'May' in the Bible

for I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that ye may be established;

and that is, that I may be comforted together among you, through the faith in one another, both yours and mine.

For, when nations that have not a law, by nature may do the things of the law, these not having a law -- to themselves are a law;

If, therefore the uncircumcision the righteousness of the law may keep, shall not his uncircumcision for circumcision be reckoned?

and not, as we are evil spoken of, and as certain affirm us to say -- 'We may do the evil things, that the good ones may come?' whose judgment is righteous.

And we have known that as many things as the law saith, to those in the law it doth speak, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may come under judgment to God;

happy the man to whom the Lord may not reckon sin.'

Because of this it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, for the promise being sure to all the seed, not to that which is of the law only, but also to that which is of the faith of Abraham,

that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?

this knowing, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;

for the married woman to the living husband hath been bound by law, and if the husband may die, she hath been free from the law of the husband;

so, then, the husband being alive, an adulteress she shall be called if she may become another man's; and if the husband may die, she is free from the law, so as not to be an adulteress, having become another man's.

and now we have ceased from the law, that being dead in which we were held, so that we may serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of letter.

that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

and if children, also heirs, heirs, indeed, of God, and heirs together of Christ -- if, indeed, we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.

And, in like manner also, the Spirit doth help our weaknesses; for, what we may pray for, as it behoveth us, we have not known, but the Spirit himself doth make intercession for us with groanings unutterable,

And Isaiah doth cry concerning Israel, 'If the number of the sons of Israel may be as the sand of the sea, the remnant shall be saved;

and how shall they preach, if they may not be sent? according as it hath been written, 'How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!'

And those also, if they may not remain in unbelief, shall be graffed in, for God is able again to graff them in;

For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, of this secret -- that ye may not be wise in your own conceits -- that hardness in part to Israel hath happened till the fulness of the nations may come in;

and this to them is the covenant from Me, when I may take away their sins.'

so also these now did not believe, that in your kindness they also may find kindness;

one doth believe that he may eat all things -- and he who is weak doth eat herbs;

for both, if we may live, to the Lord we live; if also we may die, to the Lord we die; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the Lord's;

for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord.

no longer, therefore, may we judge one another, but this judge ye rather, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offence.

So, then, the things of peace may we pursue, and the things of building up one another;

and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because it is not of faith; and all that is not of faith is sin.

And may the God of the endurance, and of the exhortation, give to you to have the same mind toward one another, according to Christ Jesus;

that with one accord -- with one mouth -- ye may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ;

for my being a servant of Jesus Christ to the nations, acting as priest in the good news of God, that the offering up of the nations may become acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

when I may go on to Spain I will come unto you, for I hope in going through, to see you, and by you to be set forward thither, if of you first, in part, I shall be filled.

that I may be delivered from those not believing in Judea, and that my ministration, that is for Jerusalem, may become acceptable to the saints;

that in joy I may come unto you, through the will of God, and may be refreshed with you,

that ye may receive her in the Lord, as doth become saints, and may assist her in whatever matter she may have need of you -- for she also became a leader of many, and of myself.
