wherefore also there sprang of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand, which is by the sea-shore, innumerable.

So that from one man, who was near to death, came children in number as the stars in heaven, or as the sand by the seaside, which may not be numbered.

Δια τουτο και εξ ενος, μαλιστα νενεκρωμενου, εγεννηθησαν καθως τα αστρα του ουρανου κατα το πληθος, και ως η αμμος η παρα το χειλος της θαλασσης, ητις δεν δυναται να αριθμηθη.

Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
