Exegesis
The clause closes with hestēka {ἕστηκα | héstēka} “I stand,” a perfect tense verb portraying Paul’s present, settled stance that results from past actions, followed by the nominative participle krinomenos {κρινόμενος | krinómenos} “being judged,” which is circumstantial and indicates his concurrent experience of ongoing legal scrutiny. In translation, this structure is rendered with a main clause (“I stand being judged” / “I am on trial”) and a causal or explanatory phrase (“for the hope of the promise” / “because of the hope in the promise”) to reflect how the Greek presents Paul’s trial as grounded in God’s historic promise to the patriarchs.
In context — Acts 26:6
And now I stand being judged for the hope of the promise that was made by God to our fathers .
