    32He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things?

    33Who will say anything against the saints of God? It is God who makes us clear from evil;

    34Who will give a decision against us? It is Christ Jesus who not only was put to death, but came again from the dead, who is now at the right hand of God, taking our part.

    35Who will come between us and the love of Christ? Will trouble, or pain, or cruel acts, or the need of food or of clothing, or danger, or the sword?

    36As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.

    37But we are able to overcome all these things and more through his love.

    38For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers,

    39Or things on high, or things under the earth, or anything which is made, will be able to come between us and the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    29Because those of whom he had knowledge before they came into existence, were marked out by him to be made like his Son, so that he might be the first among a band of brothers:

    30And those who were marked out by him were named; and those who were named were given righteousness; and to those to whom he gave righteousness, in the same way he gave glory.
