Romans 8:18

8:18 For I consider that our present sufferings cannot even be compared ¹  to the glory that will be revealed to us.

Romans 8:34

8:34 Who is the one who will condemn? Christ ²  is the one who died (and more than that, he was raised), who is at the right hand of God, and who also is interceding for us.

Romans 8:37

8:37 No, in all these things we have complete victory ³  through him ⁴  who loved us!

[8:18]  ¹ tn Grk “are not worthy [to be compared].”

[8:34]  ² tc ‡ A number of significant and early witnesses, along with several others (Ì^46vid א A C F G L Ψ 6 33 81 104 365 1505 al lat bo), read ᾿Ιησοῦς (Ihsous, “Jesus”) after Χριστός (Cristos, “Christ”) in v. 34. But the shorter reading is not unrepresented (B D 0289 1739 1881 Ï sa). Once ᾿Ιησοῦς got into the text, what scribe would omit it? Although the external evidence is on the side of the longer reading, internally such an expansion seems suspect. The shorter reading is thus preferred. NA²⁷ has the word in brackets, indicating doubt as to its authenticity.

[8:37]  ³ tn BDAG 1034 s.v. ὑπερνικάω states, “as a heightened form of νικᾶν prevail completely ὑπερνικῶμεν we are winning a most glorious victory Ro 8:37.”

[8:37]  ⁴ tn Here the referent could be either God or Christ, but in v. 39 it is God’s love that is mentioned.
