"Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,"
Audio not available for this verse
For fear that if he makes a start and is not able to go on with it to the end, all who see it will be laughing at him,
in order that, having laid the foundation of it, and not being able to finish it, all who see it do not begin to mock at him,
Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
Lest perhaps after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
lest that he having laid a foundation, and not being able to finish, all who are beholding may begin to mock him,
