Romans 8:3-5
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
For God Did What The Law Could Not Do, For Those Walking In The Spirit
3 For the thing impossible[a] for the Law, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did. Having sent His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for[b] sin, He condemned sin in the flesh[c], 4 in order that the requirement[d] of the Law might be fulfilled in us, the ones walking not in-accordance-with[e] the flesh, but in accordance with the Spirit.
For The Way of The Flesh Is Death. But You Are Not In The Flesh, But In The Spirit
5 For the ones being[f] in accordance with the flesh are thinking[g] the things of [h] the flesh, but the ones being in accordance with the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
