Romans 8:22-24
International Standard Version
22 For we know that all the rest of creation has been groaning with the pains of childbirth up to the present time. 23 However, not only the creation, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit also groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For we were saved with this hope in mind.[a] Now a hope that can be observed is not really hope, for who hopes for what can be seen?
