Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day [is] a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.
Then they said {H559} one {H376} to another {H7453}, We do {H6213} not well: this day {H3117} is a day {H3117} of good tidings {H1309}, and we hold our peace {H2814}: if we tarry {H2442} till the morning {H1242} light {H216}, some mischief {H5771} will come {H4672} upon us: now therefore come {H3212}, that we may go {H935} and tell {H5046} the king's {H4428} household {H1004}.
But finally they said to each other, "What we are doing is wrong. At a time of good news like this, we shouldn't keep it to ourselves. If we wait even till morning, we will earn only punishment; so come on, let's go and tell the king's household."
Finally, they said to one another, “We are not doing what is right. Today is a day of good news. If we are silent and wait until morning light, our sin will overtake us. Now, therefore, let us go and tell the king’s household.”
Then they said one to another, We do not well; this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, punishment will overtake us; now therefore come, let us go and tell the king’s household.
