Romans 8:20-22

Twentieth_Century(i) 20 For Nature was made subject to imperfection-not by its own choice, but owing to him who made it so-- 21 Yet not without the hope that some day Nature, also, will be set free from enslavement to decay, and will attain to the freedom which will mark the Glory of the Children of God. 22 We know, indeed, that all Nature alike has been groaning in the pains of labor to this very hour.
