And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

And if those days had not been made short there would have been no salvation for any, but because of the saints those days will be made short.

Και αν δεν συνετεμνοντο αι ημεραι εκειναι, δεν ηθελε σωθη ουδεμια σαρξ· δια τους εκλεκτους ομως θελουσι συντμηθη αι ημεραι εκειναι.

And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
