兄弟乎、我依常情而言、人之約既定、則無得增減之、

弟兄们，我且照着人的常话说：虽然是人的文约，若已经立定了，就没有能废弃或加增的。

弟兄们，我照着人的观点说，人的遗嘱一经确定，没有人能废弃或加增。

兄弟乎、吾試因人所言言之、人之盟約既定、則無得而增損之、

兄弟乎、我且按人之恆情言之、人之約書既定、則莫能廢之增之、

Brothers and sisters, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case.

Brothers and sisters, let me give you an example from everyday life. No one can get rid of an official agreement between people. No one can add to it. It can’t be changed after it has been made. It is the same with God’s covenant agreement.

To give a human example, brothers: even with a man-made covenant, no one annuls it or adds to it once it has been ratified.

Dear brothers and sisters, here’s an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or amend an irrevocable agreement, so it is in this case.

Brothers and sisters, I’m using a human illustration. No one sets aside or makes additions to a validated human will.

Brothers and sisters, I speak in terms of human relations: even though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been ratified, no one sets it aside or adds conditions to it.

Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man’s covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.

Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.

Brothers, I’m using a human illustration. No one sets aside or makes additions to even a human covenant that has been ratified.

Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though[ it be] but a man’s covenant, yet[ if it be] confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

Brothers and sisters, I offer an example from everyday life: When a covenant has been ratified, even though it is only a human contract, no one can set it aside or add anything to it.

Brothers, speaking of human terms, though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been confirmed, no one makes it void or adds to it.

既死則遺命堅矣、命之者尚在、遺命有庸乎、

因爾形軀之弱、我則以常人所言言之、爾曹曾獻肢體為不潔不法之僕、以至無度、今宜獻肢體為義之僕、以至成聖、

昔我於以弗所、若效常人鬥獸、有何益哉、若死者不見起、毋寧式飲式食、蓋明日死矣、

我且依人而言、若我之不義彰上帝義、我將何言、上帝降怒為不義乎、
