Romans 8:18-30 - The Glory That Is To Be Revealed
18 For I reckon that unworthy are the sufferings of the present season to be compared with the glory about to be revealed towards us; 19 For, the eager outlook of creation, ardently awaiteth the revealing of the sons of God, - 20 For, unto vanity, hath creation been made subject - not by choice, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope 21 That, creation itself also, shall be freed - from the bondage of the decay into the freedom of the glory of the sons of God; 22 For we know that, all creation, is sighing together, and travailing-in-birth-throes together until the present, - 23 And, not only so, but, we ourselves, also, who have the first-fruit of the Spirit - weeven ourselves, within our own selves do sigh, - sonship ardently awaiting - the redeeming of our body; - 24 For, by our hope, have we been saved, - but, hope beheld, is not hope, for, what one beholdeth, why doth he hope for? 25 If, however, what we do not behold we hope for, with endurance, are we ardently awaiting it ; -
