Okay, I guess this is tougher than I thought. Here is what you need to do, step- by-step: (1) open the link to LXX (Septuagint) and read verse 9.6; (2) copy it and paste it in your editor. (3) return to FR and open the link to KJV and read verse 9.6; (4) compare the LXX verse 9.6 with the verse in KJV. Can you do that?

On the second thought, let me do it for you, BD: I will even outline in blue and red the words radically differ in meaning and context between LXX and KJV:

Now, verse 9.8:
