But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness,

But take no part in wrong and foolish talk, for those who do so will go farther into evil,

Τας δε βεβηλους ματαιοφωνιας φευγε· διοτι θελουσι προχωρησει εις πλειοτεραν ασεβειαν,

But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
