- Septuagint (Swete)
- μὴ ποιῆσαι ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτοῦ ἄδικον· καὶ πᾶς ὁ λόγος οὐ λήσεται ἀπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ σὺ στήσῃ ἐξ ἐναντίας.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- אֽוֹ עָשִׂ֤יתִי בנפשו שֶׁ֔קֶר וְכָל דָּבָ֖ר לֹא יִכָּחֵ֣ד מִן הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ וְאַתָּ֖ה תִּתְיַצֵּ֥ב מִנֶּֽגֶד
Haydock's commentary
My own. Some copies of the Hebrew and Septuagint read, "his;" others, my, &c. The soldier would have acted against his conscience, and exposed his life to danger, if he had transgressed the king's order. (Haydock)
By me? or, omitting the mark of interrogation, "Thou wouldst have declared thyself against me." (Calmet)
