Exegesis
The hina clause introduces purpose, and katischysēte {κατισχύσητε | ka-tis-khý-sē-te} marks the intended outcome, a decisive enabling rather than mere religious feeling.
In context — Luke 21:36
But stay awake at all times, praying so that you may prevail to escape all these things that are about to happen, and to stand before the Son of Man .
