Ezra 4:22
Thomson 1808
See that you merit praise in executing this, lest peradventure the desolation be fitted up to the prejudice of kings.
Brenton 1851
See that ye be careful of the decree, not to be remiss concerning this matter, lest at any time destruction should abound to the harm of kings.
Greek · Brenton
πεφυλαγμένοι ἦτε ἄνεσιν ποιῆσαι περὶ τούτου, μή ποτε πληθυνθῇ ἀφανισμὸς εἰς κακοποίησιν βασιλεῦσι.
