Romans 8:15-21

15For you 1have not receivedG2983 a spiritG4151 of slaveryG1397 2leadingG1519 to fearG5401 againG3825, but you 3have receivedG2983 4a spiritG4151 of adoptionG5206 asG5206 sonsG5206 and daughters by whichG3739 we cryG2896 outG2896, “5AbbaG5! 6FatherG3962!” 16The SpiritG4151 HimselfG846 7testifiesG4828 with our spiritG4151 that we are 8childrenG5043 of GodG2316, 17and ifG1487 childrenG5043, 9heirsG2818 alsoG2532, heirsG2818 of GodG2316 and fellowG4789 heirsG4789 with ChristG5547, 10ifG1512 indeedG1512 we sufferG4841 with Him soG2443 thatG2443 we may alsoG2532 be glorifiedG4888 with Him.

18For I considerG3049 that the sufferingsG3804 of thisG3588 presentG3568 timeG2540 11are not worthyG514 to be comparedG4314 withG4314 the 12gloryG1391 that is to be revealedG601 to us. 19For the 13eagerlyG603 awaitingG603 creationG2937 waitsG553 for 14the revealingG602 of the 15sonsG5207 and daughters of GodG2316. 20For the creationG2937 16was subjectedG5293 to 17futilityG3153, not willinglyG1635, but 18becauseG1223 of Him who subjectedG5293 it, 19in hopeG1680 21that 20the creationG2937 itselfG846 alsoG2532 will be setG1659 freeG1659 from its slaveryG1397 to corruptionG5356 into the freedomG1657 of the gloryG1391 of the childrenG5043 of GodG2316.
