If ye say, How we will persecute him! And that the root of the matter is found in me;

If you say, How cruel we will be to him! because the root of sin is clearly in him:

Αλλα σεις επρεπε να ειπητε, Δια τι κατατρεχομεν αυτον; επειδη η ριζα του πραγματος ευρισκεται εν εμοι.

But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?
