# What have we said among ourselves against you?
|
|
|
|
The people ask this question in order to claim that they have said nothing against God. This can be expressed as a statement. Alternate translation: "We have not said anything among ourselves against you." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
