Letter of Jeremiah 35

They can’t save a person from death or rescue a weak person from a strong one.
Likewise they are not able to give either wealth or money; if one makes a vow to them and does not keep it, they will not require it.
They cannot save anyone from death or rescue the weak from the strong.
Likewise they are not able to give either wealth or money; if one makes a vow to them and does not keep it, they will not require it.
In like manner they may neither give riches, neither yield evil (thing). If any man maketh a vow to them, and yieldeth not, they ask not (for) this. [Also neither they may or be able to give riches, neither yield evil thing. If any man shall avow to them, and shall not yield, neither they require, or ask, (for) this thing.]
