنِهِ، بَلْ بَذَلَهُ لِأَجْلِنَا أَجْمَعِينَ، كَيْفَ لَا يَهَبُنَا أَيْضًا مَعَهُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ؟
32 ὅς γε τοῦ ἰδίου υἱοῦ οὐκ ἐφείσατο, ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν πάντων παρέδωκεν αὐτόν, πῶς οὐχὶ καὶ σὺν αὐτῷ τὰ πάντα ἡμῖν χαρίσεται;
33 مَنْ سَيَشْتَكِي عَلَى مُخْتَارِي ٱللهِ؟ ٱللهُ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يُبَرِّرُ.
33 τίς ἐγκαλέσει κατὰ ἐκλεκτῶν Θεοῦ; Θεὸς ὁ δικαιῶν·
34 مَنْ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَدِينُ؟ اَلْمَسِيحُ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي مَاتَ، بَلْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ قَامَ أَيْضًا، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ أَيْضًا عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱللهِ، ٱلَّذِي أَيْضًا يَشْفَعُ فِينَا.
34 τίς ὁ κατακρίνων; Χριστὸς ὁ ἀποθανών, μᾶλλον δὲ καὶ ἐγερθείς, ὃς καί ἐστιν ἐν δεξιᾷ τοῦ Θεοῦ, ὃς καὶ ἐντυγχάνει ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν.
35 مَنْ سَيَفْصِلُنَا عَنْ مَحَبَّةِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ؟ أَشِدَّةٌ أَمْ ضِيْقٌ أَمِ ٱضْطِهَادٌ أَمْ جُوعٌ أَمْ عُرْيٌ أَمْ خَطَرٌ أَمْ سَيْفٌ؟
35 τίς ἡμᾶς χωρίσει ἀπὸ τῆς ἀγάπης τοῦ Χριστοῦ; θλῖψις ἢ στενοχωρία ἢ διωγμὸς ἢ λιμὸς ἢ γυμνότης ἢ κίνδυνος ἢ μάχαιρα;
36 كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «إِنَّنَا مِنْ أَجْلِكَ نُمَاتُ كُلَّ ٱلنَّهَارِ. قَدْ حُسِبْنَا مِثْلَ غَنَمٍ لِلذَّبْحِ».
36 καθὼς γέγραπται ὅτι ἕνεκά σου θανατούμεθα ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν· ἐλογίσθημεν ὡς πρόβατα σφαγῆς.
37 وَلَكِنَّنَا فِي هَذِهِ جَمِيعِهَا يَعْظُمُ ٱنْتِصَارُنَا بِٱلَّذِي أَحَبَّنَا.
37 ἀλλ᾽ ἐν τούτοις πᾶσιν ὑπερνικῶμεν διὰ τοῦ ἀγαπήσαντος ἡμᾶς.
38 فَإِنِّي مُتَيَقِّنٌ أَنَّهُ لَا مَوْتَ وَلَا حَيَاةَ، وَلَا مَلَائِكَةَ وَلَا رُؤَسَاءَ وَلَا قُوَّاتِ، وَلَا أُمُورَ حَاضِرَةً وَلَا مُسْتَقْبَلَةً،
38 πέπεισμαι γὰρ ὅτι οὔτε θάνατος οὔτε ζωὴ οὔτε ἄγγελοι οὔτε ἀρχαὶ οὔτε δυνάμεις οὔτε ἐνεστῶτα οὔτε μέλλοντα
39 وَلَا عُلْوَ وَلَا عُمْقَ، وَلَا خَلِيقَةَ أُخْرَى، تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تَفْصِلَنَا عَنْ مَحَبَّةِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ رَبِّنَا.
39 οὔτε ὕψωμα οὔτε βάθος οὔτε τις κτίσις ἑτέρα δυνήσεται ἡμᾶς χωρίσαι ἀπὸ τῆς ἀγάπης τοῦ Θεοῦ τῆς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡμῶν.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
After showing how great the reward of a spiritual life is, and that it maketh Christ to dwell in us, and that it quickeneth our mortal bodies, and wingeth them to heaven, and rendereth the way of virtue easier, he next fitly introduces an exhortation to this purpose.
