26And we said, Let us now set to work to build an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice,
26And we said, Let us now set to work to build an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice,
23 that we have built for ourselves an altar to turn from following Jehovah, and if it is to offer up burnt-offering and oblation on it, and if to offer peace-offerings thereon, let Jehovah himself require it from us;
24 and if we have not done it from fear of this thing, saying, In future your children will speak to our children, saying, What have ye to do with Jehovah the God of Israel?
25 Jehovah hath made the Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad, ye have no portion in Jehovah! And so shall your children make our children cease from fearing Jehovah.
26 And we said, Let us now set to work to build an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice,
27 but to be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we might do service to Jehovah before him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings; that your children may not say to our children in future, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.
28 And we said, If it shall be that in future they so say to us and to our generations, we will say, Behold the pattern of the altar of Jehovah which our fathers made, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice, but as a witness between us and you.

22:26Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice:

22:26Therefore we said, Let as now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice:
22:26Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice:
22:26|Therefore we said, 'Let's now prepare to build ourselves an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice;
22:26And we say, Pray let us prepare for ourselves to build the altar — not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice —
22:26Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice:
