| NET © Notes |
1 tn Grk “according to my eager expectation and hope.” The κατά (kata) phrase is taken as governing the following ὅτι (Joti) clause (“that I will not be ashamed…”); the idea could be expressed more verbally as “I confidently hope that I will not be ashamed…” 2 tn Or possibly, “be intimidated, be put to shame.” 3 tn Grk “whether by life or by death.” |
