Romans 8:18-30

18For I considerG3049 that the sufferingsG3804 of thisG3588 presentG3568 timeG2540 1are not worthyG514 to be compared with the 2gloryG1391 that is to be revealedG601 to us. 19For the 3anxiousG603 longingG603 of the creationG2937 waitsG553 eagerlyG553 for 4the revealingG602 of the 5sonsG5207 of GodG2316. 20For the creationG2937 6was subjectedG5293 to 7futilityG3153, not willinglyG1635, but 8becauseG1223 of Him who subjectedG5293 it, 9in hopeG1680 21that 10the 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 11groansG4959 and suffersG4944 the painsG4944 of childbirthG4944 togetherG4959G4944 untilG891 nowG3568. 2312And not onlyG3440 this, but alsoG2532 we ourselvesG846, havingG2192 13the firstG536 fruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 we ourselvesG846 14groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, 15waitingG553 eagerlyG553 for our adoptionG5206 as sonsG5206, 16the redemptionG629 of our bodyG4983. 24For 17in hopeG1680 we have been savedG4982, but 18hopeG1680 that is seenG991 is not hopeG1680; for whoG5100 hopesG1680 for whatG3739 he already seesG991? 25But 19ifG1487 we hopeG1679 for whatG3739 we do not seeG991, with perseveranceG5281 we waitG553 eagerlyG553 for it.

26In the sameG5615 wayG5615 the SpiritG4151 alsoG2532 helpsG4878 our weaknessG769; for 20we do not knowG3609 howG5101 to prayG4336 as we shouldG1163, but 21the SpiritG4151 HimselfG846 intercedesG5241 for us with groaningsG4726 tooG215 deepG215 for wordsG215; 27and 22He who searchesG2045 the heartsG2588 knowsG3609 whatG5101 23the mindG5427 of the SpiritG4151 is, becauseG3754 He 24intercedesG1793 for the 25saintsG40 accordingG2596 to the will of GodG2316.

28And we knowG3609 that 26GodG2316 causesG4903 27allG3956 thingsG3956 to workG4903 togetherG4903 for goodG18 to thoseG3588 who loveG25 GodG2316, to thoseG3588 who are 28calledG2822 accordingG2596 to His purposeG4286. 29For thoseG3739 whomG3739 He 29foreknewG4267, He alsoG2532 30predestinedG4309 to become 31conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of His SonG5207, soG1519 that He would be the 32firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brethrenG80; 30and theseG3778 whomG3739 He 33predestinedG4309, He alsoG2532 34calledG2564; and theseG3778 whomG3739 He calledG2564, He alsoG2532 35justifiedG1344; and theseG3778 whomG3739 He justifiedG1344, He alsoG2532 36glorifiedG1392.
