Parallel Strong's Berean Study Bible So I sent messengers to them, saying, “I am doing a great work and cannot come down. Why should the work stop while I leave it to go down to you?” Young's Literal Translation And I send unto them messengers, saying, ‘A great work I am doing, and I am not able to come down; why doth the work cease when I let it alone, and have come down unto you?’ Holman Christian Standard Bible So I sent messengers to them, saying, “ I am doing a great work and cannot come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and go down to you? ” New American Standard Bible So I sent messengers to them, saying, "I am doing a great work and I cannot come down. Why should the work stop while I leave it and come down to you?" King James Bible And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I [am] doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you?
