26 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. 27 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers[a] in harmony with God’s own will. 28 And we know that God causes everything to work together[b] for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. 29 For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn[c] among many brothers and sisters. 30 And having chosen them, he called them to come to him. And having called them, he gave them right standing with himself. And having given them right standing, he gave them his glory.

26 Además, el Espíritu Santo nos ayuda en nuestra debilidad. Por ejemplo, nosotros no sabemos qué quiere Dios que le pidamos en oración, pero el Espíritu Santo ora por nosotros con gemidos que no pueden expresarse con palabras. 27 Y el Padre, quien conoce cada corazón, sabe lo que el Espíritu dice, porque el Espíritu intercede por nosotros, los creyentes,[a] en armonía con la voluntad de Dios. 28 Y sabemos que Dios hace que todas las cosas cooperen[b] para el bien de quienes lo aman y son llamados según el propósito que él tiene para ellos. 29 Pues Dios conoció a los suyos de antemano y los eligió para que llegaran a ser como su Hijo, a fin de que su Hijo fuera el hijo mayor[c] entre muchos hermanos. 30 Después de haberlos elegido, Dios los llamó para que se acercaran a él; y una vez que los llamó, los puso en la relación correcta con él; y luego de ponerlos en la relación correcta con él, les dio su gloria.

26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit(A) himself intercedes for us(B) through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts(C) knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes(D) for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good(E) of those who love him, who[a] have been called(F) according to his purpose.(G) 29 For those God foreknew(H) he also predestined(I) to be conformed to the image of his Son,(J) that he might be the firstborn(K) among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined,(L) he also called;(M) those he called, he also justified;(N) those he justified, he also glorified.(O)
