For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.

For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

Διοτι ο λογος του Θεου ειναι ζων και ενεργος και κοπτερωτερος υπερ πασαν διστομον μαχαιραν και διερχεται μεχρι διαιρεσεως ψυχης τε και πνευματος, αρμων τε και μυελων, και διερευνα τους διαλογισμους και τας εννοιας της καρδιας·

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
