Romans 8:20-39 ▼

20 Because the creature is subiect to vanitie, not wyllyng, but for hym which hath subdued the same in hope.

21 For the same creature shalbe made free from the bondage of corruptio, into the glorious libertie of ye sonnes of God.

22 For we knowe, that euery creature groneth with vs also, and trauayleth in payne, euen vnto this tyme.

23 Not only they , but we also which haue the first fruites of the spirite, and we our selues mourne in our selues, and wayte for the adoption, euen the deliueraunce of our body.

24 For we are saued by hope: But hope that is seene, is no hope. For howe can a man hope for that which he seeth?

25 But and yf we hope for that we see not, the do we with pacience abide for it.

26 Lykewyse, the spirite also helpeth our infirmities. For we knowe not what to desire as we ought: but ye spirite maketh great intercession for vs, with gronynges, which can not be expressed.

27 And he that searcheth the heartes, knoweth what is the meanyng of the spirite: for he maketh intercession for the saintes accordyng to the pleasure of God.

28 For we knowe yt all thinges worke for the best, vnto them that loue God, to them which also are called of purpose.

29 For those which he knewe before, he also dyd predestinate, that they shoulde be lyke fashioned vnto the shape of his sonne, that he myght be ye first begotten among many brethren.

30 Moreouer, whom he dyd predestinate, the also he called. And whom he called, them also he iustified: And whom he iustified, them he also glorified.

31 What shall we then say to these thynges? If God be on our syde, who can be agaynst vs?

32 Which spared not his owne sonne, but gaue hym for vs all: Howe shall he not with hym also geue vs all thynges?

33 Who shall lay any thyng to the charge of Gods chosen? It is God that iustifieth:

34 Who is he that can condempne? It is Christe which dyed, yea rather which is raysed agayne, which is also on the ryght hande of God, and maketh intercession for vs.

35 Who shall seperate vs from the loue of God? Shall tribulation or anguishe, or persecution, either hunger, either nakednesse, either peryll, either sworde?

36 As it is written: For thy sake are we kylled all daye long, and are counted as sheepe for the slaughter.

37 Neuerthelesse, in all these thinges we ouercome, through hym that loued vs.

38 For I am sure, that neither death, neither lyfe, neither angels, nor rule, neither power, neither thynges present, neither thynges to come,

39 Neither heygth nor deapth, neither any other creature, shalbe able to seperate vs from the loue of God, which is in Christe Iesu our Lorde.
