And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake. |
And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke. |
And yet they were unable to cope with the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking. |
but they could not stand up against his wisdom or the Spirit by whom he spoke. |
But they were not able to resist the intelligence and the wisdom and [the inspiration of] the Spirit with which and by Whom he spoke. |
and they continued to be unable to stand up against his wisdom and the Spirit by whom he was speaking. |
but found themselves quite unable to stand up against either his practical wisdom or the spiritual force with which he spoke. |
but they could not cope with his good practical sense and the spiritual power with which he usually spoke. |
