45 It is even so written: “The first man Adam became a living soul.”*+ The last Adam became a life-giving+ spirit.+

6 who has indeed adequately qualified us to be ministers* of a new covenant,+ not of a written code,*+ but of spirit;+ for the written code condemns+ to death, but the spirit makes alive.+

8 because he who is sowing with a view to his flesh will reap corruption from his flesh,+ but he who is sowing with a view to the spirit+ will reap everlasting life from the spirit.+
