23. and not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, we also groan within ourselves as we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.
24. For in hope we were saved. Now hope that sees for itself is not hope. For who hopes for what one sees?
25. But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait with endurance.
26. In the same way, the Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes with inexpressible groanings.
27. And the one who searches hearts knows what is the intention of the Spirit, because it intercedes for the holy ones according to God’s will.
28. We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.
