Romans 8:21-23 that even nature itself might finally be set free from its bondage to decay, so as to share the glorious freedom of God's children.

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ that even nature itself might finally be set free from its bondage to decay, so as to share the glorious freedom of God's children. ²² Yes, we know that all nature has gone on groaning in agony together till the present moment. ²³ Not only that but this too, we ourselves who enjoy the Spirit as a foretaste of the future, even we ourselves, keep up our inner groanings while we wait to enter upon our adoption as God's sons at the redemption of our bodies.
