Romans 8:24

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]?

Young's Literal Translation

In The King James Version

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?

In Context

23And not only [so], but also we ourselves, having the first-fruit of the Spirit, we also ourselves in ourselves do groan, adoption expecting — the redemption of our body;

25and if what we do not behold we hope for, through continuance we expect [it].
