Romans 8:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 The same Spirit beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
17 [a]If we be children, we are also [b]heirs, even the heirs of God, and heirs annexed with Christ: [c]if so be that we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
18 [d]For I [e]count that the afflictions of this present time are not worthy of the glory, which shall be showed unto us.

- Romans 8:18 Thirdly that this glory which we look for, doth a thousand parts surmount the misery of our afflictions.
- Romans 8:18 All being well considered, I gather.

New International Version
16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit(A) that we are God’s children.(B) 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs(C)—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings(D) in order that we may also share in his glory.(E)
Present Suffering and Future Glory
18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.(F)
