'Wish' in the Bible
Yet I wish that all men were even as I myself am. However, each man has his own gift from God, one in this manner, and another in that.
If one of the unbelievers invites you and you want to go, eat anything that is set before you without asking questions for conscience’ sake.
Now I wish that you all spoke in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy; and greater is one who prophesies than one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may receive edifying.
For I do not wish to see you now just in passing; for I hope to remain with you for some time, if the Lord permits.
