5For rthose who live according to the flesh set their minds on sthe things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on tthe things of the Spirit. 6For to set uthe mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7For the mind that is set on the flesh is vhostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; windeed, it cannot. 8Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
