For this reason I have asked to see you and talk with you. It is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”

I share Israel’s hope. That is why I am held with this chain. So I have asked to see you and talk with you.”

For this reason, therefore, I have asked to see you and speak with you, since it is because of the hope of Israel that I am wearing this chain.”

I asked you to come here today so we could get acquainted and so I could explain to you that I am bound with this chain because I believe that the hope of Israel— the Messiah— has already come.”

For this reason I’ve asked to see you and speak to you. In fact, it is for the hope of Israel that I’m wearing this chain.”

For this reason, therefore, I requested to see you and to speak with you, since I am wearing this chain for the sake of the hope of Israel.”

And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers:Unto which[ promise] our twelve tribes, instantly serving[ God] day and night, hope to come. For which hope’s sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the Jews.

And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.

For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
