For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers together until now.

Now we know that God’s judgment is in accordance with truth against those who practice such things.

For we know that the law is spiritual – but I am unspiritual, sold into slavery to sin.

And we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose,

Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world may be held accountable to God.

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how we should pray, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings.
