"For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that. "
— James 4:15, American Standard Version
“For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.”
“For you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will both live, and do this or that."”
“You ought to say instead,“If the Lord is willing, then we will live and do this or that.””
“For what is your life? It is a vapour which appeareth for a little while and afterwards shall vanish away. For that you should say: If the Lord will, and, If we shall live, we will do this or that.”
“But the right thing to say would be, If it is the Lord's pleasure and if we are still living, we will do this and that.”
“For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.”
One only is the lawgiver and judge, even he who is able to save and to destroy: but who art thou that judgest thy neighbor?
Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain:
whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. What is your life? For ye are a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.
But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.
To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
