→‎the first clause above: implied concept here should be translated as "good:" not merely "things" or "what"

English translations of the first clause above have a bit of a selfish connotation to it, which runs counter to [[Christianity]].  The flaw in most English translations is how it renders ἐλπιζομένων (elpizomenōn) as hope rather than imputing a concept of good.

Rather than the imprecise "things" or "what" for what is merely in implied in the Greek, the implication there should be translated as "good", as in "good hoped for," or simply "hoped-for good."
