Romans 8:26-39

26NowG1161 in the sameG5615 wayG5615 the SpiritG4151 alsoG2532 helpsG4878 our weaknessG769; for 1we do not knowG3609 whatG5101 to prayG4336 for as we shouldG1163, but 2the SpiritG4151 HimselfG846 intercedesG5241 for us with 3groaningsG4726 tooG215 deepG215 forG215 wordsG215; 27and 4He who searchesG2038 the heartsG2588 knowsG3609 whatG5101 5the mindG5427 of the SpiritG4151 is, becauseG3754 He 6intercedesG1793 for the 7saintsG40 accordingG2596 to the will of GodG2316.

28And we knowG3609 that 8GodG2316 9causesG4903 10allG3956 thingsG3956 toG4903 workG4903 togetherG4903 for goodG18 to thoseG3588 who loveG25 GodG2316, to thoseG3588 who are 11calledG2822 accordingG2596 to His purposeG4286. 29For thoseG3739 whomG3739 He 12foreknewG4267, He alsoG2532 13predestinedG4309 to become 14conformedG4832 to the imageG1504 of His SonG5207, soG1519 thatG1519 He would be the 15firstbornG4416 amongG1722 manyG4183 brothersG80 and sisters; 30and theseG3778 whomG3739 He 16predestinedG4309, He alsoG2532 17calledG2564; and theseG3778 whomG3739 He calledG2564, He alsoG2532 18justifiedG1344; and theseG3778 whomG3739 He justifiedG1344, He alsoG2532 19glorifiedG1392.

3120WhatG5101 thenG3767 shall we sayG3004 to theseG3778 thingsG3778? 21IfG1487 GodG2316 is for us, whoG5101 is againstG2596 us? 32He whoG3739 22did not spareG5339 His ownG2398 SonG5207, but 23deliveredG3860 Him overG3860 for us allG3956, howG4459 will He not alsoG2532 with Him freelyG5483 giveG5483 us allG3956 thingsG3956? 33WhoG5101 will bringG1458 chargesG1458 againstG2596 24God’sG2316 electG1588? 25GodG2316 is the one who justifiesG1344; 34whoG5101 is the one who 26condemnsG2632? ChristG5547 JesusG2424 is He who 27diedG599, but ratherG3123, was 2829raisedG1453, whoG3739 is 30at the rightG1188 handG1188 of GodG2316, whoG3739 alsoG2532 31intercedesG1793 for us. 35WhoG5101 will separateG5563 us from 32the loveG26 of 33ChristG5547? Will 34tribulationG2347, orG2228 troubleG4730, orG2228 35persecutionG1375, orG2228 36famineG3042, orG2228 37nakednessG1132, orG2228 38dangerG2794, orG2228 swordG3162? 36JustG2531 asG2531 it is writtenG1125: “39For Your sakeG1752 we are killedG2289 allG3650 dayG2250 long; We were regardedG3049 as sheepG4263 to be slaughteredG4967.” 37But in allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 we overwhelminglyG5245 40conquerG5245 throughG1223 41Him who lovedG25 us. 38For I am convincedG3982 that neitherG3777 42deathG2288, norG3777 lifeG2222, norG3777 43angelsG32, norG3777 principalitiesG746, norG3777 44thingsG1764 presentG1764, norG3777 thingsG3195 toG3195 comeG3195, norG3777 powersG1411, 39norG3777 heightG5313, norG3777 depthG899, norG3777 anyG5100 otherG2087 createdG2937 thingG2937 will be ableG1410 to separateG5563 us from 45the loveG26 of GodG2316 that is 46in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962.
