Romans 8:26-27
New Living Translation
26 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. 27 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers[a] in harmony with God’s own will.

Romans 8:26-27
International Standard Version
26 In the same way, the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, since we do not know how to pray as we should. But the Spirit himself intercedes for us[a] with groans too deep for words, 27 and the one who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, for the Spirit[b] intercedes for the saints according to God’s will.[c]
