Romans 8:21-23
Worldwide English (New Testament)
21 And it hoped to be free like God's children when they are made great.
22 We know that the whole world has been crying. It has had much pain until now.
23 And not the world only, but we ourselves also cry out. We have the first blessing God gives of his Spirit. But we cry out in our hearts. We are waiting for God to finish making us his sons. Then our bodies will be set free.
