'May' in the Bible

holding -- according to the teaching -- to the stedfast word, that he may be able also to exhort in the sound teaching, and the gainsayers to convict;

this testimony is true; for which cause convict them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,

that they may make the young women sober-minded, to be lovers of their husbands, lovers of their children,

sober, pure, keepers of their own houses, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.

discourse sound, irreprehensible, that he who is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say concerning you.

not purloining, but showing all good stedfastness, that the teaching of God our Saviour they may adorn in all things.

teaching us, that denying the impiety and the worldly desires, soberly and righteously and piously we may live in the present age,

that having been declared righteous by His grace, heirs we may become according to the hope of life age-during.

Stedfast is the word; and concerning these things I counsel thee to affirm fully, that they may be thoughtful, to be leading in good works -- who have believed God; these are the good and profitable things to men,

Zenas the lawyer and Apollos bring diligently on their way, that nothing to them may be lacking,

and let them learn -- ours also -- to be leading in good works to the necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.
