¹⁶ Of the Pharisees, therefore, certain said, `This man is not from God, because the sabbath he doth not keep;' others said, `How is a man -- a sinful one -- able to do such signs?' and there was a division among them.

³⁸ and now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone, because if this counsel or this work may be of men, it will be overthrown,

³⁹ and if it be of God, ye are not able to overthrow it, lest perhaps also ye be found fighting against God.'
