'Hope' in the Bible

The hope of the righteous [those of honorable character and integrity] is joy,But the expectation of the wicked [those who oppose God and ignore His wisdom] comes to nothing.

When the wicked man dies, his expectation will perish;And the hope of [godless] strong men perishes.

Hope deferred makes the heart sick,But when desire is fulfilled, it is a tree of life.

The wicked is overthrown through his wrongdoing,But the righteous has hope and confidence and a refuge [with God] even in death.

Discipline and teach your son while there is hope,And do not [indulge your anger or resentment by imposing inappropriate punishment nor] desire his destruction.

Surely there is a future [and a reward],And your hope and expectation will not be cut off.

Know that [skillful and godly] wisdom is [so very good] for your life and soul;If you find wisdom, then there will be a future and a reward,And your hope and expectation will not be cut off.

Do you see a man [who is unteachable and] wise in his own eyes and full of self-conceit?There is more hope for a fool than for him.

Do you see a [conceited] man who speaks quickly [offering his opinions or answering without thinking]?There is more hope for a [thickheaded] fool than for him.
