Romans 8:5-11 New International Version (NIV)

Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.

You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life[a] because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of[b] his Spirit who lives in you.

Waroma 8:5-11 BHN

5Maana, wale wanaoishi kufuatana na matakwa ya mwili, hutawaliwa na fikira za mwili. Lakini wale wanaoishi kufuatana na matakwa ya Roho Mtakatifu, hutawaliwa na fikira za Roho. 6Fikira za mwili huleta kifo; fikira za Roho huleta uhai na amani. 7Maana, mwenye kutawaliwa na fikira za mwili ni adui wa Mungu; haitii sheria ya Mungu, wala hawezi kuitii. 8Watu wanaotii matakwa ya mwili hawawezi kumpendeza Mungu. 9Lakini nyinyi hamuishi kufuatana na matakwa ya mwili, bali kufuatana na matakwa ya Roho, ikiwa Roho wa Mungu anaishi ndani yenu. Yeyote asiye na Roho wa Kristo, huyo si wake Kristo. 10Lakini kama Kristo yumo ndani yenu, ingawa miili yenu imekufa kwa sababu ya dhambi, kwenu Roho ndiye uhai kwa sababu mmefanywa kuwa waadilifu. 11Ikiwa Roho wa Mungu aliyemfufua Kristo kutoka wafu anaishi ndani yenu, basi huyo aliyemfufua Kristo kutoka kwa wafu ataipa uhai miili yenu yenye hali ya kufa; atafanya hivyo kwa njia ya Roho wake akaaye ndani yenu.
