-Jesus is describing something that could have happened but did not. Some translators may need to make it clear what Jesus was implying when he said this. Alternate translation: "I will not rebuke them, for if these people were to be silent" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-hypo]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
