Romans 8:21-32

21that 1the 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 2groansG4959 and suffersG4944 the painsG4944 of childbirthG4944 togetherG4959 G4944 untilG891 nowG3568. 23 3And not onlyG3440 this, but alsoG2532 we ourselvesG846, havingG2192 4the firstG536 fruitsG536 of the SpiritG4151, evenG2532 we ourselvesG846 5groanG4727 withinG1722 ourselvesG1438, 6waitingG553 eagerlyG553 for our adoptionG5206 as sonsG5206, 7the redemptionG629 of our bodyG4983. 24For 8in hopeG1680 we have been savedG4982, but 9hopeG1680 that is seenG991 is not hopeG1680; for whoG5100 hopesG1680 for whatG3739 he already seesG991? 25But 10ifG1487 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 11we do not knowG3609 howG5101 to prayG4336 as we shouldG1163, but 12the SpiritG4151 HimselfG846 intercedesG5241 for us with groaningsG4726 tooG215 deepG215 for wordsG215; 27and 13He who searchesG2045 the heartsG2588 knowsG3609 whatG5101 14the mindG5427 of the SpiritG4151 is, becauseG3754 He 15intercedesG1793 for the 16saintsG40 accordingG2596 to the will of GodG2316.

28And we knowG3609 that 17GodG2316 causesG4903 18allG3956 thingsG3956 to workG4903 togetherG4903 for goodG18 to thoseG3588 who loveG25 GodG2316, to thoseG3588 who are 19calledG2822 accordingG2596 to His purposeG4286. 29For thoseG3739 whomG3739 He 20foreknewG4267, He alsoG2532 21predestinedG4309 to become 22conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of His SonG5207, soG1519 that He would be the 23firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brethrenG80; 30and theseG3778 whomG3739 He 24predestinedG4309, He alsoG2532 25calledG2564; and theseG3778 whomG3739 He calledG2564, He alsoG2532 26justifiedG1344; and theseG3778 whomG3739 He justifiedG1344, He alsoG2532 27glorifiedG1392.

31 28WhatG5101 thenG3767 shall we sayG3004 to theseG3778 thingsG3778? 29IfG1487 GodG2316 is for us, whoG5101 is againstG2596 us? 32He whoG3739 30did not spareG5339 His ownG2398 SonG5207, but 31deliveredG3860 Him over for us allG3956, howG4459 will He not alsoG2532 with Him freelyG5483 giveG5483 us allG3956 thingsG3956?
