35 Who can separate us from the love of Christ? Can afflictionbe or distress or persecutionbf or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written:

Because of you

we are being put to death all day long;bg

we are counted as sheep to be slaughtered.H,bh

37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerorsa through him who loved us.b 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life,c nor angels nor rulers,d nor things present nor things to come,e nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of Godf that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.g
