Romans 8:17-22

17and if children, 1heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, 2if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.

18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time 3are not worthy to be compared with the 4glory that is to be revealed to us. 19For the 5anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for 6the revealing of the 7sons of God. 20For the creation 8was subjected to 9futility, not willingly, but 10because of Him who subjected it, 11in hope 21that 12the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know that the whole creation 13groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now.
