Future Glory

¹⁸ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time ^(A)are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. ¹⁹ For the creation waits with eager longing for ^(B)the revealing of the sons of God.

²³ And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have ^(A)the firstfruits of the Spirit, ^(B)groan inwardly as ^(C)we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, ^(D)the redemption of our bodies.

¹⁷ For ^(A)this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison,

⁵ For through the Spirit, by faith, we ourselves eagerly ^(A)wait for the hope of righteousness.
