Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. |
You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin. |
You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood (as far as blood) in your striving against sin; |
|
In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. |
You have not yet struggled; fought agonizingly against sin, nor have you yet resisted and withstood to the point of pouring out your [own] blood. |
Not yet have you withstood to the extent of blood, struggling against sin. |
|
After all, your fight against sin has not yet meant the shedding of blood, |
You have not yet, as you have struggled on against sin, resisted to the point of pouring out your blood, |
