ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ, in every season. κατισχύσητε, that ye may have power, “prevail” (R.V [180]). καταξιωθῆτε (T.R.), “may be accounted worthy” (A.V [181]), also gives a very good meaning, even in some respects preferable. σταθῆναι, to stand in the judgment (so, many), or to be presented to, placed before. So most recent commentators. Either gives a good sense (Bleek).
