Exegesis
The optative verb plērōsai {πληρώσαι | plē-ró-sai} expresses a wish-prayer, typical of benedictory language, with hymas {ὑμᾶς | hy-mâs} as its direct object, and the genitive phrase pasēs charas kai eirēnēs {πάσης χαρᾶς καὶ εἰρήνης | pá-sēs kha-râs kaí ei-rḗ-nēs} indicating the content with which the readers are to be filled.
In context — Romans 15:13
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit .
