18For I lreckon that mthe sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with nthe glory which shall be revealed in us. 19For the oearnest expectation of the creature pwaiteth for ppthe manifestation of the sons of God. 20For qthe creature was made subject to rvanity, not willingly, but sby reason of him who hath subjected the same, in hope, 21because the creature itself also shall be tdelivered from the bondage of ucorruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22For we know that the vwhole creation wgroaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 23And xnot only they, but ourselves also, gwhich have ythe firstfruits of the Spirit, zeven we ourselves groan within ourselves, awaiting for bthe adoption, to wit, the credemption of our body. 24For we are saved by hope: but dhope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? 25But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience await for it. 26Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for ewe know not what we should pray for as we ought: but fthe Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27And ghe that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is hthe mind of the Spirit, because ihe maketh intercession for the saints jaccording to the will of God.
