For in hope were we saved: but hope that is seen is not hope: for who hopeth for that which he seeth?

Forª we are savedª° by hope:ª butª hopeª that is seenª° isª° notª hope:ª forª whatª a manª seeth,ª° whyª doth he²° yetª hope for?ª°

Forª wee are sauedª° by hope:ª butª hopeª that is seene,ª° isª° notª hope:ª forª whatª a manª seeth,ª° whyª doth he²° yetª hope for?ª°

For in hope we live: but hope that is seen is not hope; for if we see it, why hope we for it?

Because we live in hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope: for if we saw it, how should we hope for it?

τῇ γὰρ ἐλπίδι ἐσώθημεν: ἐλπὶς δὲ βλεπομένη οὐκ ἔστιν ἐλπίς, ὃ γὰρ βλέπει τίς ἐλπίζει;

Unto-the-one therefore unto-an-expectation we-were-saved; an-expectation moreover being-viewed not it-be an-expectation, to-which therefore it-vieweth what-one it-expecteth-to?
