Romans 8:17-23

17and ifG1487 childrenG5043, 1heirsG2818 alsoG2532, heirsG2818 of GodG2316 and fellowG4789 heirsG4789 with ChristG5547, 2ifG1512 indeedG1512 we sufferG4841 with Him soG2443 that we may alsoG2532 be glorifiedG4888 with Him.

18For I considerG3049 that the sufferingsG3804 of thisG3588 presentG3568 timeG2540 3are not worthyG514 to be compared with the 4gloryG1391 that is to be revealedG601 to us. 19For the 5anxiousG603 longingG603 of the creationG2937 waitsG553 eagerlyG553 for 6the revealingG602 of the 7sonsG5207 of GodG2316. 20For the creationG2937 8was subjectedG5293 to 9futilityG3153, not willinglyG1635, but 10becauseG1223 of Him who subjectedG5293 it, 11in hopeG1680 21that 12the creationG2937 itselfG846 alsoG2532 will be setG1659 freeG1659 from its slaveryG1397 to corruptionG5356 into the freedomG1657 of the gloryG1391 of the childrenG5043 of GodG2316. 22For we knowG3609 that the wholeG3956 creationG2937 13groansG4959 and suffersG4944 the painsG4944 of childbirthG4944 togetherG4959G4944 untilG891 nowG3568. 2314And not onlyG3440 this, but alsoG2532 we ourselvesG846, havingG2192 15the firstG536 fruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 we ourselvesG846 16groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, 17waitingG553 eagerlyG553 for our adoptionG5206 as sonsG5206, 18the redemptionG629 of our bodyG4983.
