Romans 8:17-24

English Standard Version

¹⁷ and if children, then ^(A)heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, ^(B)provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

Future Glory

¹⁸ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time ^(C)are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. ¹⁹ For the creation waits with eager longing for ^(D)the revealing of the sons of God. ²⁰ For the creation ^(E)was subjected to futility, not willingly, but ^(F)because of him who subjected it, in hope ²¹ that ^(G)the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. ²² For we know that ^(H)the whole creation ^(I)has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. ²³ And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have ^(J)the firstfruits of the Spirit, ^(K)groan inwardly as ^(L)we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, ^(M)the redemption of our bodies. ²⁴ For ^(N)in this hope we were saved. Now ^(O)hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?
