English
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.

Notes

you will die: Death is the result of sin. Those who consistently submit to sin will suffer spiritual death (you will die). However, the presence of the Holy Spirit in the lives of Christians makes it possible for them to turn away from sin. The result is eternal life (you will live).
