Christian Standard BibleOther versions

English

⁸And why not say, just as some people slanderously claim we say, “Let us do what is evil so that good may come”?^l Their condemnation is deserved!

And why not do evil that good may come?—as some people slanderously charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just.

Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—“Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is just!

And some people even slander us by claiming that we say, “The more we sin, the better it is!” Those who say such things deserve to be condemned.

And why not (as we are slandered, and as some affirm that we say), “Let us do evil, in order that good may come of it”? Their condemnation is just!

And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
