though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they should deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only should be delivered, but the land should be desolate.

Even if these three men were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep safe their sons or daughters, but only themselves, and the land would be made waste.

και οι τρεις ουτοι ανδρες ευρισκοντο εν μεσω αυτης, ζω εγω, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος, δεν ηθελον σωσει ουτε υιους ουτε θυγατερας· μονοι ουτοι ηθελον σωθη, η δε γη ηθελεν αφανισθη.

Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord God, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
