Romans 8:21-23
Tree of Life Version
21 that the creation itself also will be set free from bondage to decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans together and suffers birth pains until now— 23 and not only creation, but even ourselves. We ourselves, who have the firstfruits[a] of the Ruach, groan inwardly as we eagerly wait for adoption—the redemption of our body.
