“But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.”
But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. — The present tense ἀπεκδέχομαι (apekdechomai, "await") indicates the believer's stance toward eschatological fulfillment: patient endurance. The future-orientation shapes present conduct; believers are those who wait.
