This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

That I may cut off occasion (hina ekkopsō tēn aphormēn). Purpose clause with hina and first aorist active subjunctive of ekkoptō, old verb to cut out or off (Mat 3:10; Mat 5:30). See note on 2Co 5:12 for aphormēn.

From them which desire an occasion (tōn thelontōn aphormēn). Ablative case after ekkopsō. There are always some hunting for occasions to start something against preachers.

They may be found (heurethōsin). First aorist passive subjunctive of heuriskō, to find with final conjunction hina.
