23 Not only this, but we ourselves also, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves while we await eagerly our adoption, the redemption of our body.
24 For in hope we were saved, but hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what he sees?
25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we await it eagerly with patient endurance.
26 And likewise also, the Spirit helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as one ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with unexpressed groanings.
27 And the one who searches our hearts knows what the mindset of the Spirit is, because he intercedes on behalf of the saints according to the will of God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose,
29 because those whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he should be the firstborn among many brothers.
