Now {G3568} therefore {G3767} why {G5101} tempt ye {G3985} God {G2316}, to put {G2007} a yoke {G2218} upon {G1909} the neck {G5137} of the disciples {G3101}, which {G3739} neither {G3777} our {G2257} fathers {G3962} nor {G3777} we {G2249} were able {G2480} to bear {G941}?

So why are you putting God to the test now by placing a yoke on the neck of the talmidim which neither our fathers nor we have had the strength to bear?

Now then, why do you test God by placing on the necks of the disciples a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear?

Now therefore why make ye trial of God, that ye should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
