³ for I was wishing, I myself, to be anathema from the Christ -- for my brethren, my kindred, according to the flesh,

³² and now, if Thou takest away their sin -- and if not -- blot me, I pray thee, out of Thy book which Thou hast written.'

⁸ but even if we or a messenger out of heaven may proclaim good news to you different from what we did proclaim to you -- anathema let him be!

¹³ Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,'

²² if any one doth not love the Lord Jesus Christ -- let him be anathema! The Lord hath come!

³ wherefore, I give you to understand that no one, in the Spirit of God speaking, saith Jesus `is' anathema, and no one is able to say Jesus `is' Lord, except in the Holy Spirit.

¹⁴ if by any means I shall arouse to jealousy mine own flesh, and shall save some of them,

²⁴ and having seen a certain one suffering injustice, he did defend, and did justice to the oppressed, having smitten the Egyptian;

²⁵ and he was supposing his brethren to understand that God through his hand doth give salvation; and they did not understand.

²⁶ `On the succeeding day, also, he shewed himself to them as they are striving, and urged them to peace, saying, Men, brethren are ye, wherefore do ye injustice to one another?

⁶ for how do I endure when I have looked on the evil that doth find my people? and how do I endure when I have looked on the destruction of my kindred?'

⁴⁴ And Saul saith, `Thus doth God do, and thus doth He add, for thou dost certainly die, Jonathan.'

²⁴ And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjureth the people, saying, `Cursed `is' the man who eateth food till the evening, and I have been avenged of mine enemies;' and none of the people hath tasted food.

¹⁷ and the city hath been devoted, it and all that `is' in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot doth live, she and all who `are' with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;

¹⁸ and surely ye have kept from the devoted thing, lest ye devote `yourselves', and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;

²³ his corpse doth not remain on the tree, for thou dost certainly bury him in that day -- for a thing lightly esteemed of God `is' the hanged one -- and thou dost not defile thy ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee -- an inheritance.

¹⁴ and Laban saith to him, `Only my bone and my flesh `art' thou;' and he dwelleth with him a month of days.
