'May' in the Bible
From: Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy. To: The church of the Thessalonians in union with God the Father and the Lord Jesus, the Messiah. May grace and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus, the Messiah, be yours!
But we became gentle in your midst, as a nurse may cherish her own children,
so that you would walk in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. As a result, they are always completing the number of their sins, and wrath has overtaken them at last.
so that no one would be disturbed by these afflictions; for you yourselves know that we have been destined for this.
because now we live, if ye may stand fast in the Lord;
We pray very hard night and day that we may see you again face to face, so that we may equip you with whatever is lacking in your faith.
Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.
And may the Lord cause you to increase and overflow with love for one another and for everyone, just as we also do for you.
To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
As to the rest, then, brethren, we request you, and call upon you in the Lord Jesus, as ye did receive from us how it behoveth you to walk and to please God, that ye may abound the more,
For the purpose of God for you is this: that you may be holy, and may keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh;
So that every one of you may keep his body holy and in honour;
And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.
Because it is God's purpose that our way of life may be not unclean but holy.
And, truly, you are lovers of all the brothers in Macedonia; but it is our desire that your love may be increased still more;
And that you may take pride in being quiet and doing your business, working with your hands as we gave you orders;
That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
But we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, about those who have died, so that you may not grieve like other people who have no hope.
for this to you we say in the word of the Lord, that we who are living -- who do remain over to the presence of the Lord -- may not precede those asleep,
for when they may say, Peace and surety, then sudden destruction doth stand by them, as the travail doth her who is with child, and they shall not escape;
and ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day may catch you as a thief;
so, then, we may not sleep as also the others, but watch and be sober,
who died for us in order that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him.
see no one evil for evil may render to any one, but always that which is good pursue ye, both to one another and to all;
in every situation [no matter what the circumstances] be thankful and continually give thanks to God; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.
Abstain from every form of evil [withdraw and keep away from it].
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely. And may your spirit, soul, and body be kept sound and blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
