Matthew 7:18

7:18 A good tree is not able to bear bad fruit, nor a bad tree to bear good fruit.

Acts 4:20

4:20 for it is impossible ¹  for us not to speak about what we have seen and heard.”

Romans 6:2

6:2 Absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it?

Galatians 5:17

5:17 For the flesh has desires that are opposed to the Spirit, and the Spirit has desires ²  that are opposed to the flesh, for these are in opposition to ³  each other, so that you cannot do what you want.

Titus 1:2

1:2 in hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the ages began. ⁴ 

[4:20]  ¹ tn Grk “for we are not able not to speak about what we have seen and heard,” but the double negative, which cancels out in English, is emphatic in Greek. The force is captured somewhat by the English translation “it is impossible for us not to speak…” although this is slightly awkward.

[5:17]  ² tn The words “has desires” do not occur in the Greek text a second time, but are repeated in the translation for clarity.

[5:17]  ³ tn Or “are hostile toward” (L&N 39.1).

[1:2]  ⁴ tn Grk “before eternal ages.”
