Hebrew אל־תתן את־פיך לחטיא את־בשרך ואל־תאמר לפני המלאך כי שגגה היא למה יקצף האלהים על־קולך וחבל את־מעשה ידיך׃
Greek μη δως το στομα σου του εξαμαρτησαι την σαρκα σου και μη ειπης προ προσωπου του θεου οτι αγνοια εστιν ινα μη οργισθη ο θεος επι φωνη σου και διαφθειρη τα ποιηματα χειρων
Latin Ne dederis os tuum ut peccare facias carnem tuam, neque dicas coram angelo : Non est providentia : ne forte iratus Deus contra sermones tuos dissipet cuncta opera manuum tuarum.
KJV Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?
