11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead, shall also quicken your mortal bodies, by his Spirit that [aa]dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore brethren, we are debtors not to the flesh, to live after the flesh:
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye mortify the deeds of the body by the Spirit, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the Spirit of bondage, to fear again: but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The same Spirit beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
17 If we be children, we are also heirs, even the heirs of God, and heirs annexed with Christ: if so be that we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
18 For I count that the afflictions of this present time are not worthy of the glory, which shall be showed unto us.
19 For the fervent desire of the creature waiteth when the sons of God shall be revealed,
20 Because the creature is subject to vanity, not of its own will, but by reason of him, which hath subdued it under hope,
21 Because the creature also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the sons of God.
22 For we know that every creature groaneth with us also, and travaileth in pain together unto this present.
23 And not only the creature, but we also which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we do sigh in ourselves, waiting for the adoption, even the redemption of our body.
24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen, is not hope: for how can a man hope for that which he seeth?
25 But if we hope for that we see not, we do with patience abide for it.
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what to pray as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh request for us with sighs, which cannot be expressed.
27 But he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what is the meaning of the Spirit: for he maketh request for the Saints, according to the will of God.
