For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Lexham English Bible
16 Therefore we do not lose heart, but even if our outer person is being destroyed, yet our inner person is being renewed day after day. 17 For our momentary light affliction is producing in us an eternal weight of glory beyond all measure and proportion[a], 18 because[b] we are not looking at what is seen, but what is not seen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is not seen is eternal.
