“(G)For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
37 But in all these things we overwhelmingly (H)conquer through (I)Him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither (J)death, nor life, nor (K)angels, nor principalities, nor (L)things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from (M)the love of God that is (N)in Christ Jesus our Lord.
