Greek(Πάντα γὰρ τὰ βδελύγματα ταῦτα ἐποίησαν οἱ ἄνθρωποι τῆς γῆς, οἱ ὄντες πρότερον ὑμῶν, καὶ ἐμιάνθη ἡ γῆ·)
28
Thomsonthat the land may not become a mortal enemy to you when you pollute it; as it hath been to those nations which were before you.
Brentonand lest the land be aggrieved with you in your polluting it, as it was aggrieved with the nations before you.
