Romans 8:26-34

26Now in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for 1we do not know what to pray for as we should, but 2the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with 3groanings too deep for words; 27and 4He who searches the hearts knows what 5the mind of the Spirit is, because He 6intercedes for the 7saints according to the will of God.

28And we know that 8God 9causes 10all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are 11called according to His purpose. 29For those whom He 12foreknew, He also 13predestined to become 14conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the 15firstborn among many brothers and sisters; 30and these whom He 16predestined, He also 17called; and these whom He called, He also 18justified; and these whom He justified, He also 19glorified.

31 20What then shall we say to these things? 21If God is for us, who is against us? 32He who 22did not spare His own Son, but 23delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? 33Who will bring charges against 24God’s elect? 25God is the one who justifies; 34who is the one who 26condemns? Christ Jesus is He who 27died, but rather, was 28 29raised, who is 30at the right hand of God, who also 31intercedes for us.
