that I may make it clear, as I ought to speak.

See the chapter Copy

for which I am an ambassador in chains; that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

And now, Lord, look upon their threats, and grant to thy servants to speak thy word with all boldness,

Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders, making the most of the time.
