30
and the brother following took her [and the second took her], and he is dead without son;
31
and the third took her; also and all seven, and they left not seed [and left no seed], but be dead;
32
and the last of all the woman is dead. [the last of all and the woman is dead.]

36
neither they shall be able to die more; for they be even with angels, and be the sons of God, since they be the sons of the rising again from death [since they be the sons of rising again].
37
