Romans 8:26-31

26In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for 1we do not know how to pray as we should, but 2the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; 27and 3He who searches the hearts knows what 4the mind of the Spirit is, because He 5intercedes for the 6saints according to the will of God.

28And we know that 7God causes 8all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are 9called according to His purpose. 29For those whom He 10foreknew, He also 11predestined to become 12conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the 13firstborn among many brethren; 30and these whom He 14predestined, He also 15called; and these whom He called, He also 16justified; and these whom He justified, He also 17glorified.

31 18What then shall we say to these things? 19If God is for us, who is against us?
