Romans 8:20 in Context — Romans 8
18 Porque tengo por cierto que lo que en este tiempo se padece, no es de comparar con la gloria venidera que en nosotros ha de ser manifestada.
19 Porque el continuo anhelar de las criaturas espera la manifestación de los hijos de Dios.
20 Porque las criaturas sujetas fueron á vanidad, no de grado, mas por causa del que las sujetó con esperanza,
21 Que también las mismas criaturas serán libradas de la servidumbre de corrupción en la libertad gloriosa de los hijos de Dios.
22 Porque sabemos que todas las criaturas gimen á una, y á una están de parto hasta ahora.
