WK Translation Notes

+
a
The bold type expresses the personal pronouns used with emphasis.
b
There is more doubt as to the emphatic "we" and "to you" in the beginning of verse 4; but the more common "of you" is retained in the last clause with excellent witnesses (and the T. R.), though recent critics lean to the well-supported "of us". Both are certainly in sense true. The question is which suits best the context as helping to decide where the external evidence is nearly balanced. But these pronouns are sometimes confused in the best copies, as they differ by one letter only.
