^{24 Ref} for in hope we were saved, and hope beheld is not hope; for what any one doth behold, why also doth he hope for `it'?

^{25 Ref} and if what we do not behold we hope for, through continuance we expect `it'.

^{26 Ref} And, in like manner also, the Spirit doth help our weaknesses; for, what we may pray for, as it behoveth `us', we have not known, but the Spirit himself doth make intercession for us with groanings unutterable,

^{24 Ref} For in hope were we saved: but hope that is seen is not hope: for who hopeth for that which he seeth?

^{25 Ref} But if we hope for that which we see not, `then' do we with patience wait for it.

^{26 Ref} And in like manner the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity: for we know not how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself maketh intercession for `us' with groanings which cannot be uttered;

^{24 Ref} For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

^{25 Ref} But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

^{26 Ref} Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
