For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. |
for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. |
for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. |
For prophecy never had its origin in the will of men, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. |
For no prophecy ever originated because some man willed it [to do so – it never came by human impulse], but men spoke from God who were borne along (moved and impelled) by the Holy Spirit. |
for not by the desire of man did prophecy come aforetime, but being carried along by the Holy Spirit men spoke words from God who is the ultimate source [of what they spoke]. |
No prophecy came because a man wanted it to: men of God spoke because they were inspired by the Holy Spirit. |
for no prophecy has ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. |
For 1063 the prophecy 4394 came 5342 not 3756 in old time 4218 by the will 2307 of man: 444 but 235 holy 40 men 444 of God 2316 spake 2980 as they were moved 5342 by 5259 the Holy 40 Ghost. 4151 |
