⁸and those who are ^(A)in the flesh cannot please God.

⁹However, you are not ^(B)in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God ^(C)dwells in you. But ^(D)if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. ¹⁰^(E)If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is ^[a]alive because of righteousness. ¹¹But if the Spirit of Him who ^(F)raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, ^(G)He who raised ^(H)Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies ^[b]through His Spirit who dwells in you.

¹²So then, brothers and sisters, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— ¹³for ^(I)if you are living in accord with the flesh, you are going to die; but if by the Spirit you are ^(J)putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live. ¹⁴For all who are ^(K)being led by the Spirit of God, these are ^(L)sons and daughters of God. ¹⁵For you ^(M)have not received a spirit of slavery ^[c]leading to fear again, but you ^(N)have received ^[d]a spirit of adoption as sons and daughters by which we cry out, “^(O)Abba! ^[e]Father!” ¹⁶The Spirit Himself ^(P)testifies with our spirit that we are ^(Q)children of God,
