would ye therefore tarry till they were grown? would ye therefore stay from having husbands? nay, my daughters, for it grieveth me much for your sakes, for the hand of Jehovah is gone forth against me.

Would you keep yourselves till they were old enough? would you keep from having husbands for them? No, my daughters; but I am very sad for you that the hand of the Lord is against me.

σεις ηθελετε προσμενει αυτους εωσου μεγαλωσωσιν; ηθελετε δι' αυτους αναβαλει το να υπανδρευθητε; μη, θυγατερες μου· επειδη επικρανθην πολυ πλεον παρα σεις, οτι η χειρ του Κυριου εξηλθε κατ' εμου.

Would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes that the hand of the Lord is gone out against me.
