There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

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.

For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors; not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.

Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but prostitutes and adulterers God will judge.

Therefore God also gives them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

For this reason God gives them up to vile passions. For even their women change the natural use for what is contrary to nature.

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be led astray. Neither prostitutes, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,

who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to licentiousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

For this you know, that no prostitute, unclean person, nor covetous person, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: sexual perversion, uncleanness, passion, evil lusts, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

For God did not call us to impurity, but in sanctification.

For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were set forth to this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny the only Lord God, even our Lord Jesus Christ.

And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting bonds under darkness for the judgment of the Great Day;

Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, despise rulership, and speak evil of dignitaries.

And Moses sent to summon Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, but they said, We will not come up.

Moreover you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up!

And the man who acts presumptuously to not heed the priest who is standing to serve there before Jehovah your God, or the judge, that man shall die. Thus you shall put away the evil from Israel.

And all the people shall hear and fear, and no longer act presumptuously.

And they shall say to the elders of his city, This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.

Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones; thus you shall put away the evil from among you, and all Israel shall hear and fear.

But the sons of worthlessness said, How can this man deliver us? So they despised him, and brought him no gifts. But he kept silent.

And there met them there a man of worthlessness, whose name was Sheba the son of Bichri, a Benjamite. And he blew a shofar, and said: We have no part in David, nor do we have inheritance in the son of Jesse; every man to his tents, O Israel!

And when all Israel saw that the king had not heeded them, the people answered the king, saying: What portion do we have in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse. To your tents, O Israel! Now, see to your own house, O David! And Israel departed to their tents.

Why do the nations rage, and the peoples devise a vain thing?

Let us break and tear away their bonds, and cast away their cords from us.

Then He shall speak to them in His anger, and terrify them in His wrath.

that has said, We shall be strong with our tongue; our lips are our own; who is lord over us?

O generation, see the Word of Jehovah. Have I been a wilderness to Israel, or a land of darkness? Why do My people say, We roam freely; we will come no more to You?

But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, We do not desire to have this man reign over us.

Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are ordained by God.

For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.

Therefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of wrath but also because of conscience.

Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man because of the Lord; whether to the king as supreme,

or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good.

But the soul who does anything loftily, whether he is a native or a sojourner, that one blasphemes Jehovah, and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, despise rulership, and speak evil of dignitaries.

Let not my soul enter their council; let not my honor be united to their assembly; for in their anger they slew a man, and in their self-will they have hamstrung an ox.

For an overseer must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not prone to anger, not given to wine, not quarrelsome, not greedy for money,

You shall not curse God, nor curse a chief of your people.

Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in a low place.

I have seen servants on horses, and princes walking on the ground like servants.

Do not curse the king, not even in your thoughts; and do not curse the rich, not even in your bedroom; for a bird of the air may carry the voice, and that which has wings shall tell the matter.

Then Paul said, I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.

Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, despise rulership, and speak evil of dignitaries.

But these speak evil of things they do not know; and whatever they understand naturally, like animals without reason, in these things they corrupt themselves.
