¹ tn Heb “What should we do for them, for the remaining ones, concerning wives?”

¹ tn Heb “Surely, from worry concerning a matter we have done this, saying.”

² tn Grk “the things concerning you, [namely,] that.” The ὅτι (hoti) clause is appositional to τὰ περὶ ὑμῶν (ta peri humōn) and therefore “the things concerning you” was not translated.
