You hypocrites! Isaiah made a grand prophecy about you when he said,

"You shall drink my cup," said Jesus, "but it is not for me to grant seats at my right hand and at my left; these belong to the men for whom they have been destined by my Father."

He said to them, "Isaiah made a grand prophecy about you hypocrites ??as it is written, This people honours me with their lips, but their heart is far away from me:

but it is not for me to grant seats at my right or my left hand ??these belong to the men for whom they have been destined."

And all were astounded at this grand display of God. But while all marvelled at all he did, he said to his disciples,

But now ??well, I know whatever you ask God for, he will grant you."

You have not chosen me, it is I who have chosen you, appointing you to go and bear fruit ??fruit that lasts, so that the Father may grant you whatever you ask in my name.

So now, O Lord, consider the threats of these men, and grant that thy servants may be perfectly fearless in speaking thy word,

God lifted him up to his right hand as our pioneer and saviour, in order to grant repentance and remission of sins to Israel.

I have no wish to weary you, but I beg of you to grant us in your courtesy a brief hearing.

May the God who inspires stedfastness and encouragement grant you such harmony with one another, after Christ Jesus,

These men who are keen upon you getting circumcised are just men who want to make a grand display in the flesh ??it is simply to avoid being persecuted for the cross of Christ.

May the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, grant you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation for the knowledge of himself,

praying Him out of the wealth of his glory to grant you a mighty increase of strength by his Spirit in the inner man.

May the Lord of peace himself grant you peace continually, whatever comes. The Lord be with you all.

(may he find favour with the Lord on the great Day! The Lord grant it!). And you know very well what a help he was to me in Ephesus.

The first time I had to defend myself, I had no supporters; everyone deserted me. God grant it may not be brought up against them!

also I will grant him to see the Morning-star.'
