But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by[ them that are] no people,[ and] by a foolish nation I will anger you.

我再说，以色列人不知道吗？先有摩西说：“我要用那不成子民的，惹动你们的愤恨；我要用那无知的民，触动你们的怒气。”

我再问，以色列人不知道吗？先有摩西说：“我要以不成国的激起你们嫉妒；我要以愚顽的国惹起你们发怒。”

我再问，以色列人不知道吗？先有摩西说：“我要以不成国的激起你们嫉妒；我要以愚顽的国惹起你们发怒。”

我再问，难道以色列人不知道吗？首先，摩西说：“我要借无名之民挑起你们的嫉妒，用愚昧的国民激起你们的怒气。”

我再说：以色列人真的不明白吗？首先，摩西说：“我要使你们对那不是子民的生嫉妒，对那无知的民族起忿怒。”

我再说“以色列人难道不明白吗？”首先，摩西说：“我要用不是子民的，激起你们的嫉妒之心，用无知的民族激起你们的怒气。”

我再說，以色列人不知道嗎？先有摩西說：我要用那不成子民的惹動你們的憤恨；我要用那無知的民觸動你們的怒氣。

我再問，以色列人不知道嗎？先有摩西說：「我要以不成國的激起你們嫉妒；我要以愚頑的國惹起你們發怒。」

我再問，以色列人不知道嗎？先有摩西說：「我要以不成國的激起你們嫉妒；我要以愚頑的國惹起你們發怒。」

我再問，難道以色列人不知道嗎？首先，摩西說：「我要藉無名之民挑起你們的嫉妒，用愚昧的國民激起你們的怒氣。」

我再說：以色列人真的不明白嗎？首先，摩西說：“我要使你們對那不是子民的生嫉妒，對那無知的民族起忿怒。”

但是我說，以色列難道不明白麼？先有摩西說：『我要激動你們羨妒那不是國民的，我要惹動你們氣忿那蒙昧的國民。』

我再說「以色列人難道不明白嗎？」首先，摩西說：「我要用不是子民的，激起你們的嫉妒之心，用無知的民族激起你們的怒氣。」

我又曰、以色列民豈未知乎、昔摩西云、我將以異族發爾憤、且將以蚩氓觸爾怒、

余又曰、以色列人、豈未知乎、昔摩西曰、我將子異民、使爾發奮、子頑民、使爾激勵、

我又曰、以色列人豈未知乎、昔摩西曰、我將以異民、激爾嫉妒、將以愚民、激爾忿怒、

然則義塞人果未悟耶？摩西書曰：『吾將子異民、使爾激勵；子頑民、使爾發憤。』

Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,“ I will make you envious by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”

Again I ask,“ Didn’t Israel understand?” First, Moses says,“ I will use people who are not a nation to make you jealous. I will use a nation that has no understanding to make you angry.”( Deuteronomy 32:21)

But I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says,“ I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry.”

But I ask, did the people of Israel really understand? Yes, they did, for even in the time of Moses, God said,“ I will rouse your jealousy through people who are not even a nation. I will provoke your anger through the foolish Gentiles.”

But I ask,“ Did Israel not understand?” First, Moses said, I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation that lacks understanding.

But I say, surely Israel did not know, did they? First Moses says,“ I will make you jealous with those who are not a nation, With a foolish nation I will anger you.”

But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:“ I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, I will move you to anger by a foolish nation.”

But I say, Did Israel not know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, With a nation void of understanding will I anger you.

But I ask,“ Did Israel not understand?” First, Moses said: I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation that lacks understanding.

But again I ask, didn’t Israel understand? First Moses says,“ I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; with a senseless nation I will provoke you to anger.”

But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says,“ I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation. I will make you angry with a nation void of understanding.”

They have moved me to jealousy with[ that which is] not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with[ those which are] not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but[ rather] through their fall salvation[ is come] unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.

If by any means I may provoke to emulation[ them which are] my flesh, and might save some of them.

For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful,[ and] hating one another.

Which in time past[ were] not a people, but[ are] now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see;[ and] their hearts, that they cannot understand.And none considereth in his heart, neither[ is there] knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten[ it]: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say,[ Is there] not a lie in my right hand?

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

But this I say, brethren, the time[ is] short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;

Every man is brutish in[ his] knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image[ is] falsehood, and[ there is] no breath in them.

Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to[ them which were] not my people, Thou[ art] my people; and they shall say,[ Thou art] my God.

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified[ him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock[ is] a doctrine of vanities.

What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?

Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

To declare,[ I say], at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.They that make them are like unto them;[ so is] every one that trusteth in them.

What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise[ you] not.
