20 For the creature has been subordinated to mortality, not willingly, but through Him who subordinated it; 21 therefore indeed pursuant to hope, the creature itself shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of God. 22 For we know that all creation groans together and travails together until now; 23 and not only so, but we ourselves, having the earnest of the Spirit, and we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of sons, the redemption of our body. Romans 8:20-23, Godbey New Testament. Public domain.
