Romans 8:14-17
New Living Translation
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children[a] of God.
15 So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children.[b] Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”[c] 16 For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children. 17 And since we are his children, we are his heirs. In fact, together with Christ we are heirs of God’s glory. But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering.

Romans 8:14-17
New American Standard Bible
14 For all who are (A)being led by the Spirit of God, these are (B)sons and daughters of God. 15 For you (C)have not received a spirit of slavery [a]leading to fear again, but you (D)have received [b]a spirit of adoption as sons and daughters by which we cry out, “(E)Abba! [c]Father!” 16 The Spirit Himself (F)testifies with our spirit that we are (G)children of God, 17 and if children, (H)heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, (I)if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.
