'Hope' in the Bible

Our hope for you is unshaken, because we know that as you share our sufferings, you also share our comfort.

He has rescued us from a terrible death, and he will continue to rescue us. Yes, he is the one on whom we have set our hope, and he will rescue us again,

For what we are writing you is nothing more than what you can read and also understand. I hope you will understand completely,

Therefore, since we have such a hope, we speak very boldly,

Therefore, since we know what it means to fear the Lord, we try to persuade people. We ourselves are perfectly known to God. I hope we are also really known to your consciences.

We are not boasting about work done by others that cannot be evaluated. On the contrary, we cherish the hope that your faith may continue to grow and enlarge our sphere of action among you until it overflows.

I hope you will realize that we haven't failed our test.
