|
|

# as we are slandered as saying

|
|

"as some lie to others, claiming that this what we are saying"

# evil ... good
|
|
|
|
These Greek words are plural: "evil deeds ... good things"

|
|
# good may come
|
|
|
|
You may need to make explicit that the speakers expect to receive good things. Alternate translation: "good things may come to us" or "we may receive good things" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
