Phrase of Scripture		Correlating Passages

If they sin		"The second clause of this verse, as it is here translated, renders this supposition entirely nugatory; for if there be no man that sinneth not, it is useless to say, if they sin: but this objection is removed by rendering the original, ""If they shall sin against thee, (for there is no man that, lo yechetai, may not sin;"") i.e., there is no man impeccable or infallible; none that is not liable to transgress."
