Romans 8:26-34

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²⁶ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes^[a] with groanings too deep for words.^{(A) 27} And God,^[b] who searches hearts, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit^[c] intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.^(B)

²⁸ We know that all things work together^[d] for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.^{(C) 29} For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn within a large family.^{[e](D) 30} And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.^(E)

God’s Love in Christ Jesus

³¹ What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?^{(F) 32} He who did not withhold his own Son but gave him up for all of us, how will he not with him also give us everything else? ³³ Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.^{(G) 34} Who is to condemn? It is Christ^[f] who died, or rather, who was raised, who is also at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.^(H)
