Why not say, as some slanderously claim that we say, “Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is deserved!
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), “Let us do evil, that good may come?” Those who say so are justly condemned.
World English Bible (WEB)
And{G2532} not{G3361} rather,(as{G2531} we be slanderously reported{G987}{(G5743)}, and{G2532} as{G2531} some{G5100} affirm{G5346}{(G5748)} that we{G2248} say{G3004}{(G5721)},){G3754} Let us do{G4160}{(G5661)} evil{G2556}, that{G2443} good{G18} may come{G2064}{(G5632)}? whose{G3739} damnation{G2917} is{G2076}{(G5748)} just{G1738}.
Strong's King James
(8) And why not, as some say, we're slanderously blaspheming, saying that, "Let's do evil, in order that good may come?" Their condemnation is righteous!
The F.O.G
[8] Why not say – as some slanderously claim we teach – "Let's do evil so good may result"? Such thinking deserves condemnation. Such twisted logic perverts grace into license.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and not, as we are evil spoken of, and as certain affirm us to say—‘We may do the evil things, that the good ones may come?’ whose judgment is righteous.
Young's Literal Translation
