I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. |
I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; |
I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able, |
|
I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. |
I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not yet strong enough [to be ready for it]; but even yet you are not strong enough [to be ready for it], |
Milk I fed you, not solid food, for not yet were you able to assimilate the latter. In fact, not even yet at the present time are you able to do so. |
|
And my practice has been to feed you, as it were, with “milk” and not with “meat.” You were unable to digest “meat” in those days, and I don’t believe you can do it now. |
I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you could not take it. Why, you cannot take it even now. |
I have fed 4222 you 5209 with milk, 1051 and 2532 not 3756 with meat: 1033 for 1063 hitherto ye were not 3768 able 1410 to bear it, neither 3777 yet 2089 now 3568 are ye able. 1410 |
