Hebrews 9:17⥂
KJV:
For a testament [is] of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
BSB:
because a will does not take effect until the one who made it has died; it cannot be executed while he is still alive.
Greek:
διαθήκη γὰρ ἐπὶ νεκροῖς βεβαία, ἐπεὶ μήποτε [ • ] ἰσχύει ὅτε ζῇ ὁ διαθέμενος.
