# Why not say ... come"?
Here Paul raises a question of his own, to show how ridiculous the argument of his imaginary adversary is. Alternate translation: "I might as well be saying ... come!'" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# as we are falsely reported to say
"as some lie to others, claiming that this what we are saying"
# The judgment on them is just
It will be only fair when God condemns these enemies of Paul for telling lies about what Paul has been teaching.
