若不此之務、而彼此相噬相吞、其不同歸於盡也幾希。

If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.

If you say or do things that harm one another, watch out! You could end up destroying one another.

But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.

But if you are always biting and devouring one another, watch out! Beware of destroying one another.

But if you bite and devour one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another.

But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!

But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

But if you bite and devour one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another.

But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

However, if you continually bite and devour one another, beware that you are not consumed by one another.

for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men?

But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.Where do wars and fightings among you come from? Don’t they come from your pleasures that war in your members?You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask.You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.

For I am afraid that by any means, when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you don’t desire, that by any means there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, or riots,

For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.

But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?No, but you yourselves do wrong and defraud, and that against your brothers.

Let’s not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying one another.

Beware of the dogs; beware of the evil workers; beware of the false circumcision.

Righteousness will be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his waist.The wolf will live with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the young goat, the calf, the young lion, and the fattened calf together; and a little child will lead them.The cow and the bear will graze. Their young ones will lie down together. The lion will eat straw like the ox.The nursing child will play near a cobra’s hole, and the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den.They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth will be full of the knowledge of Yahweh, as the waters cover the sea.

One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

The envy also of Ephraim will depart, and those who persecute Judah will be cut off. Ephraim won’t envy Judah, and Judah won’t persecute Ephraim.

Then Abner called to Joab, and said,“ Shall the sword devour forever? Don’t you know that it will be bitterness in the latter end? How long will it be then, before you ask the people to return from following their brothers?”Joab said,“ As God lives, if you had not spoken, surely then in the morning the people would have gone away, and not each followed his brother.”
