AΩ
10

And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the Lord.

Amos 6:10 · KJV

Translations

ASV

And when a man’s uncle shall take him up, even he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is in the innermost parts of the house, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No; then shall he say, Hold thy peace; for we may not make mention of the name of Jehovah.

BBE

And when a man's relation, even the one who is responsible for burning his body, lifting him up to take his bones out of the house, says to him who is in the inmost part of the house, Is there still anyone with you? and he says, No; then he will say, Keep quiet, for the name of the Lord may not be named.

GRK

Και ο σηκονων εκαστον αυτων θειος η ο καιων αυτον, δια να εκβαλη τα οστα εκ του οικου, θελει ειπει προς τον ευρισκομενον εις τα ενδοτερα της οικιας, Ειναι τις ετι μετα σου; Και αυτος θελει ειπει, Ουχι. Τοτε θελει ειπει, Σιωπα· διοτι δεν ειναι πλεον καιρος να αναφερωμεν το ονομα του Κυριου.

KJV

And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the Lord.
