Ephesians 4:9

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

What does “He ascended” mean, except that He also descended to the lower parts of the earth?

World English Bible (WEB)

Now this, “He ascended,” what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?

Strong's King James

(Now{G1161} that he ascended{G305}{(G5627)}, what{G5101} is it{G2076}{(G5748)} but{G1508} that{G3754} he{G2597} also{G2532} descended{G2597}{(G5627)} first{G4412} into{G1519} the lower{G2737} parts{G3313} of the earth{G1093}?

The F.O.G *

(9) Now this, "He ascended," what does it mean? If not that He also descended into the lower parts of the land?

The F.O.G Message *

[9] Now this phrase "He ascended" implies He first descended to the lowest parts of the earth, like a deep-sea explorer plumbing the ocean's depths.

Young's Literal Translation

and that, he went up, what is it except that he also went down first to the lower parts of the earth?
