Romans 8:24-26
International Children’s Bible
24 We were saved, and we have this hope. If we see what we are waiting for, then that is not really hope. People do not hope for something they already have. 25 But we are hoping for something that we do not have yet. We are waiting for it patiently.
26 Also, the Spirit helps us. We are very weak, but the Spirit helps us with our weakness. We do not know how to pray as we should. But the Spirit himself speaks to God for us, even begs God for us. The Spirit speaks to God with deep feelings that words cannot explain.

Romans 8:24-26
New International Version
24 For in this hope we were saved.(A) But hope that is seen is no hope at all.(B) Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.(C)
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit(D) himself intercedes for us(E) through wordless groans.
