Romans 8:20-23

New American Standard Bible

²⁰ For the creation ^(A)was subjected to ^(B)futility, not willingly, but ^(C)because of Him who subjected it, ^[a]in hope ²¹ that ^(D)the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. ²² For we know that the whole creation ^(E)groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. ^23 (F)And not only that, but also we ourselves, having ^(G)the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves ^(H)groan within ourselves, ^(I)waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons and daughters, ^(J)the redemption of our body.
