“For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory about to be revealed in us;”— Romans 8:18 (LSV)
15for you did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but you received [the] Spirit of adoption in which we cry, “Abba! Father!”
16[This] One—the Spirit—testifies with our spirit, that we are children of God;
17and if children, also heirs, heirs, indeed, of God, and heirs together of Christ—if, indeed, we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.
18For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory about to be revealed in us;
19for the earnest looking out of the creation expects the revelation of the sons of God;
20for to vanity was the creation made subject—not of its will, but because of Him who subjected [it]—in hope,
21that also the creation itself will be set free from the servitude of the corruption to the liberty of the glory of the children of God;
