'May' in the Bible

Remembering your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy,

May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains.

May the Lord grant that he obtain mercy from Him on that day. And you know very well how much he ministered at Ephesus.

This is why I endure all things for the elect: so that they also may obtain salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.

Then they may come to their senses and escape the Devil’s trap, having been captured by him to do his will.

so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

At my first defense, no one stood by me, but everyone deserted me. May it not be counted against them.
