'Hope' in the Bible
And our hope for you is steadfast because we know that as you share in our sufferings, so also you will share in our comfort.
He delivered us from so great a risk of death, and he will deliver us. We have set our hope on him that he will deliver us yet again,
For we do not write you anything other than what you can read and also understand. But I hope that you will understand completely
Therefore, since we have such a hope, we behave with great boldness,
Therefore, because we know the fear of the Lord, we try to persuade people, but we are well known to God, and I hope we are well known to your consciences too.
Nor do we boast beyond certain limits in the work done by others, but we hope that as your faith continues to grow, our work may be greatly expanded among you according to our limits,
And I hope that you will realize that we have not failed the test!
